Impact of US pullout on Iraqi markets

The article discusses the impact of the American withdrawal from Iraq on the security and economic situation, as the international forces' mission approaches its end on September 30, 2026. It notes that this withdrawal has caused a state of concern in Iraqi markets, especially in the Karrada area of Baghdad, where consumers have canceled their purchases out of fear of future security and political repercussions, leading to a nearly complete slowdown in market activity except for essential goods. The article also links Iraq's economic security to financial stability, indicating that completing the withdrawal will not end Iraq's financial dependence on the United States for years to come, due to the continued safeguarding of Iraqi funds under American laws and the existence of sanctions related to the funding of armed groups connected to Iran. Experts also emphasize that effectively managing the post-withdrawal security phase—such as restricting weapons to the state—can promote stability and attract investments, whereas the lack of full economic sovereignty in the immediate future diminishes the direct impact of this withdrawal on the economy.
