(News analysis) Iraq: The house is on fire... The dispute over a new foundation

The atmosphere of “framework sanctions” dominates the coalition of the political majority

Friday - 17 Rajab 1443 AH - 18 February 2022 AD Issue No. [15788]

 

 

Baghdad: «Asharq Al-Awsat»

Waiting for the strikes to reach their extent and trying to adapt to their effects, the leader of the "Sadr movement" Muqtada al-Sadr is moving cautiously within the Iraqi political arena in front of his rivals within the "coordination framework." Since the exclusion of Hoshyar Zebari from the race to run for president, and the Federal Court's ruling that the "Kurdish Oil Law is unconstitutional", al-Sadr seemed to be trying to lure his opponents to throw their papers, but the impasse now affects the core of the political process that has existed since 2003.
The strategy of the "coordinating framework" depends on "a warning" » Al-Sadr to the danger of doing one of the two things: to form a government independently of Nuri al-Maliki and others, or even to go to the opposition. With this warning, the "framework" is trying to exploit the punitive climate created by recent court rulings.
Over the course of two days, leaders in the "framework" discussed what will happen in the coming days, and they are, in general, based exclusively on the expectation of al-Sadr's position on this "punitive" climate, that the project of the national majority "has unsustainable costs", in return; Al-Sadr is maneuvering as a central point in this conflict with fewer chances of losing, compared to the others. In fact, directing strikes and attempts to adapt and absorb them do not constitute a clear political path to resolving the conflict between political actors. Both methods will not be sufficient with the entry of the judiciary into a player in the political scene, so the Iraqi political actors have begun to realize that they are compelled to enter into a new establishment of the Iraqi political system, even with painful taxes.
The monopoly of this foundational moment is now being contested, most likely; Al-Sadr has the realistic tools to set a new path with his Kurdish and Sunni allies, and even the tireless attempts made by the “coordinating framework” to carry out the same historical function, and between them the political process loses all its previous functions based on an intertwined system of collusion.
But with regard to the Triple Majority Alliance, the debate, still affected by the political shock of it, revolves around the political roles to seize the new moment. While the prevailing belief was that al-Sadr would abandon his Kurdish ally, Masoud Barzani, the indications from al-Hananah indicate that he is contingent on the cohesion of the alliance with partnership on building a clear path to resolving differences, even those related to oil, gas and the budget.
Barzani is facing a complex political moment after losing the candidacy of Zebari, and the region's oil operations have been subjected to any sweeping blow by the judiciary, between receiving "self-proof" signals from the "PUK" and his bet on al-Sadr's alliance. The problem here depends on Barzani's priorities, which al-Sadr is trying to rearrange.
There are taxes that Erbil must pay even with the tripartite majority coalition. The political path that restructures the accumulated voids within the federal system imposes a different context; And even a different region of Kurdistan, and because this path is inevitably imposed, the “Democratic Party” expects the “Sadr Movement” to engage with a lesser degree of pain.
In the space of the political majority, suspicion enters the Sunni political environment. The hammering of iron on iron between Baghdad and Erbil made the allied Sunni powers contemplate if it was one of the next blows to their side. As for political groups that have just begun to recover at the level of electoral participation, in addition to their ability to forge a coalition of interests, at the very least, they do not seem ready for the scenario of “punishment” for going through the majority experience with al-Sadr.
In the past two weeks, the Sunni party offices seemed to avoid staying in the burning house, waiting for the largest Shiite ally to evacuate the allies. The level of Sunni political participation has temporarily decreased in the debates mainly related to the formation of the “larger government”; While the daily maneuvers dealing with the event begin, it is preoccupied with the idea that Iran will never allow the post-Saddam Hussein deal to be zeroed and to start over, at the whim of the three winners of last October's elections

Al-Sadr collides with Iranian opposition to the "triple alliance"

Iraqi parties are “testing” a new foundation for the political system

Friday - 17 Rajab 1443 AH - 18 February 2022 AD Issue No. [15788]

 

 

Baghdad: «Asharq Al-Awsat»

The leader of the Sadrist movement, Muqtada al-Sadr, is trying to confront the "Iranian opposition" to the project of the political majority by formulating a new political path with his allies, which may cost him to change the rules of the political system that has been in place since 2003.

Al-Sadr is moving cautiously in the arena in front of his rivals in the coordinating framework. Since the exclusion of Hoshyar Zebari from the presidential race, and the Federal Court's decision that the Kurdish Oil Law is unconstitutional, it seemed that al-Sadr is trying to lure his opponents to throw their papers, but the impasse now affects the core of the political process.

The strategy of the coordination framework relies on “warning” al-Sadr of the danger of doing one of two things: forming a government without Nuri al-Maliki and others, or even going to the opposition. With this warning, the framework attempts to exploit the punitive climate created by recent court rulings.

On the other hand, discussion is taking place between the parties to the majority coalition, regarding the political roles to seize a new founding moment, and while the prevailing belief was that Al-Sadr would abandon his Kurdish ally, Massoud Barzani, the indications are that he is contingent upon the cohesion of the alliance with partnership on building a clear path in resolving differences.

Barzani is facing a complex political moment after losing Zebari's nomination, and the region's oil operations have been dealt a crushing blow by drawing the judiciary, between receiving "self-proof" signals from the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan, and his bet on the Sadr alliance. The problem here depends on Barzani's priorities, which al-Sadr is trying to rearrange.

