Clare: Washington accuses Iran of "exploiting factions to steal Iraq's resources" and rejects its role in stabilizing the country.
10/30/2026
The U.S. State Department affirmed on Friday that Washington’s strategy towards Iraq is based on supporting its sovereignty and enhancing its security and economic stability, while stressing that Iran cannot play any role in achieving these goals, accusing Tehran of exploiting armed factions to seize the resources of the Iraqi people.
The American position came in response to a question posed by Shafaq News Agency to the US State Department regarding how to balance supporting Iraq’s security independence and economic stability on the one hand, and talking about Iranian influence and imposing border-related sanctions on the other.
A spokesperson for the US State Department told Shafaq News Agency that "the United States' efforts to achieve stability in the region focus on ensuring that countries retain their sovereignty and their ability to achieve security through mutual economic prosperity."
He added, "Our goal has not changed, and it is for an Iraq that enjoys sovereignty, security and prosperity, and is able to achieve the best for its people and contribute positively to the stability of the entire region."
In a stance regarding Iranian influence in Iraq, the spokesman accused Tehran of using armed factions to achieve its interests at the expense of Iraqis, saying that "Iran is an untrustworthy party and has a long history of using Iraqi militias to steal the resources of the Iraqi people."
The US State Department spokesman stressed that "Iran has no role to play in supporting Iraq's sovereignty and economic stability."
According to government officials, the United States is pressuring Iraq to restrict economic dealings with Iran and tighten control over border crossings, as part of the sanctions imposed by Washington on Tehran.
The closure of the Al-Shaib border crossing with Iran in Maysan province sparked local protests and demands for its reopening, amid warnings of the repercussions of the decision on trade. While Iraqi authorities attributed the closure to technical and security reasons, Tehran linked it to American pressure.
Iraqi Prime Minister Ali Faleh al-Zaidi had confirmed that a complete closure of the border with Iran does not serve the interests of either country, given the ongoing dispute over border procedures and trade relations between Baghdad and Tehran.

Jeff They are rewriting the budget and recalculating its figures based on the new currency value right now. They're making it and concealing it by telling you they're doing it for Kurdistan
Ariel Banks that Know about the RV Exist...are already moving. Compliance teams are building RV-ready desks. Private wealth offices are tripling staff...Some branches have internally flagged IQD holders and said come back post-reval. That’s not rumor that’s positioning. The institutions are pre-building for a wave of new high-net-worth clients who aren’t on the books yet...
Stephen What the CBI governor says [today] and what they have said in the past are completely contradictory to each other. You have August 26, 2026 the CBI explicitly denies that the zero deleted notes were printed. Then September 9, 2026 you have reports of a completely new currency series...When officials say no currency is being printed are they referring to zero deleted banknotes or entirely new currency series?
Mnt Goat It is a FACT that the dinar will move back to the currency exchanges (FOREX) and we can see the pressure building in the news...So when will the dam finally break? It used to be that we might get an update on the project to remove the zeros once a month, if we were lucky. We have now had dozens of articles on this subject matter just since August. Why is that? ... something is brewing and it was leaked out. They can’t put spilt milk back in the bottle, but they are desperately trying ...they are worried about over speculators who want to make billions off of any revaluation when they have insider information. This is why the CBI is being so careful...
