AL-MANDALAWI: THE COMING WEEKS WILL WITNESS THE LEGISLATION OF THE LAW ENDING THE AMERICAN PRESENCE IN IRAQ

Acting Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mohsen Al-Mandalawi, announced on Wednesday that “the coming weeks will witness the legislation of the law ending the American presence” in Iraq, with Baghdad and Washington resuming talks on scheduling the withdrawal of international coalition forces from the country and ending their presence there.

A statement from the office of the First Deputy Speaker of Parliament, a copy of which {Al-Furat News} received, stated that Al-Mandalawi “received, today, Wednesday, the head of the Iranian judiciary, Gholam Hossein Ejei, and his accompanying delegation, in the presence of a number of representatives and the Iranian ambassador to Iraq, Muhammad Al-Sadiq.”

Al-Mandalawi stressed that “the repeated American attacks on Iraqi sites and figures are in violation of international law and would disturb relations between the two countries,” expressing the House of Representatives’ keenness to implement its previous decision to remove foreign forces from the country, while stating that the coming period will witness the enactment of a law to completely end their presence, and that Iraq is a country a strong person who does not need foreign forces to protect him, calling at the same time on Arab and Islamic parliaments to enact laws to hold the Zionist entity and the countries that support it accountable and to criminalize relations with them.”


 Al-Mandalawi said, “The legislative authority is keen to strengthen relations with all countries of the region and neighborhood, and it believes in cooperation and integration with the Iraqi executive and judicial authorities, and supports bilateral agreements and treaties in the field of judicial and legal cooperation between the judicial authorities of the two countries, stressing that Iraq’s role is consistent with Palestine’s, The international system and the countries of the region in particular are responsible for stopping the brutal Zionist aggression in Gaza.”

For his part, the Iranian judiciary chief praised the role of the Iraqi Parliament, describing it as exceptional, as it was the first parliament to enact a law criminalizing normalization with the Zionist entity. This is an honorable position and one to be credited with, stressing that the Iraqi people can manage their country in the way they see fit, while calling for “More cooperation between the parliaments of the two countries on regional issues, especially since Iraq’s position is influential and effective.”

(Of course when the article uses terms like Zionist to describe American forces, it becomes apparent that this is coming from Iranian backed factions who would luv to see the US pull out so they can fill the gap, like ISIS tried to do in 2014.)
