In the present study, the Islamic Republic of Iran’s foreign policy on post-Saddam Iraq is investigated. With the U.S and its allies attacking Iraq in 2003, Iraqi Baath regime was overthrown and a new Iraq with new policy emerged. With a change in the structure of power and sovereignty of Iraq, the ground for the presentation and penetration of regional actors including Iran was provided in this country and the question is raised “what policy the Islamic Republic of Iran has followed on post-Saddam Iraq and what goal it pursues”. Drawing on analytical-descriptive synthetic method, the findings of the present study indicate that Islamic Republic of Iran’s policy on post-Saddam is based on collaboration and coalition, in that I.R. Iran has laid an emphasis on consolidation and establishment of the Shia in the political structure of Iraq and the reinforcement of the country’s central government, in an effort to bolster its penetration domain and reduce threats caused by Iraq’s developments to its homeland security. <br />  <br />
