Mustafa Abdul Latif Mishatat (Arabic: مصطفى عبد اللطيف مشتت; born 5 July 1967),[1][2] known as Mustafa al-Kadhimi, alternatively spelt Mustafa al-Kadhimy, is an Iraqi politician, lawyer, bureaucrat and former intelligence officer who served as the Prime Minister of Iraq from May 2020 to October 2022.[3] He previously served as columnist for several news outlets and the Director of the Iraqi National Intelligence Service,[4] originally appointed in June 2016.[5] He briefly served as Iraqi Minister of Foreign Affairs in an acting capacity in 2020. The latter part of his tenure closely followed the 2022 Iraqi political crisis. On the 25th of February 2025, he has returned to Baghdad after a period of forced exile due to security threats and an assassination attempt. His return comes at the invitation of political leaders who see his role as crucial in helping safeguard the country from an economic crisis that could jeopardize political stability.[6]
