The impact of the Baghdad Pact on Iraqi-Syrian relations in light of the discussions of the Syrian Parliament 1955-1958)
Abstract
Iraqi-Syrian relations developed after World War II and almost led to unity between the two countries due to the common factors between them, but the emergence of the Baghdad Pact on the international political scene led to the deterioration of the relationship between the two countries and a rift occurred between them as a result of each of them adopting a special philosophy in managing its foreign policy. Syria viewed the Baghdad Pact as a Western project aimed at protecting the Zionist entity and imposing Western hegemony over the Arab region, while Iraq sought to obtain the support of the great powers to catch up with them and gain from their civilizational development, seeking to include other Arab countries in the aforementioned pact, especially Syria, which prompted the latter to confront it and join the Arab bloc opposing it led by Egypt and began supporting the Iraqi opposition until the monarchy fell in Iraq and it left the Baghdad Pact.
