A press source reported that US President Biden dismissed the US ambassador to Baghdad, Elena Romanowski, and appointed another in her place.

The source explained that Biden has nominated Recy Ann Jacobson; For the position of Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the United States to Iraq, replacing Elena Romanowski.

The source indicated, “The American administration worked to change the American ambassador to Baghdad, Elena Romanowski, and at this particular time, due to a number of reasons, especially since the replacement was appointed (extraordinarily).”

He added, “One of the main reasons for changing the US ambassador to Baghdad is due to transferring Iraq’s security and political file to the CIA and the Pentagon.”

The source explained that “taking this step is not in vain, but rather to achieve goals, most notably the demonization of the Popular Mobilization Forces, and the attempt to cast doubt on it on the security front,” noting that “the other goal is the most dangerous, as it represents the activation of ISIS sleeper cells in Iraq.”

He stated, “The Pentagon will also work to create electronic armies and try to put pressure around the Iraqi negotiator, in order to stay as long as possible in the country,” pointing out that “the other thing that Washington is working on is complete control over the Iraqi oil file, and monitoring Iraq’s money.”

The Iraqi government had previously announced the start of bilateral discussions with the American side to try to schedule the removal of foreign forces from the country, especially after the repeated attacks on the security forces and the Popular Mobilization Forces.
