A senior American military official announced that America needs the help of the new Iraqi government, hinting that there is an Iraqi decision expected for the American forces to stay in Iraq to help it confront ISIS, according to the Washington Post.
“He (Al-Kazemi) has taken important steps to confront the Iran-related militias that have targeted American forces,” the newspaper quoted General Kenneth McKinsey as saying, adding that the United States must remain patient while Al-Kazemi challenges groups with massive military and political influence.
Marine Gen. Kenneth F. McKinsey Jr., who heads the US Central Command, commended Al-Kazemi for ordering a raid in late June on a crowd headquarters.
“He is now negotiating a landmine, indicating that the American forces will remain,” McKinsey said, noting that after meeting Al-Kazemi during a visit to Baghdad: “I think we need his help. And he just has to find his way somewhat, which means we will get less than ideal solutions, which are not new in Iraq. ”
Speaking to reporters over the phone after leaving Iraq, McKinsey expressed confidence that the Iraqi government will ask American forces to remain in the country despite the parliament’s decision to withdraw all foreign forces
