The difference between the current and future American ambassador in Iraq
By comparing the statement read by Elina Romanovsky, the current American ambassador to Iraq, at the time of her introduction to the Senate, it can be said that “Romanovsky” in his defense session in The US Senate was trying to present a balanced text far from any confrontation with Iran and resistance groups. “Romanovski” did not name the resistance groups in this meeting in order to demonstrate his country’s interactionist policy.
In his record, he tried to change the policy of maximum and comprehensive pressure that Donald Trump, the former president of the United States, brings to Iraq. According to Romanovsky, this change of direction in the American policies towards Iraq was the beginning of reforming the image of the Americans in the eyes of the young people of Iraq.

On the other hand, Jacobsen read his controversial text with baseless accusations against Iran and resistance groups. In the Senate meeting, he claimed that Iran is the cause of instability in Iraq and introduced the resistance groups as the main threat to America’s interests in Iraq and admitted that he will use all the tools available to Washington to deal with these groups.
“Jacobsen” made Iraq the priority of American foreign policy and emphasized the presence of ISIS with the aim of continuing the American mission.
Who is “Tracy Jacobsen” ? And for a short period of time, he was the assistant minister of foreign affairs for international organizations, who retired after leaving this position, and with the election of Biden in the US presidential election in 2020, he resumed his work as the director of the US Department of State’s special group on Afghanistan affairs.
“Tracy Jacobsen” more than 30 years experience He has served in the diplomatic and intelligence services of the United States. During these years, he has been in charge of the Iran and Iraq case and other Middle East cases. Handing over the responsibility of the American embassy in Baghdad to “Jacobsen” will coincide with the intensification of the confrontational policy of the United States towards countries active in the field of resistance.
