The United States has told leaders in Iraq’s semi-autonomous Kurdistan region that it does not plan to renew an agreement providing security assistance to the Peshmerga. The proposed change could affect training, equipment, and operational support for the Kurdish security force, a key U.S. partner in the Middle East. Kurdish officials may seek clarification from Washington as they assess the impact on regional security and counterterrorism operations. The decision could also complicate relations between Baghdad, Erbil, and Washington in future.
