Iraq has summoned the United Arab Emirates ambassador in Baghdad over a controversial remark the Emirati foreign minister recently made. Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed bin Al Nahyan accused Iraqi Popular Units of having links with the terrorists in Iraq and Syria. But as our correspondent Altaf Ahmad reports, the comments are seen as a bid to dispirit Iraqi forces fighting against the Persian Gulf Arab Nations' proxies in Iraq and Syria.
