Hormuz Crisis Affects Al-Zaidi Talks

During his visit to Berlin, Iraqi Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi emphasized the importance of developing economic relations with Germany, especially in light of the impact of the Iran-U.S. crisis on the oil market, which has significantly affected Iraq's oil sales. He pointed out Iraq's efforts to expand its sources of oil export, including the Jihan pipeline expansion project through Turkey and outlets via Syria, with the goal of increasing production to around 10 million barrels per day, a large portion of which would be exported to Europe. The two sides also discussed the political and economic repercussions of the regional crisis. The German chancellor called on Iran to halt escalation and close the Strait of Hormuz. There was also a focus on the necessity of disarming Iraqi militias and supporting security and military cooperation between Iraq and Germany.
