U.S. Ends Military Mission in Iraq After More Than 20 Years
The United States is ending its military mission in Iraq, closing out a presence that began with the 2003 invasion and lasted more than two decades. The move marks a major shift in the American military footprint in the Middle East, following years of pressure from Iraqi political factions demanding the withdrawal of U.S.-led coalition forces.
Why now: The formal end of a two-decade American military presence is a landmark development in Middle East security.
