The high Iraqi delegation in Washington.. Cooperation and meetings may pave the way for Al-Sudani’s visit

Free / Private – WashingtonAugust 09, 2023

The visit of Iraqi Defense Minister Thabet al-Abbasi, accompanied by senior military leaders, to Washington is the highest visit by Iraqi officials to the United States since the formation of the government of Prime Minister Muhammad Shia al-Sudani in October last year, a step that could pave the way for further development in relations between the two countries, according to observers. .

Al-Abbasi arrived in Washington last Monday, at the head of a high-ranking delegation that included the Commander of the Counter-Terrorism Service, Lieutenant General Abd al-Wahhab al-Saadi, Chief of Staff of the Army, Lieutenant General, Special Forces Abd al-Amir Rashid Yarallah, Deputy Commander of Joint Operations Lieutenant General Qais al-Muhammadawi, and other senior officials.

Al-Abbasi and his accompanying delegation met with many US military officials, led by Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and his assistant Celeste Wonder, and US representatives from the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the Defense Security Cooperation Agency, the US Central Command, the State Department and the National Security Council.

In a joint statement issued on Tuesday, the two sides affirmed their joint commitment to continue bilateral military cooperation in all fields, especially the fight against ISIS, work to prevent the return of its activity, and training of Iraqi military forces.

The two sides also stressed their commitment to developing Iraq’s security and defense capabilities, and they consulted on opportunities to expand Iraqi participation in the military maneuvers led by the US Central Command.

The statement renewed Washington’s support for Iraq’s sovereignty and security, and confirmed that the US forces are in Iraq at the invitation of the Iraqi government only to support the Iraqi security forces in their war against ISIS.

The Government of Iraq reaffirmed its commitment to protecting the personnel and advisors of the United States and the international coalition, convoys and diplomatic facilities, according to the joint statement.

Commenting on the visit, writer and political analyst Aqil Abbas indicates that it falls within the framework of preparation for the next session related to the strategic framework agreement, whose “date may be announced soon.”

Abbas, who resides in the United States, adds that “the only two aspects that work well in the strategic framework agreement are the security and energy file and the American companies operating in Iraq.”

Abbas asserts that “usually there are initial meetings related to the strategic framework agreement, prior to reaching a summit meeting between the two parties,” and it is likely that “this meeting will include US President Joe Biden and Iraqi Prime Minister Muhammad Shia’a al-Sudani.”

According to a report published by the ” Voice of America ” ​​website, Washington and Baghdad hope to take decisive steps to expand their partnership from one focused almost entirely on confronting the Islamic State (ISIS) to one that some US officials describe as a full-fledged government alliance.

After meeting Abbasi last Monday, Austin said the United States “realizes that its military mission will change in Iraq as local forces build their capabilities,” describing the talks as part of “the next step in our strategic defense partnership.”  

On the other hand, Al-Abbasi stated that it is important to “preserve the victories” that the Iraqi and American forces have already achieved, “and also to strengthen relations and cooperation with the United States.

The United States has about 2,500 soldiers in Iraq tasked with advising and assisting the Iraqi security forces as they pursue the remnants of ISIS.

Before Monday’s meeting between Austin and Abbasi, US Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for the Middle East Dana Stroul stated that her country is interested in establishing a permanent defense relationship with Iraq within a strategic partnership for many years to come.

State Department officials say this includes focusing more on the Iraqi economy, noting that some US companies such as “Cinnabon” and “Burger King” have already opened stores in Baghdad.

And the “Voice of America” ​​website quotes a State Department official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, saying, “This is a very strong symbol and a sign that the Iraqis want American products and want American business, even if it is in the form of concessions.”

“We would like to continue to expand our involvement in the field of energy, particularly in helping Iraqis build greater self-sufficiency in their energy sector,” the official added, stressing the focus on finding ways to “preserve the employment of Iraqi youth.”

US officials say they are also encouraged by Iraqi progress in fighting corruption, pointing to improvements in the banking sector in particular, although Washington’s decision to blacklist 14 Iraqi banks for allegedly laundering money on behalf of Iran sparked protests last month.

US officials are also aware that there is competition from other countries that want to increase security cooperation with Iraq, such as China, Russia and Turkey.

“This is why this dialogue is so important,” Stroul said. “We have to work with the Iraqis on a comprehensive picture to take advantage of those defense and security resources.”

Abbas stresses that the arrival of a delegation that includes the Minister of Defense, the Commander of the Anti-Terrorism Force and the Chief of Staff is “evidence of the US’s satisfaction with the file of relations with Baghdad and that cooperation between the two parties is progressing well.”

Abbas pointed out that the talk about the existence of “political objections to Sudani’s visit to Washington is incorrect.”

He added, “Iraq tried more than once to ensure the realization of this visit, but the American side told them clearly that the issue is only related to the president’s schedule, which is currently preoccupied with Ukraine and other files.”

And he believes that “the American assessment of the Sudanese government tends in general to be positive, as they see that he has committed to his pledge not to target American forces in Iraq, which no previous Iraqi government could abide by.”

He believes that “this matter is essential for the Americans, who believe that Al-Sudani is making an effort to reform many files, especially with regard to financial issues and energy dependence on Iran.”

