During the symposium, the lecturer discussed the concept of national stability and how it can be achieved through a set of internal and external pillars. He explained that the economy is a pivotal factor in enhancing national security, as economic stability directly impacts a state's stability. He also addressed the issue of extremism and terrorism, highlighting their negative repercussions on society and the necessity of confronting them through moderate thought and deterrent security measures.

Dr. Iyad also touched upon administrative and financial corruption, emphasizing that it poses a significant threat to the state's structure and institutions, as it weakens trust between citizens and the authorities. He also pointed out the external influences of neighboring countries and the potential political or economic pressures they might cause, which affect the course of national security.

The lecturer explained that continuous development in the field of national security can only be achieved through cooperation with the international community and benefiting from experiences by holding educational seminars and conferences that raise awareness and support the building of a robust security strategy.

At the conclusion of the symposium, the Dean of the College expressed his deep thanks and appreciation to the lecturer, valuing the effort he put into preparing and delivering his scientific lecture, despite the distance between the university center in Tikrit and the College of Education in Tuz Khurma. He affirmed that this presence embodies the spirit of academic cooperation and Tikrit University's commitment to spreading a culture of security and conscious thinking throughout all its colleges.
