Tehran, April 7 (IANS) Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on Saturday said that Iraq should consider the withdrawal of the US forces from the country, Financial Tribune daily reported.
"The presence of American military forces in regional states is to the detriment of these countries and the people in the region, so the Iraqi government needs to take action to urge Americans to pull out their troops from Iraq as soon as possible," said Khamenei during his meeting with visiting Iraqi Prime Minister Adel Abdul Mahdi.
"If the US forces are entrenched in Iraq, it will become difficult to dislodge them in the long run," he explained, according to Xinhua news agency.

Abdul Mahdi arrived in Iran's capital Tehran on Saturday to discuss bilateral ties with the Iranian officials.
