Iraqi official denies MKO camp under siege
Asked if the government is planning to close down Camp Ashraf, Staff Major General Khalaf says:”As an Interior Ministry, we are responsible for certain matters relating to the camp, such as providing protection for the camp and securing its outer perimeter; guaranteeing the entry of humanitarian goods as stipulated by international agreements – a matter that we handle in transparent fashion; and ensuring that the camp’s residents do not interact with security forces, and all three of these objectives are being met.”
