According to Al-Sumaria News, an Iraqi official announced that the United States has extended for an additional three months the exemption granted to Iraq from sanctions imposed on Iran in the energy field, which will allow Baghdad to continue importing gas and electricity.

US sanctions on Iraq returned in April 2018 after US President Donald Trump abandoned the nuclear agreement with Iran, and through the decision to exempt from sanctions on Iran, Iraq is allowed to import energy until the beginning of next April.
