With Abdul-Mahdi offering to resign, what’s next for Iraq?

Atlantic Council experts react to the announcement of the Iraqi Prime Minister Adil Abdul-Mahdi resigning.

https://atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/menasource/with-abdul-mahdi-offering-to-resign-whats-next-for-iraq/?utm_content=buffer413d9&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_campaign=buffer

 

Abbas Kadhim is the Director of the Iraq Initiative at the Atlantic Council.

“In his address to the Iraqi people on October 31, President Barham Salih referred to Prime Minister Adil Abdul-Mahdi’s offer to resign if the two major parliamentary blocs (Sairoon and Fatah) that made a deal to nominate him for the post can agree on a replacement. Abdul-Mahdi was responding to a letter from Muqtada al-Sadr who had asked him on October 28 to “go to the Parliament and announce an early elections under UN supervision and soon.” Abdul-Mahdi’s response on the following day put the ball in the court of the political parties that nominated and confirmed him. These same political parties did not show true support for Abdul-Mahdi’s program of governance and instead continued to blackmail his ministers for corrupt favors.

President Salih seems to have given everyone a reasonable way out. If his plan is accepted, the protesters can go home having accomplished what they demanded, albeit not immediately, Abdul-Mahdi will avoid a vote of no-confidence, and Iraq will be saved from an unprecedented constitutional stalemate. Most importantly, there will be hope for significant reforms sponsored by the president and supported by a mandate from the protesters if the political elite honor their end of the deal. Iraq has great potential but is short on statesmen who can lead the country to reach that potential.”

C. Anthony Pfaff is a Nonresident Senior Fellow at the Atlantic Council.

“The resignation of Iraqi Prime Minister (PM) Adil Abdul-Mahdi should come as no surprise, but it should also come with a muted sense of relief. Mahdi’s security forces killed over a hundred protestors and wounded countless others. It is very difficult to come back from crossing that line and maintain the legitimacy required to make the reforms needed to address the protestors’ demands. However, that sense of relief should be muted as it is not clear who can take his place and do any better. The next Iraqi PM needs to direct government funds away from corrupt and inefficient agencies and towards recovery and reconstruction. He needs to invest in major infrastructure improvements, especially energy and transportation, so the economy can grow. Even trickier, he needs to promote development of a private sector without destabilizing the state-owned institutions that are Iraq’s biggest employers. While doing all this, he also needs to avoid the appearance of sectarian loyalties, and especially not appear under the influence of foreign powers, especially Iran and the United States.

None of that is going to be easy. Addressing any of those concerns attacks entrenched interests resulting in more protests. Having said that, the new Iraqi PM is not without resources. The Iraqi public is ready for change. Moreover, as these latest protests have demonstrated, this public is fed-up with sectarian politics and are looking for a leader who can unite them. If he can unite this public sentiment to push through the variety of measures described above, Iraq could finally be on a road to real recovery. The international community can help, but Iraq needs to demonstrate this commitment to reform first. While a real nationalist could emerge, the Iraqi parliament does not have a history of picking the best qualified candidate, but rather the least threatening to their interests. If they cannot do better this time, it will be business as usual and given the enduring nature of these protests, it is not clear how much longer that can go on.”

Thomas S. Warrickis a Nonresident Senior Fellow at the Atlantic Council.

“Today, Iraqi Prime Minister Adel Abd al-Mahdi offered to resign as Prime Minister of Iraq to give Iraq’s other political parties a chance to see if they can agree who should replace him. Because it takes an absolute majority in the Iraqi parliament to name a new Prime Minister, it’s not at all clear that they can.

Abd al-Mahdi is one of the most experienced and skilled Iraqi political leaders of his generation. There are no obvious successors acceptable to the Iraqi people. If his successor also has to be acceptable to the United States and Iran—a factor that held up agreement over previous prime ministers—the question who will succeed Abd al-Mahdi becomes ten times more difficult.

The current crisis started in September with popular demonstrations sparked by the dismissal of Lt. Gen. Abd al-Wahab al-Saadi, a popular general who led the fight against the Islamic State (ISIS). Some Iraqi security services over-reacted with violence against protesters. This helped transform popular discontent into a social force—but one that does not fit into the current sectarian and ethnic-based political parties that dominate the Council of Representatives, Iraq’s parliament.

Abd al-Mahdi suggested earlier this week that two key Iraqis should try to agree on his successor. Muqtada al-Sadr, known in Washington for fiery anti-Americanism during the 2003-2011 occupation, is now regarded as leading a movement that is both anti-corruption and anti-Iran. Though not in parliament himself, he has what many regard as the largest number of parliamentary supporters in Iraq’s fractionated parliament. Hadi al-Amiri, former head of the Badr Organization, a group funded for years by the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps-Qods Force, leads the second-largest bloc in the Council of Representatives. Both of these groups have significant opposition. Even if these two blocs got together, it’s hard to see whether they could form a lasting government, or whether it could achieve the reforms Iraqis have demanded.

