Iraqi Oil Minister Amir Mohammed Rashid Monday urged all the Arab oil exporting countries not to increase oil production in a bid to help Iraq counter attack the US-led invasion.
However, the Iraqi government would continue its oil exports to meet the increasing domestic humanitarian demands for food and medicines despite the ongoing war, Rashid said at a press conference in Baghdad.
He also echoed the Monday national address by President Saddam Hussein, stressing that all the invaders would be defeated.
