(It’s at thee end of thee article..)

It’s not really reported by many news outlets at all, but thee USA has an estimated 2,500 troops stationed in Iraq currently still.

According to that article, thee US presence in Iraq is violating international law and is affecting the country’s national sovereignty..

My question is though, what specific international law is USA breaking by having troops in Iraq?

Thee war Operation Iraqi Freedom may have happened over 20 years ago in 2003, but I believe Iraq would be in even more chaos/anarchy and overrun by terrorist organizations if USA left completely and let the country be..

(Affecting the country’s sovereignty.. Is that thee international law USA is breaking?)

Well, if anyone is educated/knowledgable on thee subject, please inform me/discuss..

Barack Obama took most US troops out of Iraq in 2014 against numerous military general’s rule, and then ISIS was unfortunately formed..

Imagine if USA pulled most of its troops out of Iraq again..

(The country would probably be in even worst chaos/lawlessness than it is now..)

So can anyone tell me what international law USA is violating by having US troops in Iraq still in 2024?

Obama ignored general’s pleas to keep American forces in Iraq

The last American commander in Iraq recommended to the Obama administration that 23,000 U.S. troops remain to cement the victory, but no deal was ever reached with Baghdad, and all combat forces went home.
