After the U.S invasion to Iraq in 2003 the relations between Iraq and turkey tensioned due to the Turkish regional role in the region despite the attempt of the justice and development party in using the diplomacy by pushing the Turkish companies in the reconstruction of Iraq but the weakness of these companies and financial and administrative corruption as well as the tension in the relations between the former Iraqi prime minister Nuri Al Maliki and the Turkish prim minister Recep Tayeb Erdogan and the war of speeches resulted to lower the level of the relations between the countries. The crisis aggravation between the countries without having solutions for them will draw a black future for these relations with the associated need for the cooperation due to the war against the terrorism who threaten the national security in the both of them. | ||
