The Ba’ath party in Iraq and the invasion of Iran
Regional and international role
The Arab countries – except Algeria, Libya and Syria – sided with Iraq in this war, and he took full advantage of their generous support, which amounted to $ 3 billion in arms each year.
Iraq supplied its weapons needs first from France, then from China and the Soviet Union, and to a lesser extent from the United States, but was supported in the field of satellite imagery services and spare parts by the United States, Britain, and France.
