    Al-Amiri: Full sovereignty over Iraqi airspace must be achieved.

On Tuesday, the head of the Al-Fatah Alliance, Hadi Al-Amiri, set several demands regarding the withdrawal of foreign military forces from Iraq, three days before the deadline for withdrawal.

In a statement, Al-Amiri stressed the "necessity of the withdrawal of foreign combat forces (of all types) from Iraq by December 31, 2021," noting that "any combat presence under any name and any pretext will not be accepted."

He added that all "bases or wings of Iraqi bases" occupied by foreign forces after December 31, 2021, must be handed over to the Iraqi army or security services, especially the Harir and Ain Al-Assad bases.

Al-Amiri stressed that any need for the presence of "advisers, trainers or technicians must be accurately assessed by the senior military leaders, with a clear statement of the reasons." He noted that this presence must be regulated with a "written agreement between the Iraqi and US governments and in accordance with the Iraqi laws in force."

Al-Amiri also made it clear that the entry and exit of all advisors, technicians, and trainers should take place "in accordance with the laws that guarantee respect for the sovereignty of the country," calling also to "achieve full sovereignty over Iraqi airspace."
