Baghdad – APA. US Defense Secretary Robert Gates made an unexpected visit to Iraq on Wednesday. He arrived in Iraq to meet with U.S. troops. Gates flew to Iraq from Milwaukee and his plane landed at Al-Asad Air Base, about 100 miles west of Baghdad. The Pentagon chief told an American Legion audience in Milwaukee that Iraq’s problems had not all been solved despite US troops formally close down their combat mission. US President Barack Obama told Americans on Tuesday that the military operations in Iraq formally ended, but situation in the country remained unstable. US troops have started to leave Iraq since early August.
