Summary

The United States has withdrawn its military forces from Iraq, ending a presence that began with the 2003 invasion. The withdrawal was negotiated under the Biden administration in 2024 and completed by the Trump administration by September 30, 2026. Iraqi security forces are stated to be capable of leading the fight against remaining ISIS remnants. The withdrawal is expected to be welcomed by Iran and Iran-aligned groups in Iraq. In Baghdad and other Iraqi cities, security officers and troops celebrated the pullout with parades and public demonstrations. Iraq plans to mark the occasion with public holidays called 'Independence Day.' The transition is expected to shift to a bilateral advisory, training, and intelligence-sharing relationship between Washington and Baghdad, with a planned process to integrate Iran-backed militias into the state security apparatus postponed until June 2027. Some Iraqi analysts express concern that the withdrawal could create a security vacuum and allow ISIS to regroup.
