rafidainscope - Specialized US political reports have warned of the repercussions of the expected American military withdrawal from Iraq, pointing to a potential decline in direct cooperation between the two governments in the absence of a clear strategy for future
relations. The reports explained that the previous relationship relied heavily on joint security cooperation to combat terrorism, and the end of this military presence requires establishing an alternative framework to ensure continued partnership and prevent the country from sliding into deeper
regional polarization. The analyses emphasized that the upcoming period represents a critical crossroads for bilateral relations, requiring Baghdad to assert full control over its security file to guarantee continued international support and avoid the consequences of political isolation.
