Reuters: Sources told Reuters that Mark Savage, the U.S. President Donald Trump’s special envoy to Iraq, has left his post after just four months in office, with reports naming Tom Brake as his potential replacement.
The move comes amid rising tensions between Washington and Baghdad, stemming from U.S. efforts to curb Iranian influence and opposition to former Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki’s return. While Savage has closed his account on X (formerly Twitter), he denied to Reuters that he had resigned, affirming that he is continuing to complete the administrative procedures for his position.
