12/21/2019 23:35
 
 
The Kurdistan Democratic Party announced its position regarding the nomination of the current Minister of Higher Education and Scientific Research Qusay al-Suhail and Muhammad Tawfiq Allawi as prime minister.

"The Democratic Party with the choice of any character that satisfies the masses and the winning blocs, and we have no problem with the nomination of Al-Suhail or Allawi to head the next government," said Subhi al-Mandalawi, a member of the party, for a program "special coverage" broadcast by the Al-Furat satellite channel tonight. He held the Shiite parties "responsible for choosing the personality of the prime minister and our position with whomever you choose," noting that "early elections are the best solution at this stage."

Al-Mandalawi pointed out that "all political parties and angry people put pressure on the President of the Republic and his position is very difficult." He pointed out that "it is natural that there will be pressures on the President of the Republic, as he is responsible and today he is facing the boiling position of the street, the situation of Iraq and the crisis, and he must prove to everyone that he is the protector of Iraq and the constitution." And Mandalawi indicated that "in the event that a special agreement was reached with the main blocs on a certain personality, the President of the Republic may decide the matter," adding "but changing the three presidencies means destroying the political system and the situation cannot bear the satisfaction of all parties."

He added, "Our position with the early elections and we have no problem; but we object to the multiple constituencies, it is not clear and Article 15 takes away our rights in the areas of Article 140 {disputed areas}", adding that "if the political blocs can resolve their matter with this article, we will have a position at that time."  "It is difficult to agree on the personality of the prime minister tomorrow and the time will be extended again," he concluded.

He said, "President Barham Saleh told me that naming the candidate for prime minister will not contradict the opinion of the people and the authority," noting that "the resigned prime minister, Adel Abdul-Mahdi, offered him a position a few weeks ago and rejected it."

He added, "If I became prime minister, my first priority would be to ask the demonstrators to continue to demonstrate until their demands are implemented, in the forefront of which is to eliminate unemployment, and I will be able to protect them and I will mobilize all security efforts."

He went on to say, "The country needs a renaissance in the field of work and housing, and I will support training courses that absorb unemployment."

He stressed, "Those who support me, a majority of 170 representatives, represent different blocs, and there are parties who threaten those who nominated me."

Barham Saleh threatens to resign with the increasing pressure of Iranian agents to form a government of their own

 

- One Hour Passed
 
%D8%A8%D8%B1%D9%87%D9%85-%D8%B5%D8%A7%D9


BAGHDAD - The Iraqi president waved his resignation after pressure on him from pro-Iranian forces in parliament to assign its candidate Qusay al-Suhail to head the next government.

A source in the President’s office, who asked not to be named because of the sensitivity of the issue, added that this waving is due to “very great pressure exerted on him by the building (coalition) axis and who is behind it”, referring to the leader of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards, Qassem Soleimani, who has been in Baghdad for weeks.

The source pointed out that those forces are pushing to assign its candidate Qusay al-Suhail to form the next government.

The "construction" coalition consists of Shiite political forces closely linked to Iran, led by the "Al-Fath" coalition led by Hadi al-Amiri (47 out of 329 seats in parliament), and the "State of Law" coalition led by former Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki (26 seats).

This alliance says it occupies 150 seats in Parliament and is the largest bloc in Parliament, amid controversy in this regard that has not been resolved so far.

On the other hand, Hassan Al-Kaabi, First Deputy Speaker of Parliament, said in a press statement that "any candidate that does not represent the will of the people will not be acceptable even if he is submitted by all the blocs in the House of Representatives, and that public satisfaction is the basis for naming the next Prime Minister."

Al-Suhail does not have the support of the Iraqi demonstrators, as well as the main political forces in the country led by the "Saeron" coalition supported by the leader of the Sadrist movement, Muqtada al-Sadr, and the "Victory" coalition led by former Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi, as well as Sunni political forces, including the coalition led by former parliament speaker Osama Nujaifi.

Observers believe that the attempt of pro-Iranian parties to impose Qusay al-Suhail to take over as prime minister, succeeding Abdul-Mahdi, foreshadows a massive popular escalation.

The Iraqi president continues to hold intensive discussions with political forces, in order to get out of the upcoming government candidate's crisis, confirming his rejection of the policy of dictations and imposing a controversial candidate to head the government in a "arm-twisting" manner.

Saleh has repeatedly stressed that the candidate for prime minister must accept the Iraqi people and fulfill their aspirations and hopes for a free and dignified life and within the constitutional times and contexts.

Despite the resignation of the government of Abdul-Mahdi, which was one of the most important demands of the protesters, but the demonstrations are still continuing to demand the departure of the political elite that has ruled the country since 2003.

And sparked the protests in Iraq last October, with the departure of demonstrators in various parts of the country to demand a change of government and protest against the deteriorating economic and political conditions, especially in light of the spread of corruption and Iranian interference in the internal affairs of the country.
