Iraq Crisis Brief: Iran's Coup By Proxy - a podcast by Institute for the Study of War

The Iraqi prime minister's concessions to protesters reflects one aspect of the ongoing crisis, but it is only a part of the story unfolding. There remains a fierce and ongoing competition for the future of Iraq. ISW Research Director Jennifer Cafarella is joined by the Critical Threats Project's Iran Analyst Nicholas Carl to discuss the Iraqi government's recent actions, what the information environment tells us about the situation on the ground, and how the Iranian regime is positioning its proxies as it vies for greater control. *Originally published October 7, 2019.
