Title:
The Future of the Iraqi Popular Mobilization Forces: Lessons from Historical Disarmament, Demobilization, and Reintegration Efforts
Report Date:
2023-01-25
Abstract:
This report presents an analysis of historic cases of disarmament, demobilization, and reintegration (DDR) to inform present U.S. policy on Iraq's Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF). The PMF represent a threat to both Iraqi sovereignty and U.S. policy interests, given that several of these militias retain ties to Iran and many PMF fighters remain loyal to their former commanders despite being formally integrated into the Iraqi armed forces in 2016. Findings from this analysis are intended to inform current and future American policies on the PMF.
