Shafaq News/ On Wednesday, two Republican members of the US House of Representatives called for immediate sanctions on Iraq, accusing Baghdad of falling fully under Iranian influence and acting as a “puppet” of Tehran.
In a letter addressed to US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Representatives Joe Wilson of South Carolina and Greg Steube of Florida demanded a “comprehensive reassessment” of US-Iraq relations, urging the suspension of all American aid to the Iraqi government until “serious steps” are taken to curb Iran’s dominance.
