@MAKadhimi
I spoke to @POTUS today. We reaffirmed our commitment to bolstering Iraqi-US ties for the benefit of our peoples and cooperation in fighting Daesh to ensure regional peace and stability. Strategic Dialogue continues to serve as a roadmap for the future.
The call comes eight days after a rocket attack in Erbil in northern Iraq that led to the killing of a military contractor and the injury of several US service members. The Biden administration said it is assisting Iraq in the investigation and that it will make a response at the appropriate time.
