US NETWORK REVEALS TRUMP’S STRATEGY IN IRAQ – URGENT
Oil Price Network revealed in a report published today, Sunday, July 6, 2025, that US President Donald Trump is “moving dynamically in Iraq” to implement a new strategy through which he is attempting to confront Chinese and Russian influence in the world.
The network said, as translated by Baghdad Today, that American involvement in Iraqi affairs “is now becoming increasingly deep,” stressing that “it appears that the American president has a strategy centered around two aspects:
1.Through the first, he is trying to force Iran to negotiate by imposing multiple pressures on it, and thus its influence in Iraq.”
2.”The second aspect of Trump’s strategy is an attempt to draw Iraq closer to the Western, and specifically American, sphere of influence, and to reduce Chinese and Russian influence in Iraq, thereby reducing the influence that is now growing in the region.”
The network concluded its report by noting that Trump is also attempting to achieve these goals by threatening economic sanctions against the government in Baghdad and using Iraq’s relationship with Iran as a means of pressuring the Iraqi government.
