FACTBOX-Foreign military forces in Iraq

Dec 24 (Reuters) - El Salvador, the only Latin American country with troops in Iraq, said on Tuesday it would bring its soldiers home after a U.N. mandate expires at the end of the year.

The mandate legalises the presence of forces from Britain, Australia, El Salvador, Romania, Estonia and NATO, and Iraq's parliament approved a measure on Tuesday allowing them to stay longer.

Salvadorean President Tony Saca said the 200 soldiers from El Salvador would leave Iraq in January.

Here is a table of the remaining coalition forces in Iraq.
