ENDING THE “MILITIAS” AND THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ERBIL AND BAGHDAD ARE ON THE TABLE FOR MASOUD BARZANI AND TOM BARRACK

 Kurdish leader Masoud Barzani discussed with US President’s Special Envoy for Iraq and Syria, Tom Barak, on Tuesday, ways to enhance stability in Iraq and the Kurdistan Region. While Barak stressed the need for Baghdad to restrict weapons to the state and end the influence of “militias,” Barzani pointed to the importance of the federal government’s commitment to the principles of partnership, balance, and consensus within the framework of the constitution.

A statement from Barzani’s headquarters, received by Shafaq News Agency, stated that Masoud Barzani received Ambassador Tom Barrack at the Salahaddin resort. During the meeting, Barrack emphasized that Iraq and the region need stability, and that the Kurdistan Region plays an important and essential role in the present and future, while expressing his admiration for the development and progress witnessed in the Kurdistan Region, describing it as exemplary.

For his part, Barzani stressed that the Kurdistan Region has always been a stabilizing factor, and that it supports dialogue and diplomatic solutions to all of Iraq’s and the region’s problems, noting that the Kurdistan Region has never been part of the problems, but has always been unfairly harmed by the consequences of wars and conflicts in the region. 

Barzani also stressed the need for the Middle East to move towards a stable situation that brings prosperity to the region’s inhabitants. In another part of the meeting, the importance of joint work and coordination between the Kurdistan Region and the new Iraqi government was highlighted. 

The US envoy spoke about the need for stability in the Iraqi political system and the protection of the state’s role in controlling unofficial armed forces, reiterating his country’s support for the Iraqi federal prime minister in the process of restricting weapons to the state and ending the influence of militias, as stated in the statement.

Regarding the new Iraqi government, Barzani affirmed his support for Prime Minister Ali al-Zubaidi, stressing the need for everyone to learn from the mistakes of the past and to work on the basis of the principles of partnership, balance, and consensus, and within the framework of the constitution.  

In another part of the meeting, views were exchanged on the situation in the region and its equations, and the two sides agreed to work together according to common priorities to enhance the stability of Iraq and the Kurdistan Region, and to build a long-term strategic friendship in economic aspects and to encourage investment.

TRUMP’S PLAN FOR IRAQ AND THE MIDDLE EAST IS SLOWLY BEING UNVEILED

If you recall I have talked about a huge plan by the Trump administration for the middle east and how it definitely includes Iraq in a BIG way. Is anyone of these RV intel gurus  even talking about all this good news? Trump wants to bring investors into Iraq but there must be Stability and Security first, thus his demands to rid Iraq of Iranian influence. 

So, in this recent set of articles, we read more about Trump’s plans for Iraq. Yes, it is much more than most RV intel gurus image or even know about. If this plan is executed successfully, won’t they have to get the dinar back on track and on FOREX? Choo, Choo! 😊 Here are the articles titled “FINAL SIGNING AT THE WHITE HOUSE… AL-ZAIDI TO LAUNCH A “SECOND IRAQ” IN MID-JULY. – BARAK’S PLAN: BAGHDAD AS THE HEART OF A “NEW MIDDLE EAST”

Al-Zaidi and Barak
Ali al-Zaidi is close to setting a political precedent that could make him one of the fastest Iraqi prime ministers to reach the White House after assuming office. His anticipated visit to Washington in mid-July is not seen as a mere protocol visit, but rather as an attempt to inaugurate a new phase in the relationship between Baghdad and Washington, more than two decades after the 2003 regime change in Iraq.

Here is the other article titled “POLITICIAN: TRUMP SEEKS TO MAKE BAGHDAD THE GATEWAY TO THE NEW MIDDLE EAST PROJECT”

Political analyst Atheer al-Sharaa believes that “US President Donald Trump is seeking to make Baghdad a gateway to the New Middle East project by imposing his dictates to serve the American agenda.Al-Sharaa told Al-Maalouma that “US envoy Tom Barrack briefed Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi on what Trump wants from Iraq in the coming phase, prior to al-Zaidi’s upcoming visit to Washington.”

That “the United States is striving to make Iraq subservient to its demands and interests in the coming phase, and in return, it will pay increased attention, especially since Trump has a New Middle East plan and seeks to make Baghdad the gateway to this project, which he has championed since 2020.”
