Shafaq News/ Former Prime Minister Adel Abdul Mahdi called, on Wednesday, for activating the House of Representatives’ decision requiring the withdrawal of foreign forces from Iraq, against the backdrop of the current events in the Gaza Strip in Palestine.
Abdul Mahdi said in a statement today, “In the face of the great tragedy and initial response to the aggression against Palestine, we see at this stage two urgent demands: First, immediate implementation of the House of Representatives’ decision on 1/5/2020 (withdrawal of all American and NATO forces with all their names).
As for the second demand, Abdul Mahdi called for “preparedness at all levels and fields to face the long battle that awaits us.”
On January 5, 2020, the Iraqi Parliament voted on a resolution demanding that Baghdad work to remove foreign forces from the country.
The decision came two days after Washington assassinated the commander of the Iranian Quds Force, Qassem Soleimani, and the leader of the Iraqi Popular Mobilization Forces, Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, in an air strike near Baghdad airport.
