The US envoy to Iraq, Tom Barrack, affirmed on Tuesday Washington’s commitment to deepening its partnership with Baghdad in the areas of justice, energy and investment to enhance security and stability in the region.
This came during his meeting in the British capital, London, with a group of Iraqi officials headed by the President of the Supreme Judicial Council, Faiq Zaidan, according to what Barak published on the “X” platform.
The US envoy added in his post that during the meeting with those officials, there was “an important exchange about the future of US-Iraqi relations. At a historic moment for our two peoples and the region,” indicating that “we have an opportunity to build on the foundations of a long-standing partnership and chart an ambitious course forward from judicial cooperation and strengthening the rule of law to energy and investment, economic development, institutional partnerships, security, and regional stability. The potential is enormous.”
“Strong and independent judicial institutions and deeper cooperation between our legal systems are essential to building trust, strengthening the rule of law, and securing a more prosperous future,” he said, adding that “together, we can help unlock Iraq’s extraordinary potential, deepen the ties between our two peoples, and build a future of shared prosperity, opportunity, and lasting peace for generations to come.” He stressed that “the United States looks forward to continuing this important work alongside our Iraqi partners.”
