The Home Secretary has signed a “landmark” deal with Iraq to crack down on people smuggling and boost border security.
Yvette Cooper made the “world-first security” agreement with Federal Government of Iraq interior minister Abdulameer Al-Shimmeri during a three-day visit to Baghdad and Erbil this week, the Home Office said, representing the “biggest operational package to tackle serious organised crime and people smuggling between the two countries ever”.
