The coordination said in a statement that “Nass” received a copy of it (March 22, 2022), that it “held a meeting to discuss the political situation in the country, and the conferees stressed the importance of preserving the constitutional timings.”  

  

 He explained, "It is not in the framework's adoption of the issue of re-election, and it welcomes any national initiative to resolve the crisis and end the state of political blockage."  

  

He continued, "He believes in the participation of all those who wish to bear the responsibility of construction and reform in the next stage and not excluding any party," noting that "he still stresses on guaranteeing the right of the largest social component and announcing the formation of the largest bloc, which is the first constitutional right, stressing the democratic path and the non-exclusion of power and exclusion others."  

  

The coordination stressed, "the importance of expediting the formation of the government to develop its service map and meet the needs of citizens."

SULAIMANI — The tripartite alliance, the coalition between the Sadrist Movement, the Sunni Muslim Siyada Coalition and the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP), announced during a press conference their candidates for the president of the republic and the prime minister and the formation of a new alliance.

The leader of the Sadrist fraction in the Iraqi Parliament, Hassan al-Azari, stated the alliance’s candidate for president of the republic is KDP member Rebar Ahmed, who is currently the Kurdistan Regional Government’s (KRG) Minister of Interior.

Azari announced the alliance’s candidate for prime minister is Jaafar al-Sadr, Iraq’s Ambassador to the United Kingdom.

The fraction leader stated the coalition known as the "Save the Homeland Alliance” is a new alliance between the Sadrist bloc, the al-Siyada Coalition and the KDP.

Azari stated the new coalition is open to all sides regardless of belief and sectarian affiliation.

He stressed the formation of a national majority government. The leader of the Sadrist Movement, Shia cleric Muqtada al-Sadr, called for a "national majority government,” "neither eastern nor western,” in a frequently quoted Twitter post after his party scored the largest victory in the October elections in 2021.

Jaafar al-Sadr, the Tripartite Alliance’s candidate for prime minister, is the son of prominent Shia cleric Muhammad Baqir al-Sadr, who was executed by Saddam Hussein in 1980, and the brother-in-law and cousin of Muqtada al-Sadr.

The Iraqi Parliament is scheduled to host a session to elect the president of the republic on March 23.

ERBIL, Kurdistan Region - The alliance between the Sadrist bloc, the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP), and the Sunni Sovereignty Alliance on Wednesday announced their nominations of the KDP’s Reber Ahmed for the Iraqi presidency and the Sadrist Mohammad Jaafar al-Sadr for the position of Iraq’s prime minister, according to state media.

The Iraqi parliament is set to elect a president on Saturday, over six weeks after it postponed its session to vote in a candidate for the position in February. KDP’s Ahmed is competing against the country’s current president, the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK)’s Barham Salih, who is running for a second term.

Jaafar, son of the revered Shiite leader Sayeed Mohammad Baqir al-Sadr, worked at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for some time, and was elected as a member of parliament in 2010 with the State of Law, led by Nouri al-Maliki, whereupon he resigned a few months later. He is currently Iraq's ambassador to the United Kingdom.

Following the announcement, Shiite cleric and leader of the Sadrist bloc Muqtada al-Sadr, released a statement congratulating the Iraqi people for the nomination of both candidates, calling it a “unique and important achievement for saving the homeland.”

A high-level KDP delegation arrived in Baghdad earlier on Wednesday to discuss the issue of the presidency with the Iraqi political parties, a KDP official told Rudaw. Headed by Fazel Mirani, the secretary of the KDP political bureau, the delegation were scheduled to meet with the Iraqi parties to discuss the KDP’s candidate for the presidency, Rebar Ahmed, while also trying to secure the legal quorum. 

The Coordination Framework, a pro-Iran Shiite parliamentary faction consisting of over 100 MPs, have expressed their intention to boycott the session, as they persist in attempts to form a government based on political consensus.

Ahmed visited Baghdad on Tuesday to meet with Iraqi parties and blocs, including the Coordination Framework, where he discussed his four-year plan if he is to be elected as the next president of the republic, a KDP MP told Rudaw on Tuesday.

According to the constitution, the president of Iraq shall be elected by the parliament by a two-thirds majority of the number of its members.

Jamal Kochar, a Kurdistan Islamic Union (KIU) MP, confirmed to Rudaw on Wednesday that his bloc will be attending Saturday’s session, as it is their duty as MPs to be there. However, Kochar believes that it is unlikely that the new president will be elected on Saturday, as he doubts that the legal quorum will be reached.

“If none of the candidates receive the required majority vote then the two candidates who received the highest number of votes shall compete and the one who receives the majority of votes in the second election shall be declared President,” the constitution specifies.

The idea of a consensus government has been repeatedly opposed by the Sadrist bloc, who are pushing for the formation of a majority government along with their allies, the KDP, and the Sunni Sovereignty Alliance.

Iraq held an early election on October 10. The vote was called in response to mass protests in the country beginning in October 2019, caused by widespread dissatisfaction with Iraq’s politicians and endemic corruption in the country.
