An informed source revealed, today, Wednesday (November 13, 2024), that an American delegation arrived in Baghdad at dawn today to follow up on the efforts to calm the situation with Tehran .
The source said in an interview with "Baghdad Today", "An American delegation arrived in Baghdad at dawn today, coming from Washington, to follow up on the efforts to calm the situation with Tehran through Iraqi mediation."
He added, "The delegation may meet with Iraqi political and governmental elites at a later time, according to information, in order to assess the situation in the Middle East and what the White House's vision is after Trump's victory in the elections."
He pointed out that "the delegation is very interested in the visit of the Iraqi National Security Advisor, Qasim al-Araji, to Tehran two days ago and the important discussions that took place, which may constitute an important point in pushing Tehran to delay its response to the occupying entity in light of the efforts to push the tensions towards more containment, especially with the concern of Gulf, Arab and regional capitals about the possibility of the conflict developing into an open stage that would put everyone's interests at risk."
Regarding Al-Araji’s visit to Tehran, Professor of Political Science Khalifa Al-Tamimi presented an analysis today, Wednesday (November 13, 2024), that identifies two paths for the visit of Iraqi National Security Advisor Qasim Al-Araji to Tehran.
Al-Tamimi said in an interview with "Baghdad Today", "Al-Araji's visit to Tehran and his meeting with the most important leaders in the Iranian security and military establishment, including General Qaani, has two paths and no third. The first is to deliver important messages between Washington and Iran, considering that Baghdad plays roles in efforts to calm the situation in the Middle East, like Qatar, Oman and others."
He added, "The second path is to spare Iraq from getting involved in the tensions in the Middle East after reports that the Iranian response will come from Baghdad, in addition to confirming the government's message rejecting the use of airspace by any party, while indicating that Iraq will not accept any aggression against any of the neighboring countries from its airspace or territory."
The indirect dialogue between Tehran and Washington, which is taking place in the capital, Baghdad, was halted against the backdrop of the assassination of the head of the political bureau of Hamas, Yahya Sinwar.
An informed source revealed , on Friday (October 18, 2024), that the "indirect" dialogues between Tehran and Washington in Baghdad had been postponed after the assassination of Yahya Sinwar.
The source said in an interview with Baghdad Today, "All the expectations confirmed that indirect negotiations between Tehran and Washington through Iraqi elites would proceed according to what was planned for them, but after confirming the assassination of Sinwar in Gaza, everything changed."
He added, "It seems that the American delegation received a call from Washington, prompting it to delay any negotiations, but to remain in Baghdad for some time until the picture becomes clear."
The source pointed out that "the American delegation has not made any contacts with the Iraqi elites since the assassination of Sinwar yesterday until now, and it seems that there are changes in the manner of the upcoming negotiations and perhaps they may be delayed," stressing that "the delegation did not provide any explanations and was content to remain silent."
An informed political source reported earlier that the first round of indirect talks between Tehran and Washington was to be held in Baghdad on Thursday evening (October 17, 2024), noting that the past hours witnessed rapid movement to hold the first round of indirect talks between Tehran and Washington through the mediation of high-level Iraqi elites, in an attempt to find hotlines between the two sides via Baghdad, to ensure the transmission of messages and avoid further tension in the Middle East, especially with Israeli threats to target Iranian depth.
He explained that the American side is ready to hold this round, but is waiting for the green light from the Iranian side, noting that both parties are aware of the sensitivity of the situation, and that holding these talks, even indirectly, may lead to mutual steps to ease tensions and try to prevent things from slipping into a comprehensive war.
An informed source revealed, on Wednesday (October 16, 2024), that the White House has adopted a hotline with its embassy in Baghdad in preparation for indirect negotiations with Tehran.
The source told Baghdad Today, "Washington is serious about conducting undeclared negotiations with Tehran in Baghdad, and there is a hotline with the White House to provide the latest updates," expecting that "the movement in this direction will start within 48 hours in light of the presence of an American delegation in the capital."
He added, "The US embassy is in constant movement and its diplomatic delegations are holding meetings with Iraqi elites on an ongoing basis, some of which are not announced, in the context of pushing the movement towards negotiations, even if they are indirect, but the most important thing is to listen to the opinion of the other party and try to send more messages."
He pointed out that "Iran has shown particular flexibility over the past 24 hours, but it is cautious, especially since Tehran believes that Washington is an unserious negotiator and does not trust its commitments."
The source concluded, "The efforts of the Iraqi parties are continuing to create an initial atmosphere to start indirect negotiations."
