Total fiasco – Pushkov comments on Biden’s announcement of an end to fighting in Iraq

US President Joe Biden has announced the end of combat operations of US troops in Iraq. Relations between the two countries will enter a “new phase”

“Our cooperation in the fight against terrorism will continue in a new phase”, –  Biden said.

According to Alexei Pushkov, the US had made Iraq “a terrorist paradise” and now is absolving itself of responsibility, which is quite in the American spirit.

“It turns out that hanging Saddam Hussein is one thing, but rebuilding life after the occupation in a torn country is quite another. The U.S. failed in Iraq, Libya and Afghanistan. It can destroy but never build. A total fiasco for the United States in the Greater Middle East”, –  the senator wrote in his Telegram channel.
