WASHINGTON – US President Donald Trump threatened on Tuesday that the United States would “no longer help Iraq” if returns to power.
Due to al-Maliki’s policies and ideologies, “if elected, the United States of America will no longer help Iraq,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform.
Al-Maliki, who served as prime minister from 2006 to 2014, was nominated on Saturday by Iraq’s main Shiite bloc in parliament to form a government.
Trump’s latest remarks signal a new intervention in another country’s politics, said a New York Times report.
