French President Emmanuel Macron said on Tuesday he would travel to Iraq on Wednesday, his first visit to the country, after two days in Lebanon, APA reports quoting Reuters.

French officials have said Paris was concerned by a resurgence in Iraq of the Islamic State group, which is profiting from political uncertainty in the country and rivalries between Iran and the United States in the region.
