Loss of confidence in Saint Mary's leadership | SaltWireWASHINGTON - The security and defense relationship between the U.S. and Iraq will be an important part of talks when Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani visits Washington next week but is not the primary focus of the visit, a senior State Department official said on Thursday.
The senior State Department official said the defense and security relationship will be part of the discussions during Sudani's visit, when he will meet both with President Joe Biden and Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin as well as Secretary of State Antony Blinken. The visit's focus will instead be the economy and issues including education, environment and U.S. support for development, the official said, without providing details.
The U.S. invaded Iraq in 2003 to topple Saddam Hussein and withdrew in 2011, only for troops to return in 2014 to help fight Islamic State after the extremist Sunni Muslim militant group overran large parts of the country.
