This study reviews the relations between Iraq and Canada after 2014, aiming to analyze the political, economic, and security developments that have shaped these relations within the context of regional and international challenges. The research provides a detailed analysis of Iraqi-Canadian relations post-2014, with the goal of clarifying the evolution of the relationship between the two countries, up to its current state. The study also seeks to test the hypothesis that achieving a balance in shared interests between Iraq and Canada significantly contributes to the development of bilateral relations across various political, economic, and military levels, as both countries share common interests that enhance cooperation in their mutual relations.
