The French President Emmanuel Macron is at a summit in Jordan at which various regional crises are being discussed. Under particular discussion: the situation in neighbouring Iraq a country that has endured nearly 20 years of turmoil since the US-led invasion which toppled Saddam Hussein. The talks — which have been dubbed Baghdad II — follow on from a summit last year in the Iraqi capital which was organised by President Macron.
