Sudani's visit to Washington. Iraqi insistence on removing the occupier
Information / Baghdad...
Amid assurances that there is an active and serious move by the government and its negotiating delegation with the so-called international coalition to end its presence in Iraq, the Iraqis insist on removing these forces or returning to resisting the American occupier.
The visit of Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani to Washington may be a gateway to ending the US combat presence in Iraq or it may fail if Washington insists on keeping its forces on Iraqi soil, which will give the green light to the Islamic resistance to Resume its operation against the foreign occupier.
In order to explain the most important files that the Sudanese will carry with him to Washington, MP for the Sadiqoun bloc, Muhammad Karim, says that "the prime minister will discuss the file of arming the army, and the development of Iraq's air defenses, In addition to the file of removing the US combat forces.
Karim added that "America will try to impose some files during the next visit, while the governments enjoy political and parliamentary support in moving towards making fateful decisions during the negotiating round, which will begin in the middle of next month, although the government has come a long way in negotiations through the joint committees formed by the two parties."
On the other hand, former MP Ahmed Ali stressed that "the attacks carried out by America on the headquarters of the Iraqi factions represent a violation of the agreement between Baghdad and Washington."
He told Al-Maalouma that "the factions announced their commitment to government decisions to resort to a diplomatic solution to remove US forces."
He pointed out that "the government is past in the file of the exit of Americans from Iraq, and the visit of the Sudanese has put this file among the priorities in the talks that will be held with Biden."
In the same context, Hussein al-Karawi, head of the organizing body of the popular movement for the Belt and Road, said that "the experience with America confirms that its forces will not leave Iraq peacefully.
Al-Karawi told Al-Maalouma that "Washington seeks not to empty the Iraqi arena of the military presence of its forces, so these forces will not leave Iraq without the resistance carrying out jihadist actions to end their presence on Iraqi territory and force them to leave."
Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani said he wanted a "quick and ordered exit" of the US-led international coalition forces from Iraq amid mounting demands that US forces do not remain in Iraq.
"Let's agree on a time frame (for withdrawal) that is quick so as not to prolong the existence and the attacks continue," al-Sudani said in an earlier interview with Reuters news agency, noting that the only way to avoid a regional escalation is to stop the war in Gaza.
