Trump seeks political change in Iraq, with Abadi as PM - Analyst

The US seeks a major political change in Iraq in the next election, with Haider al-Abadi as Prime Minister, political analyst Wathiq al-Hashimi said on Saturday.

In a press statement, Hashimi asserted that the Trump administration sees that Abadi achieved a major victory against ISIS terrorists and is impressed with his cooperation with the US-led Coalition.

Hashimi further said that Mullah regime seeks to preserve the status quo in Iraq since it is the biggest benefactor from the current situation in the country.

He noted that Nouri al-Maliki and Ammar al-Hakim are Mullah regime's biggest allies and contribute so much to its agenda in Iraq.
