Jahangir Mohammad, the director of the Center for Muslims’ Affairs, says the war in Iraq "caused total de-stability" in the region and led to the emergence of the Daesh Takfiri terrorist group.

The instability in Iraq, Mohammad said, "spread to Syria and it is spreading to Libya." The analyst said the status quo in the region was a consequence of "British foreign policy."

In his interview with Press TV, Mohammad also said it was "totally hypocritical now to blame Muslims and to blame Islam for" the recent terrorist attack in Manchester.
