📢 🇮🇶 🇺🇸 US presence in Iraq threatened by American air strikes, Baghdad warns

🔶️ Repeated US air strikes against Iran-linked militants in Iraq were pushing Baghdad to “terminate” the Washington-led coalition mission against Isis, Iraq’s government said.
The coalition, set up in 2014 to combat Isis militants who had swept across Iraq and Syria, was creating “instability and threatens to entangle Iraq in the cycle of conflict”, Yahya Rasool, a military spokesman for the Iraqi prime minister, said in a statement. “This trajectory compels the Iraqi government more than ever to terminate the mission of this coalition,” he added.

🔶️ The rising tensions underscore how, more than 20 years on from the US invasion of Iraq, American influence over Baghdad is waning. It is being eclipsed by Iran, which now yields unrivalled influence on the Iraqi political establishment.

🔶️ Baghdad condemned Wednesday’s strike on a residential neighbourhood in the Iraqi capital, calling it a “blatant assassination . . . showing no regard for civilian lives or international laws”.
“By this act, the American forces jeopardise civil peace, violate Iraqi sovereignty, and disregard the safety and lives of our citizens,” Rasool said.
