Iraq's Post-US Withdrawal Challenges
After the withdrawal of American forces from Iraq at the end of October 2026, Iraq faces a crucial opportunity to strengthen its sovereignty and build a unified state apparatus, or it could become a battleground for external influences and internal divisions. This withdrawal is considered a "strategic turning point," as it could help restore control over the country if the government successfully enforces its authority over weapons and achieves national consensus, especially in confronting ISIS cells. Conversely, if political and security challenges persist, Iraq may experience an escalation of internal conflicts, with regional powers such as Iran and Turkey seeking to expand their influence by exploiting the vacuum, which could threaten its stability and security.