It’s increasingly clear that Iraqis need to consider serious constitutional reforms. Iraq’s present constitution, adopted in 2005, was drafted by Iraqis with some American and international help that, to put it charitably, could have been much better. The present system intentionally gives a lot of power to the sectarian and ethnic-based parties recognized by the United States and Iran after Saddam Hussein’s overthrow. It’s a recipe for gridlock and an inability to legislate or to govern. Serious reform of the current system, which many Iraqis recognize is both ineffective and corrupt, is almost impossible under the current constitution. Abd al-Mahdi has rightly insisted that whatever happens should be done under the current constitution. A challenge to the principle of constitutional government would not be in the interest of Iraqis, the West, nor even Iran. While one group of Iraqis needs to solve the immediate problem of finding a prime minister broadly acceptable to Iraqis—which, ironically, could be Abd al-Mahdi himself—other Iraqis should consider constitutional reform if constitutional government in Iraq is to be saved.”

Dozens of people were injured on Friday night, according to medical sources told Agence France-Presse, during clashes on the bridge of the Republic, which connects Tahrir Green Zone, and the bridge parallel to him.
In the face of the increasing wave of protests, day after day, President Barham Saleh promised to hold early parliamentary elections under a new electoral law.

The Iraqi president pointed out that the new electoral law is expected to be presented to parliament "next week."

The House of Representatives announced that it is in an "open session", although it has so far failed to hold a hearing for the prime minister, the first on his agenda. Prime Minister Adel Abdul Mahdi said he was ready to resign if he found an alternative.

Shafaq News / Deputy Chairman of the Committee on Foreign Relations Zafer al-Ani, on Saturday, that the slogans of the demonstrators confirmed the rejection of the Iranian guardianship approach.

"The voices of the demonstrators against Iranian interference in the Iraqi affairs came in a sincere expression of the Iraqi rejection of the guardianship approach and the policy of dictates by Tehran towards Iraq," Ani said in a statement received by Shafaq News.

"We have pointed out from an early stage that the arrogance policy of the rulers of Iran will lead our country to tear and the people lose their confidence in a regime that wants to control its abilities by external hands seeking to harness the fate of our country as part of its external conflicts," he said. Aggressive approach. "

"The statements of Iranian officials, starting with their leader, who accuse the opponents of various false accusations, represent a gross and provocative intervention and a grave injury to the dignity of every Iraqi who cherishes his country and seeks independence and stability," he said. "Iranian decision-makers should be aware of this message and act in accordance with the desire of the two neighboring countries for a close relationship based on mutual respect and common interests."

The events were centered on two bridges linking Tahrir to the western bank of the Tigris

Police fired tear gas at protesters

BAGHDAD: Iraqi security forces clashed with anti-government protesters in the early hours of Saturday near the capital’s Tahrir Square, leaving one demonstrator dead and dozens more wounded, medical sources said.
Baghdad’s overnight violence was centered on two bridges linking Tahrir to the western bank of the Tigris, where most government buildings and foreign embassies including the US and Iranian missions are located.
Riot police deployed along the bridges fired tear gas to keep back protesters, who have dug in to their positions with their own barricade.
The protests have evolved since October 1 from rage over corruption and unemployment into a wholesale condemnation of political and religious class and demands for “the downfall of the regime.”
Protesters have occupied Tahrir square for more than a week, apparently unimpressed by the government’s proposals, including of early elections and a new premier.
“We’ve been having elections for 16 years, and we’ve gotten nothing,” said Haydar, 30, a protester in Tahrir.
Another activist, Mohammad, 22, said the demonstrators should not accept such “fake reforms.”
“People are very aware of what’s happening: we’ve gotten to an important phase and can’t lose it all now,” he added.
Since October 1, more than 250 people have been killed and thousands more wounded in the rallies.
The latest official toll was provided on Wednesday, but medical and security sources said at least eight demonstrators have been killed since.
Seven of them died around Tahrir, where clashes between riot police and security forces have escalated.
The eighth victim was killed by the security guards of a local politician in the southern city of Nasiriyah.
Rights group Amnesty International slammed Iraqi forces this week for using two types of military-grade tear gas canisters that have pierced protesters’ skulls and lungs.

Deputy: The countdown started

Iqbal did not clarify what he meant, but coincided with the development of political events.
Saleh also announced that next week will see the introduction of a new electoral law, and said it would be "more just", and indicated that he would agree to hold early elections if the new law is ratified.
It is noteworthy that Iraq is witnessing demonstrations and popular protests, the largest since 2003 against corruption and political quotas and the deterioration of services and public conditions in the country.
At least 250 martyrs have been killed and more than 10,000 injured since the protests began last October.

A member of the House of Representatives, Zafer al-Ani, said on Saturday that the slogans of demonstrators against what he described as "Iranian interference" in Iraq is "a sincere expression of the conscience of Iraqis," saying Provocative. "

Al-Ani said in a statement received by Alsumaria News that "the voices of the demonstrators against Iranian interference in the Iraqi affairs came as a sincere expression of the Iraqi rejection of the guardianship approach and the policy of dictates by Tehran towards Iraq ."
 
 

Al-Ani added: "We have pointed out from an early date that the supremacy of the rulers of Iran will lead our country to tear and the people lose their confidence in a regime that wants to control its capabilities. The masses reject this aggressive approach. "

He continued, "The statements of Iranian officials starting with the Supreme Leader of the Revolution in Iran Ali KhameneiIn which they accuse the opponents of various false accusations, they represent a flagrant and provocative intervention and a grave injury to the dignity of every Iraqi who cherishes his country and seeks independence and stability. These resounding voices are only a natural reaction to the hostile Iranian policies towards the Iraqi people, and Iranian decision makers should be aware of this message and act. This is in line with the desire of the two neighboring countries for a close relationship based on mutual respect and common interests. "
