US Forces Complete Exit From Iraq After Two Decades
Original: US Forces Exit Iraq
American forces have completed their withdrawal from Iraq, ending a military presence of more than two decades that began with the 2003 invasion. Reuters reports the departure leaves a regional power vacuum, with analysts pointing to a potential opening for Iran to expand its influence over Baghdad. The drawdown closes a chapter marked by insurgency, the fight against Islamic State, and ongoing political turbulence in Iraq.
Why now: The end of a two-decade US military presence reshapes Middle East security dynamics and raises concerns about Iranian influence.
