In his speech in the Al-Rafidain Forum on Monday, attended by INA, the speaker of the Iraqi Parliament, Muhammad Al-Halbousi, confirmed that the parliament has received a request for the re-organization of US forces presence in Iraq.

The request will be discussed during the next legislative season, Halbousi said, stressing the importance of Iraq having strong relations with neighboring and regional countries.

‘The parliament,’ Halbousi added, ‘managed to overcome many challenges and obstacles during its first legislative season, keen all the time on the need to pass laws that impact the quality of citizens lives.’

‘Iraq has just emerged from a battle that cost him dearly in terms of life and infrastructure.’ Halbousi went on, adding that he believed that the 2019 budget is one of the best that can be achieved and will give a boost to the economic machine.
