ERBIL, Kurdistan Region — A bipartisan delegation of US senators this week reaffirmed Washington's support to high-level Iraqi and Kurdish politicians in visits to Baghdad, Erbil, and with US troops. 

"The Senators visited American troops deployed across Iraq, including many Illinois natives, and they met with Kurdish leaders to reiterate the importance of our nation’s alliance with our Kurdish partners who fought alongside American forces against ISIS," read a statement from Senator Tammy Duckworth's office released on Friday. 

The trip was not publicly announced until after its completion for security reasons, AFP reported.

Duckworth, a US Army veteran, lost her legs while flying a Blackhawk helicopter in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom.

"Fifteen years ago, I deployed to Iraq as an American Soldier to fly helicopter missions. This week, I returned in a role I never expected:  as a United States Senator leading a bipartisan delegation to show our support for the people of Iraq and express our hope that Iraq will be an independent, strong country and a close ally of the United States for many years to come," she stated.

Another in the delegation has been an outspoken lawmaker for the continued support of Kurdish fighters against the Islamic State (ISIS) in Iraq and Syria.  

"After President Trump announced plans to withdraw our military from Syria earlier this year, Duckworth wrote to the President along with Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) to urge him to protect our Kurdish partners in the region, not abandon them..." she stated.

She was joined by Senators Johnny Isakson and Angus King.

“Iraq is a long-term strategic partner and we care about its security, independence and sovereignty. Democracy and freedom are still new to Iraq, and I am proud to support the enduring partnership between Iraq and the United States as we seek to strengthen these values," Isakson stated.

King underscored that Washington must not simply leave because ISIS has been declared militarily defeated in Iraq and Syria.

"Among the most important takeaways from this trip is the knowledge of the continuing danger that ISIS can pose if left unchecked, and the importance of our continued operation to ensure they do not gain a new foothold,” he stated.

In Baghdad, the US delegation met with Iraqi President Barham Salih.

"[W]e are going to build a strong independent Iraq, we have detailed plans and programs to strengthen the economic situation, attracting investment, building laboratories," the PM said.

Duckworth flew over the spot where her helicopter was downed in 2004 and also met with Kurdistan Region Government (KRG) Prime Minister Nechirvan Barzani in Erbil.

The PM welcomed investment opportunities as the Kurdistan Region emerges from several economic crises.

"Prime Minister Barzani gave a brief overview of economic and financial constraints faced in recent years and highlighted indications of the Region’s recovery and the welcoming investment opportunities," read a statement from the PM's office.

Barzani stressed that the Kurdistan Region together with Baghdad and the international coalition will continue to "confront any threat of terrorism."

"Regarding reform programmes initiated in various sectors, he said the KRG would benefit from the experience of friendly countries," added Barzani amid reforms in government and the armed forces supported by the United States. 

They also discussed the Kurdistan Region continuing to host 1.2 million IDPs and Syrian refugees, as many are unable to return due to political tensions, a lack of infrastructure, and security concerns.

Baghdad - Mawazin News 
Iraqi resistance prepared, three possible scenarios in any escalation with Washington in Iraq. 
The Lebanese newspaper " The News", " The Americans are legitimate and ready targets caught. Affirming its readiness to enter into a confrontation at the right moment, it is the multiplicity of three possible scenarios in any escalation, as follows: 
- missile strike on US rallies (embassy or bases or camps ), And the Americans have already experienced this during the government of Haider Abadi, specifically by the Hezbollah Brigades 
- ambushes against US convoys in various Iraqi provinces, especially in unexpected areas, the northern and western provinces.
- The kidnapping of American citizens, as the confrontation developed, and achieved a great deal of escalation, especially as the southern regions (Basra province, for example) are full of US citizens asking questions about the nature of their missions, most of them are there as "oil experts." 
For its part, other sources within the resistance factions are reluctant to list escalation scenarios, but they do not rule out reliance on them in the near future. Senator Marco Rubio, a member of the US Senate Armed Services Committee, agrees to limit the confrontation to "gangs" and "battalions", asserting that other factions, large and small, are ready to enter into confrontation, calling it "confusing to the Americans" , And push him to caution and fear, and go to the threat. According to the newspaper.
In the same direction, Jawad al-Talibawi, the military spokesman for al-Udayib, said that "the balance of terror that the factions have achieved with the American forces led their administration to beg, and requested protection from the Iraqi government for the American presence in Iraq."
