Q&A: Iraq's Prime Minister Is Visiting the White House. What's at Stake?
Iraqi prime minister Mohammad Shia al-Sudani will make his first official state visit to Washington, D.C. on April 15.
The visit, long in the making, comes at a moment when the two countries are renegotiating their relationship.
Iraqi factions have attacked U.S. bases on a regular basis, and the fragile ceasefire that holds could be broken at any moment.
Sudani and President Joe Biden will discuss the U.S. troop presence in Iraq, as well as other contentious topics, such as the flow of U.S. dollars to Iraq.
Century International fellow Sajad Jiyad explains what's at stake in this visit.
