Iraqi Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi will make his first official visit abroad next week, meeting with President Trump in Washington.

Ali al-Zaidi will make his first official visit abroad next week since taking office, with a meeting scheduled with American President Donald Trump. The visit, which will take place on Monday, comes in the context of pressures exerted by the US on Baghdad for the disarmament of pro-Iranian groups, accused of attacks on American infrastructure in Iraq.

Al-Zaidi, who came to power in April with US support, will be accompanied by a high-level delegation. Discussions will focus on strengthening economic relations, particularly in the oil and energy sector, considering Iraq's urgent need to revive its economy affected by conflicts.

The Prime Minister has promised the disarmament of pro-Iranian groups, although he faces opposition from some powerful factions. The state monopoly on weapons is considered essential for internal stability and attracting investors.
