Iraq requested the termination of the United Nations Assistance Mission for Iraq (UNAMI) operations by the end of 2025, the Iraqi government said.
In a statement the Prime Minister Mohammed Shia’ al-Sudani said based on the findings by the UN-formed Independent Strategic Review Team, Iraq’s request for UNAMI to end by 2025 is a timeline sufficient for a responsible closure.
The statement added that the Iraqi government anticipates a UN Security Council resolution by the end of May in response to Iraq’s request and the Independent Strategic Review Team’s recommendations.
UNAMI is a special political mission established in 2003 by UN Security Council Resolution 1500, at the request of the Iraqi government.
