AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

US-Iran Tensions: The ceasefire is being tested fast. While Iran’s delegation reportedly moved toward talks in Doha, CENTCOM says it struck Iranian forces in southern Iran to stop mine-laying in the Strait of Hormuz—boats sunk, missile sites hit—showing enforcement is still on the table. Iraq Governance: Iraq’s PM Ali al-Zaidi escalated pressure on oversight, criticizing the Federal Board of Supreme Audit for delayed reviews and ordering tighter contract controls plus pre- and post-auditing, with help from international firms. Heritage Meets Tech: Baghdad reopened its historic postal headquarters in al-Qishla, pushing modernization while requiring ministries to use the state postal service for official documents. Regional Trade: Turkey’s ambassador says Ankara wants Iraq trade to reach $30bn annually, betting on deeper links through projects like the Development Road. Security Watch: A recent Iraq-linked arrest tied to an Iran-backed terror network highlights how decentralized plots are harder to stop.
