According to Biden’s letter to Congress, “to address the unusual and extreme threats to US national security and foreign policy posed by obstacles to the orderly reconstruction of Iraq, the restoration and maintenance of peace and security in the country, and the development of political administration and economic institutions,” the US president has extended the 2003 national emergency in Iraq for another year.
Resolution 13303 was issued by former US president George W. Bush after the Iraq war on May 22, 2003, to protect the Iraqi Development Fund for the reconstruction of Iraq, as well as to protect Iraqi oil products, US interests, and to lift sanctions on Iraq.
“It will allow the US president to take more steps in Iraq, including the use of emergency forces, the deployment of more troops, the imposition of economic sanctions, the suspension of certain laws and measures, or any other step to protect US national security and foreign policy in Iraq.”
The US president must notify Congress of the extension in a special letter 90 days before the expiration date.
In recent years, Iranian-backed Iraqi militia groups have called for US withdrawal from the country.
For future US and international coalition forces in Iraq, the US and Iraq have established a joint Higher Military Commission, which is a military-to-military dialogue between Iraqi and U.S. defense leaders and professionals.
Since its launch in January 2024, the three subcommittees established by the Higher Military Commission have conducted meetings in Baghdad supported by coalition members to discuss the threat of IS, the operational environment, and the capabilities of the Iraqi Security Forces. Link
