On Monday King Abdullah of Jordan became the first Arab leader to visit
Iraq since the invasion and occupation in 2003. Other regional powers
have been engaging the country as violence has dipped. Bahrain is
setting up an embassy (a diplomat was held hostage for two weeks in
2006), UAE has appointed an ambassador, and Egypt's considering sending
an ambassador (their last envoy was killed in 2005). Iraq is making
friends again--for now at least. Reuters has a sort of
state-of-regional-relations roundup.
