'America will not fulfill its promises,' Nujaba Movement spokesperson Hussein al-Musawi told Newsweek.
An Iraqi militia that has played a leading role in attacks against U.S. troops in an effort to expel them from the nation has told Newsweek that the group was skeptical of recent reports suggesting President Joe Biden's administration had reached a deal with Baghdad to withdraw forces.Reuters first reported on the purported arrangement two weeks ago. The outlet cited unnamed sources saying that the drawdown would involve hundreds of the roughly 2,500 U.S.
But militia leaders have repeatedly warned the offensive would resume in full force if ongoing U.S.-Iraq talks did not produce a timely deal for the withdrawal of U.S. forces.These warnings, including those from the Nujaba Movement, intensified in July after the U.S. conducted a preemptive airstrike against Iraq's Babil province, followed by a rocket attack that wounded seven U.S. personnel at the Ain al-Asad Airbase in the province of Anbar.
