    Days after Iraq requested dialogue with America before [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] implemented , the US State Department announced, on Monday, that a new strategic round would be held with Baghdad on the seventh of next April.

    This came after Iraq’s request last week for dialogue on the US withdrawal, at a time when it is suffering from the [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] and violations [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] on its territory, as the groups control border crossings parallel to the Iraqi state and smuggle money, goods, weapons and drugs through which Iran helps to violate the sanctions regime imposed on it.
    Iraq has sent an official note to the United States requesting setting a date for a new round of talks on bilateral relations, specifically the withdrawal of the remaining combat forces.
    Three government officials said that the memorandum was handed over to the US ambassador to Iraq, Matthew Toller, earlier this month, indicating that the Iraqis hope to hold the discussion next April.

    It is worth noting that this round will be the first in the era of US President Joe Biden, where US-Iraqi talks will start, to determine the shape of the future relationship between the two countries, which has been marred by several tensions in the recent period after the killing of Quds Force commander Qassem Soleimani and the deputy head of the Popular Mobilization Authority in Iraq Abu Mahdi Al-Mohandes in January 2020.

    The tour is also expected to discuss issues of security, trade, climate and so on, according to what was announced by a senior US administration official, who spoke to the "Washington Post" newspaper, on condition of anonymity, last week.
    The official added that the United States intends during the talks to clarify the issue of the remaining of the coalition forces in Iraq at the invitation of the central government in order to train and advise Iraqi forces only, and to ensure that ISIS terrorist activity does not return.

    Among the issues on the agenda, according to the US official, are the future of armed militias that operate outside the authority of the state, in addition to the severe economic crisis in Iraq.

    It is noteworthy that the Iraqi government is striving to control the uncontrolled weapon in the country, especially with the frequent targeting of militias in the Green Zone in the capital Baghdad, which includes diplomatic missions, including the US embassy.
    In the context, Iraqi and American officials said that they support a planned withdrawal of US forces from Iraq, but there are questions that remain about the timeframes and scope of the threat posed by the terrorist organization ISIS.
    According to the Pentagon, the number of US forces in Iraq has decreased to about 2,500 during the past months.
    It is noteworthy that the talks between the two countries began during the era of former President Donald Trump and stopped after the assassination of Soleimani and al-Muhandis in December 2020.
