    Washington threatened Baghdad with harsh measures before extending its exemption from sanctions on Iran: ending the work of the Ministry of Abdul-Mahdi and waving its declaration of a rogue government
    Baghdad - Abdul-Latif al-Musawi

    Sources said that the US extension of one month to the exemption granted to Iraq from the sanctions related to dealing with Iran, which Iraq relies on importing energy, came with an American message stipulating the end of the work of his resigned government, Adel Abdul-Mahdi, and vice versa that Iraq is subject to US sanctions and strict measures. The sources told (Al-Zaman) yesterday that (the American message boils down to changing the government of the voluntary absentee, and conversely, Washington will head towards the inclusion of Iraq in the US sanctions), explaining that the American measures are (transferring the file of killing and suppressing the demonstrators to the International Criminal Court. Armed leaders and factions) adding that the other measures are to stop military support. Freezing Iraqi money in American banks and issuing a resolution from the UN Security Council considering the government as rogue). The United States last extended 30 days for the exclusion period.
     The United States had decided last February to allow Iraq to continue importing gas and electricity from Iran, but the period of exemption has decreased from ninety and 120 days, to 45 days, and now to only thirty days until the end of April. "This extension will be the last granted to Iraq," said an official in the office of the President of the Republic, Barham Salih.
     For its part, the US State Department confirmed the extension of the exemption from sanctions and made it clear that it came to "meet the immediate energy needs of Iraq", but did not specify the deadline.
    In turn, the US Treasury Department simultaneously announced the imposition of sanctions on Iranian economic interests in Iraq, including a committee to restore and expand Shi'a holy shrines. In a statement, Treasury Secretary Stephen Mnuchin accused Iran of "giving priority to its terrorist agents at the expense of the basic needs of its people." Washington grants exceptions to Baghdad provided that Iraq takes measures to reduce its dependence on Iran, by rehabilitating electrical installations or by finding other suppliers. (Since November, Baghdad has not met any condition, and as a result the exception should have been canceled, but Granting an American deadline comes due to the current circumstances), referring to Adnan al-Zrafi's mandate to form a new government, which Washington does not want to embarrass by not extending, according to another Iraqi official, who made it clear that (the United States does not want to put al-Zorfi in a difficult position by not renewing the exemption).
    In the event that the exception was not extended, Iraq would have had to stop importing gas and electricity from Tehran, or continue to deal with Tehran and face the possibility of US sanctions. The United States is also upset about the Iraqi slowdown in signing contracts with major American companies specialized in the energy sector, with the aim of accelerating the disengagement from Iran in this field. Iraq faces real challenges at various levels and on the economic side, which is threatened by an economic crisis due to low oil prices, which could lead to a loss of 65 percent of its oil revenues.
