The Iraq Inquiry

The Iraq Inquiry, also known as the Chilcot Inquiry, was a UK government investigation into the UK's involvement in the Iraq War starting in 2003. It examined decisions made by political and military leaders, including the justification for war, planning, and aftermath. The goal was to understand what happened, identify lessons, and ensure accountability. The inquiry highlighted issues such as inadequate intelligence, rushed decision-making, and poor planning for post-war stability. Released in 2016, its findings aimed to provide transparency and inform future government actions regarding military interventions.
