Iraq's announcement of the permanent expulsion of all US troops sent a strong signal to US hegemony. Iraqi Prime Minister Al-Sudani recently announced the decision, indicating that Iraq** will set up a group to terminate the duties of the US-led coalition forces in Iraq. Iraq** adviser Rikabi revealed that Iraq** is rapidly advancing negotiations with the international coalition led by the United States, with the goal of promoting a full withdrawal of coalition forces from Iraq.
This is a clear signal that Iraq no longer welcomes the presence of the United States and is ready to take action to get them out as soon as possible. Rikabi also stressed that Iraqi Prime Minister Al-Sudani has closely monitored the composition of the country's armed forces in order to prepare for various possibilities after the withdrawal. Iraq's independence is no longer just rhetoric, and they are challenging "US hegemony" with concrete actions. At the same time, both the actions of the Houthis in Yemen in the Red Sea and Iraq's decision to expel US troops are open resistance to the United States.
This turn is undoubtedly a blow to US hegemony and shows that US influence in the Middle East is declining significantly. Behind these developments are deeper changes in the global political landscape. A few months ago, Iraq** reacted strongly to US air strikes. Iraq** has made it clear that it wants to "drive the international coalition forces out of Iraq," which indicates that anti-American sentiment in the Middle East is becoming stronger and stronger, and the hegemony of the United States is becoming more and more unstable.
The fact that the United States had a significant presence in the Middle East has now completely changed is a major challenge to American hegemony. America's global dominance is shaking, as a result of the gradual erosion of American power.
