Baghdad embassy lacks secure housing, may be delayed again

“The new U.S. Embassy complex does not have enough fortified living quarters for hundreds of diplomats and other workers, who must remain temporarily in trailers without special rooftop protection against mortars and rockets,” government officials told the AP today. The lack of housing may “further delay moving all personnel” into the embassy, already mired in construction delays, until next year. The issue has become increasingly relevant since Shi’ite militias “resumed steady attacks on the enclave in late March as part of backlash to an Iraqi-led crackdown.”

 

Politics is like driving. To go backwards, put it in R.
To go forward, put it in D.

Please do not use republican and competence in the same sentence, the
same paragraph, the same article. They are direct opposites.

I figured you'd fill in the "lack of" for yourself.
