In Baghdad, Iraq the Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki passed a new law that holds elections based on the U.S withdrawing troops. It is unclear if when the election for a new parliament will take place. The UN encouraged the elections to be held on February 27, 2010. The U.S will keep troops in Iran until 60 days after the voting takes place. 50,000 troops will be in the country until 2011. http://www.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/meast/12/07/iraq.elections/index.html
