The head of the National State Forces Alliance, Ammar al-Hakim, received the head of the Christian, Yazidi and Mandaean Endowments Diwan, Rami Joseph Aghajan. He stressed during the meeting, according to a statement by his media office, the necessity of preserving the Iraqi components, empowering them, caring for them, and compensating some of them who were harmed by terrorism and sectarian and ethnic targeting, and that the presence of the Iraqi components in the general Iraqi scene should not be linked to their numbers, as the qualitative addition is not measured by numbers. He pointed to the importance of preserving diversity and moving it to the stage of managing diversity and investing in the Iraqi components to be bridges of Iraq to the peoples of the region and the world, and continuous communication and coordination with the concerned parties to confront the intellectual and social challenges facing our societies. The head of the State Forces Alliance stressed the importance of integration between the Christian, Yazidi and Mandaean Endowments Diwan with the religious institutions of the other components. He called for "preserving the properties and endowments of citizens from the Iraqi components, and for dialogue and cultural exchange and starting from the common humanity that characterizes all religions."
