Al-Sudani says his meeting with Biden is “an opportunity to put the partnership between the two countries on a new basis.”

Shafaq News/ Prime Minister Muhammad Shiaa Al-Sudani considered, on Thursday, the meeting that he will have with President Joe Biden during his upcoming visit to the United States of America in mid-April “will be an opportunity to put the American-Iraqi partnership on a new and more sustainable basis.”

This was stated in an article published in “Farn Affairs” magazine, today’s issue.

“Our discussions will emphasize the continuing importance of our economic relations, cooperation in combating money laundering and terrorist financing, and the use of political and diplomatic tools to defuse regional tensions,” he wrote in his article.

He added, “The war against terrorism will remain a central topic for our governments,” adding, “We recognize and appreciate the critical role played by the United States and other members of the international coalition to combat ISIS in defeating terrorism.”

Al-Sudani added: This support has helped Iraq achieve stability, make great strides on the path to democracy, the rule of law, and ensure the government’s monopoly on the use of force.

He continued, “The time is right for our relationship to become broader, while recognizing the growing capabilities of our forces to defend Iraq and ensure the safety of its citizens – and to contribute in essential ways to building a prosperous and stable Iraq.”

The Iraqi Prime Minister concluded his article by saying that the relationship “in its new form, our partnership can represent a source of mutual benefit for both our countries, and a driving force for achieving stability in the Middle East.”
