Obama- Al-Maliki’s Meeting: US Final Days
With the US occupation withdrawal from Iraq in its final days, US President Barack Obama and Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki will meet at the White House Monday to discuss the next phase of the relationship between their countries.
The withdrawal of all American troops on Dec. 31 marks the end of a nearly nine-year war occupation.
In addition to his meeting with al-Maliki, Obama will mark the milestone Wednesday when he speaks to troops at North Carolina's Fort Bragg.
As of late last week, the number of US troops in Iraq had dwindled to about 8,000, down from 170,000 at the war's peak in 2007.
Monday's meeting between Obama and al-Maliki is expected to focus heavily on how US and Iraq will continue to cooperate on security issues without the presence of American troops.
The White House said Obama and al-Maliki would also discuss cooperation on energy, trade and education.
