The source attributed the reason to "technical aspects and other matters related to the circumstances of those countries as well," explaining that "the Iraqi government confirmed that it distributed forms to the countries pledged at the Kuwait Conference for the purpose of rooting the subject and start a plan for reconstruction."
He said that "most of the countries decreased their interaction and there is a chill in the subject," explaining that "Iraq is currently seeking to identify the positions of those countries, and know whether they will keep their promises or not."
