CAIRO: The Arab League Secretary General Nabil Al Arabi welcomed Saturday the United Nations Security Council's resolution No. 2107 on ending Iraq's Chapter VII status.
In a press statement, Al-Arabi congratulated Iraqi and Kuwaiti people on the resolution which was the result of constructive and fruitful cooperation between the two nations.
He applauded the move which, as he expected, would have great positive impacts on Iraqi-Kuwaiti relations as well as on Iraq's restoration of its normal relations and status in the regional and international arenas.
Al-Arabi noted that dialogue between the Kuwait and Iraqi governments has helped reach agreements and understandings over the outstanding obligations under the relevant Chapter VII.

On June 27, The UN Security Council voted unanimously to get Iraq partially out of Chapter VII of the UN Charter, transfer the files of the missing Kuwaitis and property under the responsibility of the UN Assistance Mission for Iraq (UNAMI), and put an end to the 1999 post of the High-Level Coordinator for those files.(QNA)
