US envoy calls for stronger judicial ties with Iraq

Iraq ·

Tom Barrack, the US special envoy to Iraq and Syria, said on Tuesday that judicial cooperation and independent judicial institutions were needed to deepen US-Iraq relations, alongside wider partnerships in energy, investment and security. He made the remarks after talks in London with an Iraqi delegation led by Faiq Zaidan, president of the Supreme Judicial Council.

Iraq's Supreme Judicial Council is the top body overseeing the country's judiciary. Washington and Baghdad have maintained close security and economic ties since the US-led invasion of 2003.
