What Is The Truth Behind The tweet Attributed to Salman Al-Dossary Regarding Ammar Al-Hakim's Visit To Saudi Arabia And his Request For An Intervention To Resolve The Political Blockage?
A tweet circulated on social media, attributed to the journalist (Salman Al-Dossary), said: "Mr. Al-Hakim attended with his head down, asking the Crown Prince to intervene to solve the difficult political impasse that Iraqis live in, in return reducing Iraqi oil exports, for 10 years and finding ways to cooperate with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and to meet any demand requested by our dear government".
The Truth
The tweet circulated is fake, and the Saudi writer and journalist (Salman Al-Dossary) did not share a tweet about the visit of the leader of the Wisdom Movement (Ammar Al-Hakim) and his request from the Saudi Crown Prince (Mohammed bin Salman) to intervene to solve the political impasse in Iraq, keywords were searched in the writer's account on Twitter, which included what was written in the circulating post, and no result appeared for a similar tweet.
It is reported that the last tweet posted by (Al-Dossary) on his Twitter account included his talk about the "Saudis' war against corruption" on August 18, 2022.
And retweeted another tweet about the Crown Prince (Mohammed bin Salman) attending the Red Sea boxing match between the British (Joshua) and his Ukrainian rival (USIC) on August 21, 2022.
