World leaders, including UN chief Ban Ki-moon and US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, on Thursday hailed Baghdad’s progress in combatting violence and stabilising Iraq.

It also acknowledged political and economic progress made, and said that “given the difficult context, these successes are all the more remarkable.”
