Kurdistan Region President Nechirvan Barzani on Tuesday called for continued coordination between the Peshmerga, the army and the Iraqi security forces to combat terrorism after the end of the US-led Coalition mission.
During talks in Erbil with Iraq’s National Security Adviser Qasim al-Aboudi, both sides discussed the threat of terrorism and the security situation in the country.

Hours earlier, al-Aboudi told the Middle East Research Institute’s MERI Forum 2026 that Iraqi forces still lack the advanced surveillance technology the Coalition used to track militants, and that a plan to re-equip the security forces is under study.
The Coalition ended its military mission in Iraq on September 30.
