Carnegie’s Karim Sadjadpour appeared on BBC's The World Tonight to discuss Iranian President Ahmadinejad’s recent trip to Iraq. Sadjadpour argues that "Iran's role in Iraq is very much a by-product of U.S.-Iran relations. As long as U.S.-Iran relations remain antagonistic and Iran senses that the U.S. government would prefer a different regime in Tehran, then Iran is going to feel an incentive to play an unconstructive role in Iraq."