To avoid drought”… A call for six proposals during Erdogan’s visit to Iraq

Baghdad today – Baghdad

Today, Wednesday (August 9, 2023), the expert in water affairs, Adel Al-Mukhtar, put forward six proposals during the upcoming visit of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan to Iraq.

Al-Mukhtar told “Baghdad Today” that Erdogan’s visit “to Iraq soon must be invested in the file of enhancing the country’s water revenues, especially with its decline at large rates to a very dangerous degree that threatens a drought that will devour most of the country’s provinces.”

Al-Mukhtar suggested “raising 6 important points to the Turkish president, the most prominent of which is the signing of a comprehensive agreement to resolve the problem by defining a digital share for Iraq in the waters of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, or by updating the 1946 agreement, during which Iraq was more advanced in modern irrigation systems, with an emphasis on the digital share.”

He added, “The third proposal is to resort to arbitration by a third international party in order to ensure a fair share for Iraq, or to work with the two international agreements of 1992-1997, which include water shares for countries in common rivers that were put forward at the Basra conference months ago.”

Al-Mukhtar referred to “another proposal, to activate the memorandum of understanding that was signed between Baghdad and Ankara in 2014, which included two important items. The first is defining a sufficient water share for Iraq with sharing the damage, in addition to another proposal, which is Turkey’s commitment to a level of not less than 300 cubic meters of water from the Tigris and Euphrates and to be committed to it.” Because the current releases amount to 250 cubic meters in the Tigris River and 150 cubic meters in the Euphrates River.

And he continued, “Iraq should refuse to build the Al-Jazra Dam, which we consider fatal because it is an irrigation dam that will transfer the waters of the Tigris to depth for the purpose of agriculture,” stressing “the need for the Ministry of Water Resources and the relevant authorities to open up to experts and listen to their concerns regarding the water file.”

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is scheduled to visit Iraq at the end of this month or early September, “as far as possible,” according to an official source in the Iraqi prime minister’s office.

The source stated that “during which many outstanding issues related to security, water, economy, investment, border control, and other common files in the region will be resolved.”

He added, “The water file is a pressure card on Iraq, and Turkey is supposed to be flexible, and the problem does not bind us with it until now except for protocols. Therefore, Iraq aspires to a comprehensive agreement to solve the water problem radically, and this is what will be presented during Erdogan’s visit, and we hope that during the upcoming visit he will sign such an agreement.”
With regard to Iraq’s role in the regional axis, Jiyad explained, “Through the ministerial platform, Iraq will not be a corridor for aggression against any of the neighboring countries, and it will not be an ally of one party over the other. Iraq will also be a bridge to regional countries, and this is what happened between Iran and Saudi Arabia, Iran and Egypt, and the return of Syria.” To the Arab League and the rest of the Arab countries.
He continued, “Al-Sudani knows, through his experience, where the weaknesses are, and he is working very quietly, even in resolving the political crisis, and is still in control.

There is an Iraqi-Jordanian-Egyptian axis that has been agreed upon, and there is an Iraqi-Gulf axis, as well as Saudi Arabia’s desire to invest in the Iraqi Development Fund.” “.

Khaled Shamal, a spokesman for the Ministry of Water Resources, said that there will be a platform regarding the upcoming visit of the Turkish president to Iraq and protocols that will be observed and many files will be discussed, adding that he cited a statement by the Prime Minister, Muhammad Shiaa al-Sudani, who mentioned it in more than one forum, which is that the water resources sector is a top priority. work of this ministry.
The water file has become a major challenge in Iraq, a semi-desert country with a population of more than 42 million people, and Baghdad has repeatedly held its neighbors Turkey and Iran responsible for reducing water levels due to building dams on the Tigris and Euphrates rivers.
In light of this, the Ministries of Agriculture and Water Resources in Iraq decided to reduce the area designated for agriculture, due to the lack of water revenues coming from Turkey and Iran, amid warnings that water scarcity threatens the collapse of Iraqi food security.

‏“This meeting looks beyond the defeat of ISIS and is the result of Austin’s visit to Baghdad in March and Dana Stroll, Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Middle East Affairs, said during an interview last week: “We are interested in a lasting defense relationship within a strategic partnership.”
‏Many officials said the agreement would pave the way for a “360-degree relationship” meaning it would be a strategic partnership between the entire government for years to come.
‏The Joint Security Cooperation Dialogue discusses ways to normalize bilateral relations between the armies of the United States and Iraq. This includes training and exchange programs for officers and non-commissioned officers.
“Military relations between the two countries are good and working well,” the statement noted.
U.S. Ambassador Alina Romanowski to Iraq said leaders in both countries would like to see the relationship expand in other areas including in the economic aspect, climate change cooperation, diplomatic cooperation and more.
As for the Iraqi ambassador in Washington, he said that Prime Minister Mohammed Al-Sudani “was very open to that and was very interested in working in areas that are in line with his vision and goals to achieve stability, sovereignty and security for Iraq, and this meeting is an opportunity in some ways to continue to support Iraq’s reintegration and involvement in the region.”
.Wilft U.S. military commanders indicate that Iraqi forces are making progress, and ISIS-led attacks have fallen to 64% due to the leading role of Iraqi forces.”
