Al-Mutlaq describes the demand to leave the Americans with rudeness and attack "barbaric militias"

salih-1.jpg

 

 BAGHDAD (Reuters) - The head of the Iraqi Front for National Dialogue, Saleh al-Mutlaq, said the issue of the withdrawal of US forces from Iraq was "political bidding, not a real issue."

Al-Mutlaq said in a televised interview, "It is not permissible to say this (to the Americans)," he asked. "Why did you send them?"

"They are demanding the removal of US forces and leaving the militias," he said. "Militias are killing every day and that, stealing the poor sheep, and dismantling the Baiji plant, and leaving no land to spread their influence on them.

"No, the Americans are a civilized opponent, even though we have occupied, but we can talk to him in a civilized way."

"These (militias) are barbarians," he said. "What they want is to make money in any way, so they can not be approached or handed over by the state."

He went on to say, "The issue of the exit of the Americans issue of political bidding rather than a real issue."

The Speaker of the Iraqi Council of Representatives Mohammed Halboussi, confirmed Saturday (February 9, 2019), that the parliament received a proposal adopted by parliamentarians in order to determine the functions of the US presence and the timing of their stay in the country.

Halaboussi said in a press statement that he "did not receive any proposal by parliamentarians aimed at expelling US forces from Iraq."

At the same time, he pointed out that "the proposal adopted by some MPs and received by the presidency of Parliament already aims to determine the functions of the presence of Americans and the nature of their work and the duration of their stay in Iraq." (1)

US President Donald Trump announced his intention to pull out American forces from Syria in mid-December, explaining the move by citing the apparent defeat of the Daesh* terrorist group. However, no exact timeframe was set for the withdrawal.

Baghdad and Washington have reached an agreement allowing US troops to be withdrawn from Syria via Iraqi territory, Chief of Staff and Adviser to the Iraqi prime minister Abdulkarim Hashim Mostafa told Sputnik on Tuesday.

"They (the troops) will pass through Iraqi territory. Of course, there is an agreement between Iraq and the US, our friend and ally, that they will leave Syria soon and they will go through Iraqi territory with the permission of the Iraqi authorities," he added.

 

Washington assured Baghdad that the withdrawal of US troops from Syria will be completed once they finish their military operation east of the Euphrates, and it won't later than 1 April, Abdulkarim Hashim Mostaf stressed.

"Not later than the first of April, everything must be done before this time, this is what the United States told us. As soon as their operation in Eastern Euphrates and Banguze is completed, they will begin to withdraw," Abdulkarim Hashim Mostaf said on the sidelines of the Middle East conference organised by the Valdai international discussion club.

In December, US President Donald Trump declared victory over the Daesh terrorist group and said he would withdraw some 2,000 US troops currently deployed in the Middle Eastern country.

MP Fadel Jaber said on Sunday that he is "mistaken" who believes that the House of Representatives does not have the authority to remove foreign and American forces, pointing out that this does not prevent the use of the opinion of the executive authority.

Jaber said in a statement to Al-Maaloumah that "the Constitution is clear and does not require any interpretation on the validity and the superiority of the decisions of the House of Representatives on the rest of the authorities, especially in the field of national security," adding that "who believes that the parliament does not have the authority or not interested in issuing a resolution or legislation The removal of foreign forces is wrong and accompanied by the Constitution. "

"There is no objection to using the opinion of the executive authority on the removal of all foreign forces or maintaining specific numbers for the need," Jaber said. "No decision or legislation can be issued unless the government's opinion is heard."

The head of a coalition of state law, Nuri al-Maliki, said in televised remarks on Tuesday evening that the House of Representatives does not have the authority to decide to remove US forces from Iraq.Ending / 25

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Iraq will use force to get foreign troops out of its territory if it fails to vote on a draft law to remove foreign troops, Iraqi political analyst Hafiz al-Bishara said on Monday.

"The vote on the law to remove US and foreign forces and even the Turkish from Iraq will be binding on the executive force to enforce the law and force those forces from Iraq. If they do not come out, they are occupiers and Iraq will have to use force to get them out," al-Bishara said in a statement.

"There are more than 150 deputies who have signed a bill to remove foreign forces. There is a legal committee going on drafting a law to remove these forces, while another team in parliament believes that removing US forces from Iraq does not need to enact a law, Strategic framework, which provides for the absence of US troops in Iraq. "

He explained that "the charge d'affaires of the US Embassy in Iraq said that we came to Iraq at the request of the government and we will get out of Iraq at the request of them and this is for the sake of calm, and between the calm and the issuance of the law will start the US agenda to inject a number of the reasons of the broken Iraq to find a presence and Legitimization of their survival. "

Al-Bishara pointed out that "if America withdraws its army from Iraq, it will come with a second army, which is terrorism, but it is practically finished and the parties that used it, especially Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, America, Israel and Turkey, all abandoned their support and left them to their fate."Ending / 25 n

Between the political analyst Hussein Kanani, Thursday, that the Kurds and Sunnis do not want to exit the US from Iraq, but the parliament will say his speech and vote by majority to expel US forces from Iraq, adding that America is seeking to control the western region to cut the supply line from the axis of resistance extending from Iran to Lebanon.

"The Kurdistan region is an ally of the United States and is based on it, but after the failure of the referendum, Shaks and America reflect that Washington did not stand with the region in the referendum, and therefore America is trying today to prove its existence by building new bases and strengthening its presence in the region," Kanani said in a statement.

