Iraq Commemorates Sovereignty Days as US Troops Withdraw

Iraq is commemorating four "Sovereignty Days" to mark the complete withdrawal of US troops, which has significant implications for the country's security landscape. Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi aims to reassert state authority and disarm militias by June 2027, while navigating the risks of increased Iranian influence and potential domestic tensions. The future of US-Iraqi relations is expected to shift from military cooperation to economic partnerships, although concerns remain about Iraq's security capabilities.
