What the coverage shows

Both outlets frame the story as the departure of U.S. forces from Iraq and the shifting balance that follows. France 24 foregrounds fears of a security vacuum and specifically says Iraqi officials and analysts warn that Iran-backed militias and Islamic State could be emboldened, while the Washington Post emphasizes the withdrawal as a milestone in two decades of U.S. involvement and says the balance of power shifts to Iran.
