Iraqi-American relations since 2003 and its developments after 10 June 2014 "

Abstract

The Iraqi-American relations after 2003 are an interesting topic due to their positive and negative effects on the Iraqi situation specifically and the region generally. This research examines the nature of the relations between the two countries، with a focus on the agreement on the withdrawal of American forces from Iraq and the Strategic Framework Agreement، as they are crucial in determining the nature of the governing relations between the two countries. The research also discusses the developments in the relations between the two countries after June 10، 2014، especially following the initiation of military and security forces in Iraq، including the army، police، Popular Mobilization Forces، and other formations، in the operations to liberate Iraqi cities from the control of the terrorist organization ISIS. This stage serves as a true test of the seriousness of the United States of America in fulfilling its commitments towards Iraq، which fell short of the required level of assistance needed by Iraq.
