Sudani on the cover of Newsweek: The man who brought Iraq back into the spotlight
The renowned American magazine Newsweek published an exceptional cover in its issue released this week featuring Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani, asserting in a headline that “It’s time to shine — the Iraqi Prime Minister has brought Iraq back into the spotlight.”
The selection of Al-Sudani for the cover came after a series of remarkable developments in Iraq recently, most notably the great success in organizing the parliamentary e*******s, which the magazine described as “among the most smooth and transparent in recent years,” considering that this achievement restored international confidence in Baghdad’s ability to manage its d********c entitlements with high efficiency.
In an extensive report within the issue, Newsweek noted that the political and security developments that accompanied the e*******l process coincided with vigorous government efforts to rebuild state institutions and support the national economy, which enabled Iraq to move steadily towards restoring its regional and international role.
The report also addressed Al-Sudani’s vision for promoting stability, improving services, and expanding Iraq’s relations with various countries, considering that this approach “brought Iraq back to the map of global attention after many years of challenges.” (LINK)
The US agrees to sell an advanced communications system to Iraq.
The US Department of Defense (Pentagon) said that the US State Department has approved a possible sale of a communications repeater system, which is used to enhance communications, nationwide to Iraq for $100 million.
The Pentagon added that the prime contractor for the sale would be L3 Harris Corporation.
A Telecommunication Repeater System is a vital system in telecommunications networks. Its primary function is to receive weak or distorted wireless or wired signals, amplify or renew them, and then retransmit them to increase coverage range and maintain signal quality over long distances. (LINK)
