BAGHDAD (Reuters) — Iraq has appealed to foreign countries to accept members of an Iranian opposition group, which has been based in Iraq for about two decades, but which Baghdad sees as a terrorist group and a diplomatic liability.
Iraqi officials and the People’s Mujahideen of Iran (PMOI) have been at loggerheads for years. The PMOI has run a high-profile campaign alleging abuses by the Iraqi government, and Iraq has labeled its members terrorists and liars.
