Mawazine News – Baghdad
On Saturday, Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani stressed the non-reversal of the decision to end the presence of the international coalition from Iraq, noting that everyone is participating in the negotiations of the American presence, which will be applied in Kurdistan as well.
“The decision to withdraw foreign forces from Iraq is taken in advance and before the events in Gaza, but the current situation in the region necessitated the acceleration of negotiations,” Al-Sudani said in a televised interview followed by Mawazine News.
He added that “the negotiations between Baghdad and Washington are in which most of the political forces within the state administration coalition participate and will be applied throughout Iraq, including Kurdistan.”
He pointed out that “Iraq has been able to liberate its territory and is able to protect itself through its security services during the coming period without the need for an international alliance.”
