UK and Iraq agree joint plan to tackle people smuggling gangs responsible for thousands of migrants crossing the Channel in small boats.
Agreement will involve greater intelligence sharing and more joint law enforcement operations.
UK will give Iraqi law enforcement 300,000 for training in border security, focused on organised immigration crime and drug trafficking.
New communications campaign to try to counter smuggler propaganda on social media.
Iraq 's interior minister insists the new agreement will help tackle this.
The agreement will involve training, exchange of expertise and intelligence coordination in tracking wanted individuals.
For example, for a boat that is heavily loaded, we pay 1,200 euros for a large number of people.
We hope this cooperation will serve as a starting point for broader collaboration across all ministries.
