The committee would include representatives of the military coalition, a government official said.
The U.S. military launched Thursday’s strike in retaliation against recent attacks on U.S. personnel, the Pentagon said.
Iran-aligned militia groups in Iraq and Syria oppose Israel’s campaign in the Gaza Strip and hold the U.S. partly responsible.
Iraqi PM Sudani has limited control over some Iran-backed factions, whose support he needed to win power a year ago and who now form a powerful bloc in his governing coalition.
“We stress our firm position in ending the existence of the international coalition after the justifications for its existence have ended,” Sudani was quoted as saying in the statement.
Daesh claimed responsibility on Thursday for two explosions in Iran that killed nearly 100 people and wounded scores at a memorial for top commander Qassem Soleimani.
A political adviser close to the Iraqi prime minister said Sudani was falling under huge pressure from powerful Shi’ite parties close to Iran seeking to end the U.S. presence in Iraq and his recent statement was aimed at “appeasing angry parties within the governing Shi’ite coalition against the United States”.
Still, it was unclear if Baghdad’s announcement on Friday was mainly posturing for internal, political purposes or if the newly announced committee would truly set into motion an inexorable process to end America’s military presence in Iraq, a longtime goal of Iran and groups Iran supports.
