The end of the American military presence in Iraq has rekindled comparisons with the US withdrawal from Afghanistan, given the similarities in some of the political motivations that drove both decisions.

Available analyses suggest that both withdrawals came within the framework of a broader American trend toward reassessing overseas military deployments, although the circumstances surrounding implementation in Iraq differ from those that accompanied the withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021.

The potential security implications of the withdrawal from Iraq remain a subject of debate among observers, particularly regarding the capacity of Iraqi forces to fill the security vacuum that may result from the departure of US troops.

Available information did not include additional details about the full timeline of the withdrawal or the reactions of relevant regional parties.
