Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia' Al-Sudani has arrived in London on an official visit, during which he will meet His Majesty King Charles III, Prime Minister Keir Starmer, senior officials in the British government and business leaders.
Writing in The Telegraph, Prime Minister Al-Sudani emphasised the opportunities for cooperation between the two countries:
"During this visit, several major projects dedicated to British companies, worth billions of dollars, will be announced.
"We aspire to see Britain as a strategic partner in our ambitious projects, foremost among them the "Development Road" initiative, which aims to position Iraq as a global trade hub connecting East and West."
He concluded:
"Today's Iraq, with its human resources, natural wealth and strategic location, aspires to be a haven for investment and a destination for global businesses.
"We can think of no better friends and partners than those in the United Kingdom to continue this journey and fulfil our shared aspirations for a future of greater prosperity and stability."
