Summary/Abstract: The stabilization and reconstruction efforts of Iraq are part of a broad strategy of the international community. The latter’s focus is on countering the asymmetrical threats stemming from the new challenges, vulnerabilities and risks at play within the international security environment. At regional level, namely in Iraq, such aspects are even more pressing due to the disappearance of a repressive government that left room for airing out ethnic and religious divergences. However, despite the overall insecurity climate characterizing the post Saddam Hussein Iraq, some progress has been made towards the post-conflict stabilization and reconstruction of this country. Hence, the focus of this paper is on outlining these efforts and their results, as well as on describing the Romanian contribution to such endeavours.
