Iraq Faces Faction and US Influence on Iran Flight Ban
The article addresses the crisis of the Iranian flight ban from Iraq, which shifted from a precautionary measure to comply with American sanctions into a political confrontation between the Iraqi government and factions loyal to Tehran. These factions have threatened to stage sit-ins inside airports and shut them down as a means of pressuring the government. The Iraqi government, led by Ali Al-Zouaydi, is seeking to negotiate with Washington to obtain an exception allowing the resumption of some humanitarian and religious flights, in order to avoid sanctions and safeguard the country's interests. Concerns are growing that the escalation could escalate into an security crisis, as security agencies have taken measures to protect sovereign facilities. Meanwhile, experts warn that turning airports into a battleground could threaten Iraq’s security and stability and hinder its national interests.
