WASHINGTON: US Defense Secretary Mark Esper has said his country has no plans to pull its troops out of Iraq.

Responding to a letter informing Iraqi officials about the repositioning of troops in preparation to leave the country, he said the message was sent by “mistake”.

He said that there has been no decision whatsoever to leave.

Earlier, the head of the US military’s Task Force in Iraq, Brigadier General William Seely informed his Iraqi counterparts in a letter that troops are preparing to leave the country after Iraqi parliament had called for them to leave by passing a resolution.

Top US officials have said that the letter was a draft only and neither finalized nor signed. It was circulated among US and Iraqi military officials to get their opinion in this regard, they said. One US official said they meant to discuss leaving the Green Zone and move to protect other areas rather than leaving Iraq.

The fresh development came after the Iraqi government requested the US troops to leave their land.

This coalition memo appears to be genuine – but also misleading and badly phrased. Am told by coalition source that it’s to let #Iraq know that US is moving troops out of Green Zone to provide Force Protection elsewhere. NOT leaving #Iraq pic.twitter.com/Erpid6ct6E
