Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani announced today, Tuesday, that the mission of the so-called international coalition forces in Iraq will soon end.
Al-Sudani said in an interview with the American Bloomberg channel and agency that “the justifications for the presence of the international coalition in Iraq have ended and Iraq 2024 is not Iraq 2014.”
He added that “the terrorist organization ISIS no longer poses a threat to the Iraqi state,” noting that “Iraq has moved from a phase of wars to a phase of stability.” He continued
, “We have started a frank dialogue with the international coalition and formed a bilateral committee to arrange the withdrawal of coalition forces.”
On the other hand, the Prime Minister stressed Iraq’s commitment to OPEC decisions in a way that maintains oil prices and the equation between the interests of producers and consumers.
Al-Sudani said: “We have two options regarding exporting oil through the port of Ceyhan, either amending the contracts, which was rejected by the companies contracting with the region, or amending the budget law, and this matter requires political consensus.”
