Parliament Member Alia Nassif called on the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to address the United Nations to replace its envoy Jeanine Hennis-Plasschaert, saying that she deliberately hid facts in her reports.

Nassif said, in a statement that Hennis-Plasschaert in its latest report to the Security Council deliberately ignored the role of the national political powers which have condemned violence in all its forms against peaceful demonstrators.

Hennis-Plasschaert ignored the main element behind what is happening in Iraq, which is corruption, Nassif added.
