[IraqiNews.com] Iraqi Health Minister Adila Hammoud said on Sunday that the Iraqi government is keen on cooperation with Iran in the field of health and medical treatment and carrying out the MoU already signed by the two countries.

Adila Hammoud told IRNA that Iraq welcomes cooperation with Iran in the field of health, medical treatment and sanitation and believes that the cooperation will strengthen the friendly and brotherly ties between the two countries.

She termed visit paid to Iraq by Iranian first Vice-President last week as 'Successful' and said that outcome of the visit would help consolidation of bilateral ties in all fields.

Hammoud said that in the meeting with her Iranian counterpart Seyed Hassan Hashemi in Tehran, they signed a Memorandum of Understanding last January.

She said that the MoU included cooperation in pharmaceuticals, medical equipment, food security, hospital services and construction of hospital in Iraq.

She added that in last week visit of the Iran's Health Minister to Iraq accompanying the Iranian Vice-President, they discussed and exchanged views on ways to carry out the Tehran MoU.

Adila Hammoud said that delivery of medical treatment services to Iraqi patients in Iran and admission of Iraqi doctors in Iran's universities to go ahead with specialized courses are 'very important'.

She called for dispatching Iranian specialists to Iraq for medical treatment of Iraqi patients.
