“Toppling the (political) system of Iraq, not me, is their objective,” Maliki said in an interview with Lebanon-based al-Mayadeen satellite channel which was founded by journalists who left the al-Jazeera news channel.
The Iraqi premier alleged that both Arab states are trying to topple his government through financing opposition groups, holding anti-government meetings and inducing that a “tribal system” is governing the country.
Maliki said that major political posts in the country have been equally distributed between all Iraqi ethnic and religious groups under the constitution.
“Look at your nations and see whether your people have the rights and privileges that Iraqi people have,” Maliki asked the Qatari and Saudi authorities.
