Iran's hard-line newspapers on Monday called on Iraqis to oppose a strategic framework agreement that is being negotiated between Iraq and the US and accused Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki of caving in to American demands over the pact.
The Jomhuri-e-Eslami daily said in a front-page editorial that the agreement is a "capitulation the US has imposed on the oppressed Iraqi people," And urged Iraqis to turn to "a popular revolution" that would bring about the “expulsion of the occupiers" from Iraq. (AP)
