美国及其联盟伙伴已正式结束在伊拉克的“坚定决心”行动，五角大楼首席发言人肖恩·帕内尔周三表示。
The US and its coalition partners have formally concluded Operation Inherent Resolve in Iraq, Chief Pentagon Spokesman Sean Parnell said Wednesday.
帕内尔在一份声明中表示，这一结束符合2024年9月美伊联合声明以及美国的国家利益。
In a statement, Parnell said the conclusion was consistent with the September 2024 US-Iraq joint statement and US national interests.
他表示，联军部队和装备从埃尔比勒空军基地“有序撤离”，标志着击败伊拉克境内“伊斯兰国”（ISIS）的军事任务“成功结束”。
The “orderly departure” of coalition forces and equipment from Erbil Air Base marked the “successful conclusion” of the military mission that defeated ISIS in Iraq, he said.
帕内尔称：“这一里程碑反映了历时12年的战役取得成功，在伊拉克及整个地区击败了作为有组织军事威胁的‘伊斯兰国’。”
“This milestone reflects the success of a 12-year campaign that defeated ISIS as an organized military threat in Iraq and across the region,” Parnell said.
他指出，这一进展还“标志着从战时联盟任务向由伊拉克主导、并基于更正常双边安全关系提供支持的安保努力转变”。帕内尔表示：“我们预期伊拉克安全部队，包括库尔德斯坦地区的佩什梅加及其他安全部队，将领导持续的努力，以保障伊拉克安全并压制‘伊斯兰国’残余势力。”
He said the development also “marks a transition from a wartime coalition mission to an Iraqi-led security effort supported by a more normal bilateral security relationship.”“We expect the Iraqi Security Forces, including the Peshmerga and other security forces in the Iraqi Kurdistan Region, to lead the continuing effort to secure Iraq and keep ISIS remnants suppressed,” Parnell said.
他补充说，战争部将继续为伊拉克伙伴提供“有针对性的培训和情报支持”。
The Department of War will continue to provide “targeted training and intelligence support” to Iraqi partners, he added.
帕内尔表示：“应对伊拉克剩余安全挑战的主要责任，包括压制‘伊斯兰国’残余势力以及破坏伊拉克主权和地区稳定的亲伊朗民兵，现在落在伊拉克政府身上。”
“The primary responsibility for addressing Iraq’s remaining security challenges, including ISIS remnants and Iran-aligned militias that undermine Iraqi sovereignty and regional stability, now rests with the Government of Iraq,” Parnell said.
他补充道：“美国依然致力于反恐”，并将继续与伊拉克及其伙伴合作，确保“伊斯兰国”“永远无法从伊拉克领土上重新集结”。
“The United States remains committed to counterterrorism” and will continue to work with Iraq and its partners to ensure ISIS “can never reconstitute from Iraqi territory,” he added.
帕内尔表示，美国支持一个“强大且主权的伊拉克”，该伊拉克能够保障其边境安全、保护其人民，并作为两国之间“更深层次商业、外交和安全合作”的基础。
Parnell said the US supports “a strong sovereign Iraq” that secures its borders, protects its people and serves as the foundation for “deeper commercial, diplomatic, and security cooperation” between the two countries.
巴格达和华盛顿于2024年9月同意按照延续至2026年9月底的时间表，结束联军在伊拉克的军事任务，并逐步转向伊拉克与联军成员国之间的双边安全关系。
Baghdad and Washington agreed in September 2024 to end the coalition’s military mission in Iraq under a timetable extending through the end of September 2026, with a transition to bilateral security relations between Iraq and coalition member states.
联军于2014年在美国领导下组建，当时“伊斯兰国”攫取了伊拉克和叙利亚的大片领土，并在针对该组织的行动中向伊拉克部队提供空中支援、情报和训练支持。
The coalition was formed under US leadership in 2014 after ISIS seized large areas of Iraq and Syria, providing Iraqi forces with air, intelligence and training support during operations against the group.
伊拉克于2017年12月宣布，已重新完全控制被“伊斯兰国”占领的全部领土。
Iraq announced in December 2017 that it had regained full control of territory seized by ISIS.
