MP Haider Al-Salami stated on Monday that america is not considering withdrawing from Iraq, stressing that what’s being proposed in this regard is simply “a brand new lie to mislead public opinion.”
Al-Salami stated in a assertion to dinaropinions.com that “Washington treats Iraq as a army base and no longer a sovereign state,” indicating that “its navy presence is connected to the importance of Iraq to its strategy in the place.”
He introduced that “the big numbers of american soldiers in Iraq reveal the fact of the situation, and there are not any indications of any aim to withdraw, because their persevered presence serves Washington’s pastimes on the price of the national interest.”
The British website “middle East online” quoted Pentagon officials as announcing that the Trump administration is considering plans to remain in Iraq for the longest possible length, in a flow that actually reveals that its withdrawal does now not serve its goals.
