The Iranian president, on a landmark visit to neighbouring Iraq, has called for US troops' withdrawal from the war-torn nation, saying that the country will "live in peace" without them.

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad made the call on Monday while signing seven pacts with Iraq in the areas of trade, industry and transport.



"Without the presence of the foreign troops the region will live in peace and brotherhood," said Ahmadinejad.

"We believe that the forces that travelled thousands of kilometres to reach here must leave the region, and must hand over responsibility to the people of the region."
