BAGHDAD, Dec 10 (Reuters) - Iraq's president said on Sunday he rejected a long-anticipated list of recommendations by the bipartisan Iraq Study Group to change U.S. policy in the region.

"I think the Baker-Hamilton report is unfair and unjust," Jalal Talabani, a Kurd, told a news conference at his Baghdad residence.

"It contains very dangerous articles that undermine the sovereignty of Iraq and its constitution," he said.

The report by the Iraq Study Group, led by former U.S. Secretary of State James Baker and Democrat Lee Hamilton, urged more centralised control of Iraq's vast oil wealth and embedding thousands more U.S. advisers in Iraq's security forces.