In the space of the political majority, the state of doubt enters the Sunni environment. The hammering of iron on iron between Baghdad and Erbil made the allied Sunni powers contemplate if it was one of the next blows to their side.

Shafaq News/ The Kurdish leader, Masoud Barzani, on Thursday discussed over a phone call with the leader of the Sadrist movement, Muqtada al-Sadr, the steps the trilateral alliance shall take to expedite the formation of the Iraqi central government.

According to a joint statement issued by the two leaders, a meeting might bring together the leaders of the alliance's member parties in the near future. 

The bloc of the firebrand Shiite cleric, already the biggest in the October 10 election, has been mobilizing impetus behind a "National Majority Government", challenging the status quo "consensus governments", the forces of the Shiite Coordination Framework have been lobbying for.

al-Sadr has said he will ally himself with whoever puts Iraq's national interests first. That is an indication that he may exclude some Iran-backed Shiite blocs in favor of parties with cross-sectarian support.

The Sadrist movement, the Sunni al-Siyada alliance, and the Kurdistan Democratic Party joined hands in what became known later as the trilateral alliance.

Deputy for Law: Things have come to an end and a new scenario regarding the political blockage

• Time: 02/18/2022 16:21:11

{Local: Al Furat News} A deputy from the State of Law coalition revealed a "new scenario" regarding the state of political impasse.

Muhammad Al-Sihoud told {Euphrates News}: "Political matters have reached their end, as it is not possible to hold a session to elect the president of the republic without the presence of 220 deputies."

And he said, "No political party and its allies can achieve the quorum of the session, and now they need to start new dialogues or a new scenario."

Chihod stressed, "The best solutions are the coalition of Shiite and Kurdish components, similar to the coalition of the Sunni component, and the formation of the coordination framework and the Sadrist movement for a larger parliamentary bloc, and for the Democratic Party and the National Union to choose the president of the republic according to previous political agreements and norms."

It is noteworthy that the House of Representatives failed to hold a session on February 7, which was dedicated to electing the President of the Republic, in which 25 candidates were scheduled to compete for the position, but the number rose to 60 candidates after reopening the nomination window by the Presidency of the House of Representatives.

The country has been experiencing a political crisis since early parliamentary elections were held last October, due to differences between the political forces that won parliamentary seats, regarding the next prime minister and how to form the next government, and differences prevail among the Kurds over the presidential candidate.

The leader of the Sadrist movement, Muqtada al-Sadr, seeks to form a "national majority government" by excluding some forces from it, while the rest of the Shiite forces within the "coordinating framework" demand a consensual government in which all political forces in Parliament participate, similar to previous sessions, which al-Sadr strongly rejects. .

Al-Hamami claimed that "this party violates the Iraqi constitution and Iraqi laws, especially since it is currently refusing to recognize and implement the Federal Court's decision regarding the export of Iraqi oil."

For his part, the representative of State of Law, Thaer fearful told Shafak News Agency, "Any criticism of any political alliance reveals a contradiction within any component, given that the alliances were and still are the same.

Regarding efforts to renegotiate and reunite the Shiite house again, he said, "As a representative of the state of law and one of the dignitaries of the province of Babylon, I had discussed with the Deputy Speaker of Parliament Hakim al-Zamili about the cooling of the relationship between the coordination framework and the Sadrist bloc, and the results of the talks were positive."

He added, "In the same context and in coordination with a number of sheikhs and dignitaries from a number of southern and central Euphrates governorates, the leader of the Sadrist movement was contacted to discuss solutions to rearranging the Shiite house, and it is hoped that the same sheikhs who have wide popular weight will try again to put forward a new initiative to overcome the dispute between the poles." Shiites, because al-Sadr has all the respect for the tribal sheikhs, and we hope that we will reflect this positively on the course of political matters in the future."

The dispute is raging between the Sadrist bloc and the forces of the coordination framework, especially with the State of Law coalition and its leader, Nuri al-Maliki, as internal and regional mediations have failed to restore relations between the parties because of al-Sadr's insistence on excluding al-Maliki from the political process.

Al-Sadr informs Iran and the leaders of the framework: either a government without al-Maliki or the opposition

 

 2022-02-20 05:29

 

Shafaq News/ A leader in the Sadrist movement revealed today, Sunday, that the leader of the movement, Muqtada al-Sadr, delivered a message to Iran and the leaders of the coordination framework, regarding the formation of the next Iraqi government.

The leader, who asked not to be named, told Shafak News Agency, "Al-Sadr sent a message to the Islamic Republic of Iran and the leaders of the coordination framework, that the decision to prevent the leader of the State of Law coalition, Nuri al-Maliki, from participating in the new government, does not retreat from it, whatever pressures and threats against him."

And he indicated that "Al-Sadr confirmed in his message that the Sadrist bloc is ready to go to the opposition, not to participate in a government that brings together the Sadrist movement with Maliki," explaining that "at the same time, Iran and the framework do not want Al-Sadr to go to the opposition, they realize that this matter will not make the government age." The new one lasts more than one year, which is why they want a consensual government that brings the current and the framework together,” as he put it.

The dispute is intensifying between the Sadrist bloc and the forces of the coordination framework, especially with the State of Law coalition and its leader, Nuri al-Maliki, as internal and regional mediations have failed to restore relations between the parties due to al-Sadr's insistence on excluding al-Maliki from the political process.

Well Tater, HELL doesn’t have a waiting list, in fact if I understand correctly there’s an Express Lane for A-holes such as yourself.
