On January 27, 2026, U.S. President Donald Trump issued a direct warning to Baghdad on his Truth Social platform, stating that the United States "would not help" Iraq if Nouri al-Maliki were reappointed prime minister, describing his previous terms as having "led to poverty and total chaos."

Trump warned that Iraq "would have no chance of success" without Washington's support, a statement that triggered immediate Iraqi and international reactions and ignited a broader debate over Trump's political motives and the implications of overt U.S. intervention in Iraq's government formation process.
