Iraqi President Praises Achievements Of President Trump: ‘Very Significantly Important Man’

The President of Iraq Nizar Amedi told Breitbart News that American President Donald Trump is a “very significantly important man” in the scheme of history who can bring peace and prosperity not just to the Middle East but to the whole world by formally ending the war in Iran.

Amedi, speaking to Breitbart News through a translator, encouraged Trump to return to his focus on ending wars around the world, something Trump put a huge emphasis on during his 2024 presidential campaign and in his first year or so upon returning to the White House. Trump, of course, helped negotiate peace deals ending a number of wars and conflicts worldwide before the U.S. ended up ensnared in a prolonged conflict with Iran.

“Mr. Trump is a very significantly important man,” Amedi told Breitbart News. “He rules a very large nation. I want him to go back to first when he got elected, which was to end all wars, whether it’s the war between Ukraine and Russia or any other wars in the world. He should go back to that and bring peace to the region and end wars just like the ones he has already done.”

Amedi positioned Iraq as a key possible interlocutor between the two warring parties and said his message to both is to take advantage of the opportunity for true lasting peace now.

“Iraq is in the best place geographically and in a connectional matter between Iran and the U.S. There is a lot of opportunity for the U.S. as a partner for many years as well as Iran being an old neighbor of ours since forever,” Amedi told Breitbart News. “I have a single message for the U.S. and Iran: the sun is still shining. As long as you guys have the daylight where the sun is shining, you have to try and get along because there will come a time once the darkness comes where there won’t be room to do this anymore.”

IRAN MISSILE COUNT: U.S. intelligence agencies estimate Iran still has 1,500 to 2,500 missiles, enough to hit U.S. and allied targets if all-out war resumes, according to a report, undercutting administration claims that Iran's military has been decimated.

IRAN MISSILE COUNT: U.S. intelligence agencies estimate Iran still has 1,500 to 2,500 missiles, enough to hit U.S. and allied targets if all-out war resumes, according to a report, undercutting administration claims that Iran’s military has been decimated.

U.S. officials called it a low-confidence assessment because pinning down how many missiles Iran has ready to fire or in storage is difficult, but said the regime clearly retains a formidable stockpile.

Despite U.S. and Israeli strikes on its missile production plants, Iran has continued rebuilding its arsenal, mostly from stockpiled components and at a slower pace than before the war, the officials said.

As of Sunday, President Donald Trump had opted to maintain pressure on Tehran through a blockade and sanctions rather than order large-scale attacks, the Journal reported.

Israel sees a similar picture. Israeli military officials put Iran’s arsenal at more than 1,500 ballistic missiles, according to the Journal, and an Israeli security source told Israel Hayom this month that Iran has more than 1,700 missiles capable of reaching Israeli territory, nearly 800 fewer than prewar estimates.

Simone Ledeen, who oversaw Middle East policy at the Pentagon during Trump’s first term, said even the low-end figure would mean Iran had replenished more than half its estimated prewar stockpile, according to the Journal.

The findings run counter to the administration’s public statements.

Speaking at Arlington National Cemetery on Veterans Day, Trump said the United States wanted a “total victory, not a 93% victory,” The Jerusalem Post reported, and claimed Iran would need 25 years to rebuild what U.S. forces destroyed.

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth told reporters Tuesday that Iran’s defense-industrial base had been wiped out, the Journal reported.
