rammstien Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 Looks like Maliki,s back in for another term. Read it here first! http://www.presstv.ir/detail/2014/05/23/363841/nouri-almaliki-nominated-for-pm/ Fri May 23, 2014 1:40PM GMT 0 2 5 Download | Embed Related Interviews: 'Huge turnout sign of democracy in Iraq' ‘Iraq violence aimed at undermining PM’ Related Viewpoints: Al-Qaeda’s real origins exposed Iraq’s State of Law Coalition has officially named incumbent Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki as its only candidate for premiership. The coalition says it is ready to negotiate with all political parties in Iraq over its choice for prime minister. Reports say all the members of the coalition have voted for al-Maliki. The alliance won 92 seats in Iraq's recent parliamentary elections. State of Law Coalition, however, fell short of an overall majority. This means that Maliki's chances for a new term are high, but he requires approaching other groups in order to secure a broader majority coalition inside parliament. Al-Maliki needs the support of smaller parties such as those of Shia cleric Moqtada al-Sadr, and Kurdish regional President Massud Barzani. The announced results could still be challenged or change before they are finally certified by Iraq’s Supreme Court. The formation of the Iraqi government is anticipated to take months as the president and the speaker of parliament should be also selected. Under a de facto agreement among communities in Iraq, the prime minister is a Shia Arab, the president a Kurd and the parliament speaker a Sunni Arab. The vote came amid a surge in violence that has reportedly left more than 3,500 people dead this year. Maliki has said Saudi Arabia and Qatar are responsible for the security crisis and growing terrorism in his country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rissas dad Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 Looks like you are posting an article that's supports your opinion of him staying in. Nothing more. The state of law putting up Maliki isn't news, and its isn't final to anything. The "alliance" referenced is not the National Alliance, its just the state of law. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magdalen Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 Don't take this article seriously. It's simply public relations propagated by the State of Law. Maliki is out, it's just a matter of time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
