The US Ambassador to Baghdad, Alina Romanowski, announced the start of the joint security dialogue between the United States of America and Iraq in Washington, today, Monday.
Romanowski said on her account on the "X" platform, "Security officials from the United States and Iraq will discuss the future of the international coalition mission and strengthening security cooperation between our two countries."
Negotiations between Baghdad and Washington resumed last February, with the adoption of a deliberate and gradual reduction, leading to the end of the mission of the international coalition forces to combat ISIS, according to official Iraqi statements, to be followed by two other rounds in March and April.
There are about 2,500 American soldiers in Iraq, as part of the international coalition led by Washington since September 2014. The soldiers are distributed across three main sites in Iraq: Ain al-Assad base in Anbar, Harir base in Erbil, and Camp Victoria adjacent to Baghdad International Airport. In addition to the American forces, there are French, Australian, and British forces operating within the coalition forces, and others within NATO in Iraq. link
