Iraqi Prime Minister said on Friday that Syria is a neighboring country and that economic cooperation between the two states is important, adding that he will visit Syria soon. The statement, reported by a Middle East news channel, comes amid a broader Iraqi diplomatic effort to reduce Iranian influence in the region. As The Zioneer reported on June 24, Iraqi PM Al-Zaidi stated that US-Iraq ties would shift from military to economic partnership, signaling a move toward economic diplomacy. The latest announcement extends that approach to Syria, a country that has been re-engaging with regional states after years of isolation. The details of the visit, including timing, have not been announced.
