None
The head of one of two main blocs in Iraq's Parliament is denouncing US President Donald Trump's unannounced visit, calling it a "blatant violation of Iraq's sovereignty."
Sabah al-Saidi says he is calling for an emergency session of Parliament to discuss Trump's visit Wednesday evening.
Al-Saidi, who heads the Islah bloc, said "the American occupation of Iraq is over." He said Trump should not be allowed to arrive "as if Iraq is a state of the United States."
