WHAT HAPPENED

On 21 September, press reporting described Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi’s phased plan as an initial 90-day period without faction attacks or U.S. strikes, followed by weapons handovers ending on 30 June 2027. Early on 22 September, U.S. Republican Party member Nicola Shahoud told Al-Ahad TV (AAH — official) that Washington and al-Zaidi had agreed to stop military operations against factions, prevent attacks on them, address weapons by 30 June 2027 and retain U.S. security advisers and arms support; security expert Safaa al-Aasem said the visit supported completion of the U.S. withdrawal on 30 September while Iraq sought air-defence capabilities from France, Germany and South Korea.

    “The process would begin with a 90-day period during which the militias would halt attacks and receive assurances that they would not be targeted by U.S. forces. The groups would then begin handing over their weapons, with the disarmament process scheduled to conclude by June 30, 2027.”

    “Al-Zaidi’s visit is a good step toward completing the American withdrawal on 30 September; moves are under way toward France, Germany and South Korea to strengthen Iraqi air defences.”

    “Several points were agreed, including stopping military operations against the factions and preventing attacks on them; a date of 30 June next year was agreed to address the weapons issue; the United States will retain security advisers for the Iraqi Ministry of Defence with arms support.”

    تم الاتفاق على عدة نقاط ومنها وقف العمليات العسكرية ضد الفصائل ومنع مهاجمتها؛ تم الاتفاق على موعد معالجة موضوع السلاح في الـ30 حزيران العام القادم؛ الولايات المتحدة ستبقي على مستشارين أمنيين لوزارة الدفاع العراقية مع دعم بالاسلحة

WHY IT MATTERS

The two Al-Ahad TV (AAH — official) guests distinguish the end of the coalition mission from the continued presence of U.S. advisers, while Shahoud presents the weapons timetable as an agreement rather than only al-Zaidi’s plan.
