🔥 “Washington’s Leverage Play? How the Dollar Could Shake Iraq’s Next Government” 🔥
✨ HIGHLIGHTS SUMMARY
🇮🇶 Iraq’s 2025 electoral map is shifting fast — Armed factions have expanded their power in parliament, achieving their largest representation since 2003.
🗳️ Civilian groups born from the October protests failed to fill the political vacuum due to internal fractures and declining influence.
💵 Washington may use financial pressure via the US dollar as leverage, potentially destabilizing the next Baghdad government if its conditions — especially those tied to the Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF) — aren’t met.
🇺🇸 The anticipated high-level American visit signals renewed U.S. focus on Iraq’s political trajectory.
⚖️ The next Iraqi government faces a delicate balancing act between domestic factions and sensitive U.S. demands, particularly the legal status of the PMF, described by some analysts as “a thorn in Iraq’s side.”
🧩 With rising factional influence and Washington’s pressure, Iraq’s new parliament is stepping into one of the most complex political equations since 2003.

2025 Elections: * "This void wasn't filled by the civilian groups close to the October protests, whose presence had waned due to internal divisions and a sense of betrayal. Instead, a significant portion of this void flowed in a completely different direction: towards the armed factions, which emerged from the ballot boxes with their largest parliamentary representation since 2003". * "as a direct pressure tactic against the next Iraqi government, potentially destabilizing it if it fails to implement the conditions related to the Popular Mobilization Forces." that * "the anticipated American visit is a confirmation of Washington's interest in what is happening in Iraq". * "the next government will face a more complex challenge in balancing these pressures, especially since the new parliament will have to deal with sensitive American conditions, most notably the legal status of the Popular
Mobilization"
