"The Trump administration seeks to recalibrate US influence in the Middle East and wants to make Iraq great again'. United States President Donald Trump's second administration has introduced a bold and unconventional strategy for the Middle East. The administration intends to recalibrate US influence in a region historically scarred by conflict, prioritising regional stability through economic strength and military consolidation by asserting a stronger, business-minded US presence."
"Trump's primary plans and wishes for Iraq involve a twofold mission: consolidating all armed forces under the command of the legitimate state and drastically reducing the influence of malign foreign players, most notably Iran. The administration seeks to open Iraqi markets to international investment, upgrade the country's infrastructure, and secure the independence of its energy sector. Hence, the plan is to ground a genuine partnership that respects Iraq's unity while ensuring that it is no longer a central node for militia activity or external interference."