"There is an American tendency to build camps in the western region, where this area is unique to Washington, especially since it has a large area in addition to the existence of terrorist caches that can be invested by America," he said.

"America is trying to control the western region with the aim of cutting off the supply line from the axis of resistance that extends from Iran, Iraq, Syria and Lebanon, and America is benefiting from the Sunni orientations in the western region hostile to Iran. Suitable for it and one of the best areas for the implementation of the Washington project. "

The failure of the Iraqi political leadership to ensure America's credibility as a reliable ally can have serious consequences for Iraq and the region as a whole, warned Christopher Co Brodsky, a co-author of the US Council on Foreign Relations. 
The withdrawal of US troops from Iraq following an imminent withdrawal from Syria would be a major setback to US interests in regional stability, he said in an article in the National Interest magazine.

He pointed out that the Iraqi political forces have a weight demanded the withdrawal of US troops from Iraq and threatened to put the matter in parliament.

The Iraqi-US relationship has been tense for some time and has been strained since US President Donald Trump said his country's troops were monitoring Iran, raising fears that Iraq could be used as a battlefield between the two countries.

Although security officials in Baghdad acknowledge the advantages of a limited US presence in Iraq's security and stability, widespread discontent with Washington among Iraq's political elite can push and force US forces out of the country.

He pointed out that the Trump administration needs to re-evaluate its policy in Iraq and commit to a strong bilateral relationship between the two countries. 
Said that there are several reasons to keep US troops in Iraq, including that the preacher has not yet been defeated, and the essence of the Trump strategy in the Middle East include confronting Iran, and will lose this strategy much if the troops left Iraq.

He added that US policy makers are questioning whether the deployment of limited troops in Iraq could provide more than the relief teams' solutions to the country's deep institutional problems.

He pointed out that what America can do is help stabilize the volatile region and prevent worse conditions from existing ones, such as a resurgent return to Iraq, a Turkish invasion of Syria, and the creation of space for governments to influence key factors that allow extremist groups to spread.

The Iraqi government has a long way to go to improve these key factors. The recent budget proposal in Iraq has failed to provide enough reconstruction efforts, but the realistic expectation of these efforts is decades, not years.

He said the United States should engage constructively in Iraqi politics in search of common solutions to complex problems instead of building its involvement in the effectiveness of Baghdad in driving away biased politicians to Iran, calling this goal unrealistic and unnecessary.

He concluded that some of the recent signs of progress justify the continuation of the US military presence in Iraq, pointing out that the best of these signs is to increase the effectiveness of the Counterterrorism Department, which was built with the help of US special forces to hunt down "terrorist" groups and intelligence gathering, and was directed to work within large operations To "cleanse" the north and west of Iraq from the duel.

He added that the small size of this department, professionalism and specialized training allowed it to adapt to new roles and perform exceptionally well, despite heavy losses against Dahesh.

Although security officials in Baghdad acknowledge the advantages of a limited US presence in Iraq's security and stability, widespread discontent with Washington among Iraq's political elite can push and force US forces out of the country .

Brodsky pointed out that the Trump administration needs to reassess its policy in Iraq and to commit to a strong bilateral relationship between the two countries .

He said there were several reasons to keep US troops in Iraq, including that the preacher was not defeated, and the core of Trump's strategy in the Middle East includes confronting Iran, and would lose this strategy much if the troops left Iraq .

Brodsky said policymakers in the United States were questioning whether the deployment of limited troops in Iraq could provide more than the relief teams' solutions to the country's deep institutional problems .

What America can do is help stabilize a volatile region and prevent worse conditions, such as a resurgent return to Iraq, a Turkish invasion of Syria, and the creation of space for governments to influence key factors that allow extremist groups to spread. .

The Iraqi government has a long way to go to improve these key factors. The recent budget proposal in Iraq has failed to provide enough reconstruction efforts, but the realistic expectation of these efforts is decades, not years .

He said the United States should engage constructively in Iraqi politics in search of common solutions to complex problems instead of building its involvement in the effectiveness of Baghdad in driving away biased politicians to Iran, calling this goal unrealistic and unnecessary .

He concluded that some of the recent signs of progress justify the continuation of the US military presence in Iraq, pointing out that the best of these signs is to increase the effectiveness of the Counterterrorism Department, which was built with the help of US special forces to hunt down "terrorist" groups and intelligence gathering, and was directed to work within large operations To cleanse the north and west of Iraq from the hasty.

ERBIL - Iraqi PM Adil Abdul-Mahdi has appreciated the presence of the US-led international coalition forces in Iraq, hailing their role in combatting terrorism, the premier's office said in a statement on Thursday.

Abdul-Mahdi made the remarks during a phone call with the UK Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt on Thursday where the Iraqi leader reaffirmed his country's keenness to develop relations with the UK and further cooperations in the fight against terrorism, providing stability, and improving economic prosperity.

The Prime Minister stressed Iraq's keenness to develop relations with Britain and to continue the cooperation in the field of combating terrorism and achieving stability and economic prosperity, the statement added.

The Iraqi prime minister further pointed out that his government places priority on opening trade channels with the neighboring countries and establishing a network of relations that will serve the security and stability of the peoples of the region.

Concerning the presence of the coalition forces, however, Abdul-Mahdi noted that the foreign forces provide military training and advice to the Iraqi forces and that they are in Iraq at the invitation of Baghdad while there are no military bases for the foreign troops.

 

"Iraq is a democratic country with many opinions and positions on various issues of interest to the country," the statement concluded.
