To be able to maintain peace and security in Iraq, al-Maliki would need approval from the opposition
In what may lead to the withdrawal of American troops from Iraq, the outgoing Bush apparatus and the Iraqi government led by Nuri Kamal al-Maliki are close to signing an agreement that would lay out the setting under which American troops would stay put in Iraq for time being and a roadmap for their eventual departure. The draft text on the context came to Iraq's political council for national security full seven months after the negotiation for the same started. Concurrent commotion in Washington and Baghdad hinted that the agreement – formally called a status of forces agreement – is in its final stage.
If accepted, the text will be presented before the Iraqi Parliament, where it is likely to ignite argument among rival splinter groups resolute to secure partisan gain in advance of next year's regional and legislative vote. Policy-makers are under immense popular pressure to lock an earliest possible time limit for the pulling out of the US troops, as well as to guarantee the reinstatement of Iraq's sovereignty.
The preliminary draft asks for the troops to leave Iraq in a phased manner by 2011, “unless asked to provide training and support.” A shared commission would synchronise US military operations. The government will meanwhile assure co-operation during searches of homes and detention of suspects. However, it is far easier said than done. PM al-Maliki is looking for endorsement of the text by two-thirds of the 275-member National Assembly of Iraq.
