US commits to disarmament for Al-Zaydi support
Reports indicate that the Iraqi government, led by Ali Fahad Al-Zaidy, has received an implicit approval from the United States to complete its government formation. This includes the participation of figures connected to armed factions in exchange for a commitment to restrict weapons and prevent targeting American interests in Iraq. The understanding was reached during Al-Zaidy’s visit to Washington last September, where he met with President Trump, as U.S. opposition to the involvement of groups close to Iran has diminished. Some of these factions intend to hand over their weapons and have agreed to a disarmament plan. Additionally, armed groups such as the "Sadr Corps" have entered the government, and the Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities was assigned to them, despite their links to attacks on American interests. This occurred amidst U.S. pressure to keep armed factions away from state institutions. The government continues to complete its formation despite parliamentary objections to the structural expansion, and official assurances remain undisclosed for now.
