Occupation Forces Remain Alone Print E-mail

American occupation forces become alone in Iraq along with British forces after pulling out of many of their alliances in Multi-National occupation forces.

The last one of them is the Lithuanian occupation forces contingent officially brought its mission in Iraq to a close in 16 December 2008 during a ceremony at Al Faw Palace according to the official statement.

The statement said: 


"The Lithuanians have provided an infantry platoon and multiple staff officers in support of Multi-National Force – Iraq, Multi-National Corps – Iraq,  Multi-National, Division – South East and Multi-National Division – Central South since 2003.

The contingent, with the use of its infantry platoon deployed to Forward Operating Bases Delta and Echo, has provided security and a quick reaction force in support of U.S. and coalition forces. They also provided essential training to members of the Iraqi Security Forces, to include combat lifesaver training, improvised explosive device courses, MEDEVAC request instruction and driver’s training."

It seems that with these latest developments Anglo-American occupation forces cannot stay a long time especially after increasing heroic Iraqi Resistance operations throughout Iraq.
