Report: Iraq is heading towards a constitutional situation is mixed after the failure of the extension of parliament

In the policy of  June 29, 2018 on the report: Iraq is heading towards a dysfunctional constitutional status after the failure of the extension of the closed parliament 27 visits

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Iraq is heading towards a flawed constitutional status after the House of Representatives failed to extend its mandate on Thursday due to a lack of quorum, absent legislative power and informed sources that constitutional and legal issues are losing value to political compromises and language of interests.

"The House of Representatives failed on Thursday to extend its term, an option that political parties tried to push on, under the pretext of facing the vacuum caused by the delay in forming a new parliament due to delay in deciding on the results of the elections," the report said on Friday (June 29, 2018). The parliamentary, which is still a source of great quarrels and differences when the vote and the counting of votes from violations and frauds believed to be widespread . "

The newspaper added that "with the end of the legal period of the current parliament this month, Iraq enters a constitutional situation in which absent legislative power, while the executive authority represented by the government of the current Prime Minister Haider Abadi will continue to work necessarily .

"The Council's mandate will end next Saturday, unless the deputies vote on the extension until the completion of the recount of the votes of the general elections, indicating at a press conference that the manual recount will begin next week . "

The parliament had finished last Friday, discuss the amendment of the law allows him to extend his mandate until the ratification of the elimination of the results of the recent parliamentary elections, which allows him to monitor the process of counting and sorting the hand of the expected votes of voters .

The newspaper quoted Mohamed Chihod MP from the National Alliance, the largest bloc in parliament and the problem of 180 seats said, "The House of Representatives postponed the parliamentary session scheduled to vote on the fourth amendment to the election law to another notice."

He added that "the President of the Council assigned the legal committee to set a new date, must be before Saturday, and then can not hold any other meetings." The Iraqi constitution stipulates that the term of the parliament extends for four calendar years, which is explained by experts on the inadmissibility of extending the term of parliament .

The currents and political blocs of Iraq on the extension of the mandate of the parliament, according to their interests and objectives, and tried to get out a legal and constitutional way out .

The report said that, "In general, those who stood behind the attempt to push the extension option are those who lost the elections and questioned the results and pushed for the recount of votes to reach the point of canceling the ballot and return, but the trend now by the influential forces in the Iraqi scene is about to file a file Elections and the rush to form a new government. "

He continued, "Those who made gains in the elections refused to extend the mandate of the parliament, led by the coalition (s) supported by the Shiite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr and the largest number of seats, has been based on that in working to form the largest parliamentary bloc capable of forming a government .

In this regard, the political spokesman for the leader of the Sadrist movement Moqtada al-Sadr that the Saturday is the last day of the parliament after "proved the political vision" by not achieving the quorum of Thursday's session, while attributed the MP for the coalition of Iraqi forces Fares Al-Fares failure to hold the meeting to reject A number of MPs for the option of extending the work of Parliament, and their abstention by supporting the option of recounting electoral votes manually, which was stipulated by a legal amendment passed by parliament earlier .

Earlier this month, the parliament approved a legal amendment allowing manual recounts nationwide, but the Judicial Committee said the move would be limited to areas reported in official reports of allegations of fraud or official complaints. The move would speed up the amendment and approval of final results and the formation of a government New .

"The leaders of most of the political blocs in parliament have made clear they will not support a bill that extends the term of the parliament or re-counts all votes," he said .

The newspaper quoted a source within the House of Representatives, that many members of the parties in several blocks - not called - declined to support the option of extension after they had been enthusiastic before to approve the recounting of the electoral votes, stressing the subordinates subjected to (pressures and bargains) from outside the Council .

The same source said that the trend now by the influential forces in the Iraqi scene, is to "fill" the file of the elections and move forward towards the formation of a new government to ensure the continuation of the political process in Iraq and not collapse, noting that "Tehran and Washington," despite the great differences between them , A common interest in stabilizing the situation in Iraq and its continuation as it is, and did not rule out the majority of the political parties on assurances about securing their share of power that will emerge after "the disengagement on electoral results expected to be in the near future .

The source concluded by saying that, "We are used to Iraq to overcome the legal problems and disagreements over the interpretation of constitutional texts with political assumptions and settlements, which is happening after each election," recalling "what happened in 2010 when a constitutional text was reinterpreted for the benefit of Nuri al-Maliki at the expense of Iyad Allawi, And what happened in the elections in 2014 by agreeing to assign the presidency of the government to Haidar Abadi at the expense of Nuri al-Maliki, "adding that" the legal and constitutional issues in Iraq are secondary and not valuable in front of deals and political settlements.

It is now nominally 11 am Central Daylight Time for Chicago, Illinois.

 

It is now nominally 7 pm Baghdad time.

 

Twentynine (29) more hours to go - I am on the edge of my seat to see what happens at 00:00:01 Sunday, July 1 Baghdad time when these Parliamentarians (and hopefully Ole Nouri al-Maliki, too) lose their immunity!!!

 

Maybe all the indictments are thoroughly prepared, the internal to Iraq and INTERNATIONAL service is prepared, AND the planning and resourcing is entirely in place!!!

 

Haider al-Abadi likely doesn't need to be involved if EVERYTHING is in motion now!!! There have been news articles for months that there is a major move to address corruption at various levels, including the top, in Iraq that Haider al-Abadi has been pushing. If these indictments are served, I suspect that will be a major boost for Haider al-Abadi in the eyes of the Iraqis keen on removing corruption in Iraq.

 

Nominally 4 pm Central Daylight Time for Chicago, Illinois tomorrow, Saturday, June 30 is when the batch of news releases from Baghdad will be released nominally the very beginning of Sunday, July 1 and may be worth logging in tomorrow night (US time) sometime to see if there are any ground breaking news articles posting here. Likely Sunday, July 1 bright and early for sure.

 

THANK YOU to all the Iraqi News Posters who post the Iraqi News Articles here night and day - day in and day out!!!
