The White House confirmed President Donald Trump spoke with Iraqi Prime Minister Adil Abdul-Mahdi to discuss security matters after an attack on the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad, Iraq, as Trump wrote that the embassy has been “safe” for several “hours.”
After Trump spoke with Abdul-Mahdi, the White House said in a statement on Tuesday that “the two leaders discussed regional security issues and President Trump emphasized the need to protect United States personnel and facilities in Iraq.” The White House did not elaborate on what the two specifically talked about.
