GZERO World with Ian Bremmer: Iraq War’s legacy: Loss of lives, rise of ISIS, & political turmoil

Thought Leader: Ian Bremmer
March 20, 2023

It’s been 20 years since the US-led invasion of Iraq began. Can we say the world is any better off? Despite its official end over a decade ago, the war still casts a long shadow––the loss of countless Iraqi lives, the emergence of ISIS, and continued political turmoil and sectarian violence in the region. Moreover, the war significantly damaged the United States’ credibility, making it difficult to gather global support against current threats such as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

On the GZERO World podcast, Ian Bremmer interviews US Senator Tammy Duckworth and NBC News Chief Foreign Correspondent Richard Engel. Their firsthand experiences and perspectives offer a more profound comprehension of the intricate legacy of the Iraq War and its implications for international politics.
