Shafaq News/ The Coordination Framework, which brings together the Shiite political forces forming the government of Mohammed Shia al-Sudani, confirmed on Monday that it is not afraid of the new US President, Donald Trump, regarding imposing any sanctions on Iraq during the next stage.
The framework’s representative, Ali Nima, told Shafaq News Agency, “The framework has no fears of Trump, and promoting fears about imposing any sanctions on Iraq is unrealistic and far from reality.”
“Baghdad and Washington have good relations at various levels,” Nima added, adding, “We are seeking and working to strengthen this relationship during the next phase.”
He pointed out that “the United States of America is a state of institutions and has a fixed policy in dealing with countries, including Iraq, and changing the country’s president does not mean changing that policy and taking hostile decisions towards the country friendly to Washington, including Iraq.”
Nima concluded his speech by stressing that “the Coordination Framework has no fear of Trump, and does not believe that the Republican president will do anything towards Iraq. On the contrary, he will strengthen the relationship during the coming period.”
Since the announcement of the results of the US elections, and Trump’s victory in the position, Republican representatives have worked to mobilize the new administration against some Iraqi figures, accusing some of them of complete loyalty to Iran, and called on the US President to take measures against them.
Trump’s new team also includes the most ardent opponents of the Iranian axis, and is deeply resentful of the previous administration of Joe Biden and the administration of Barack Obama, considering that these two administrations handed Iraq over to Iran, after the withdrawal and after a series of negotiations.
