Iran Abandons Iraqi Factions: Does This Mean the End of Iranian Influence in Iraq?
Iran disavows support for Iraqi factions: The end of Iranian influence?
December 9, 2024
In a move that sparked widespread controversy within Iraqi circles, the American website “Media Line” revealed that Iran informed the leaders of the Iraqi armed factions that it is unable to provide them with any kind of support if they are targeted inside Iraq. These statements, which come at a sensitive time, open the door to questions about the future of the relationship between Iran and its allies in Iraq, especially with the escalation of regional and international tensions.
Iraqi political sources consider this Iranian position to be a “message of disavowal” that may carry strategic dimensions indicating a decline in Iran’s ability to play the role of protector of Iraqi factions. This decision, if true, represents a radical change in Iranian policy, which has long relied on supporting these factions to achieve its influence in the region.
On the other hand, observers are raising questions about the reasons for this sudden shift. Is it due to the increasing international pressure on Tehran? Or is Iran no longer able to bear the consequences of supporting these factions in light of its deteriorating economic situation and escalating sanctions?
This development poses major challenges to the Iraqi factions, as they will find themselves in direct confrontation with potential targets without regional or international cover. Will we witness a change in the strategies of these factions? Or are there hidden moves to find a new supporter?
The Iraqi street remains in a state of anticipation of what surprises the coming days may bring, especially since this file directly affects Iraq's security and stability, in addition to its relationship with the regional and international environment.
