American troops began to leave Iraq en masse - Russia could replace the United States

American troops began to leave Iraqi territory.

The Iraqi authorities report that a massive withdrawal of coalition forces has begun in the country. According to the information provided, a few hours ago at least 6 large convoys left the largest bases in Iraq and moved to neighboring Kuwait. According to experts, by the end of this year, 95% of American servicemen may leave Iraqi territory. Experts do not exclude that the place of the American military may well be taken by ... Russia.

As follows from the data presented, dozens of units of American military, special and construction equipment have left American military facilities in Iraq. Information about the beginning of the withdrawal of American troops from this Middle Eastern country appeared quite unexpectedly, although it became known earlier that Washington had made a similar decision, but no timeframes were announced.

Experts note that against the background of the withdrawal of American troops from Iraq, the situation in the country may worsen, since terrorists of the "Islamic State" are still here (a terrorist group banned in the Russian Federation - ed.). In this regard, official Baghdad may well invite the Russian military to the country, in which, by the way, Russia is quite interested.

It is a pity that you will not "work" there, gentlemen, sofa analysts and strategists. And even orientalists. Children of respected people, officials and businessmen, will not "work" there either. For example, I will give a case from my personal life. In 1953 I was 20 years old, I am a student mobilized by the Ministry of Defense to work in military unit 44708zh (this is very far away) as a translator. In June, I brought a suitcase with the ashes of my boss from the naval base, who trained local marines in firing recoilless guns and mortars. And two suitcases with his personal belongings, gifts for the family. To be honest, I was glad when, according to the order, I handed these things to the doctor of our Embassy and the manager of the embassy town. And with horror I wondered how these three items would be handed over to the widow of the deceased. In Riga, he is survived by his wife, a nurse, and two small children. Yes, it happens, you say, without getting up from the couch. But it wouldn't have been better. People should be protected, and not vaguely formulated "interests" should be defended. My friend and colleague, a leading expert on Syria, awarded a medal of the Ministry of Defense, who has visited more than one "hot spot" in the Middle East, could not clearly explain to me what these "interests in Syria are. And in Iraq ...

Russia will work there (supply of weapons, training), but Iran will occupy the niche, not Russia. Russia will agree with Iran

Why should Russia take the place of the US military ?. Especially in Iraq !? Russia has many unresolved tasks in neighboring Syria.
