Iraq: Protests in Iraq and Lebanon are Evidence proving People’s Revulsion against Iranian Presence

Iraq- Jordan 22/09/2020

Analysts pointed out that Iranian leverage in the region is scaling back in general and in Iraq specifically. National revulsion against Iranian presence is growing, which was expressed in protests spreading in Iraq and Lebanon, not to mention that those who used to embrace Iranian militias no longer tolerate such thing. Iran’s presence implies anarchy by operating affiliates that stir instability in Syria, Iraq, Lebanon, and Yemen. Iran finds it much more appealing to deal with militias than to deal with governments.
