U.S.: Iraqi Gov't Should Address "Unresolved Issues" 
-----------------------------------------------------


 
In Washington, White House spokesperson Josh Earnest said the U.S.
supports the Iraqi government but called on Baghdad to do more to
address political grievances.

Deputy White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest: "These kinds of
challenges don't have a solely military solution. So, while we can
provide important military assistance to improve the security situation
in Iraq, addressing these challenges is going to require a commitment by
the Iraqi leadership, including Prime Minister Maliki, to confront the
kinds of unresolved issues that are facing all of the people in Iraq."
