According to Kordpress, Fawad Hossein, during a television interview with Al-Sharqiya channel, in response to a question about former Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zibari's criticism that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has been weakened, said: I would not have preferred to answer, but I will answer with a verse from the great Arab poet, Motanbi, which says.

“Among the calamities is the humiliation of the one who does not take care of his ignorance and the speech of the one who does not understand

In the sense that: "one of the calamities is that a person spends his time and energy blaming someone who does not give up his ignorance or trying to convince someone who does not have the ability to understand."

Fawad Hossein added: This statement is in response to Zahibari's statements and the actions he took, and according to him, it was a kind of injustice against him.

He also emphasized: Hoshiar Zibari has no right to evaluate my performance; History will judge and parliamentarians will evaluate. Let Parliament evaluate both of us.
