Does the messenger of the frame to tenderness decode the political blockage in Iraq?

 

 2022-03-31 12:55

 

 

Shafaq News/ Under the title "The only constant in politics is the variable", the political forces are clinging to the "politics variable" to get out of the blockage that the country has entered since the legislative elections were held on October 10, but this, according to the Sadrists' perspective, does not mean consensus as he wants frameworks, but rather by forming a "majority" government.

More than five months have passed since the holding of the Iraqi legislative elections, and nothing but the election of a speaker to the parliament has been achieved from the constitutional entitlements that follow after each poll, while the political understandings and discussions about choosing the presidents of the republic and government are still in an unprecedented state of obstruction.

 

frame messenger

A source in the coordination framework revealed to Shafaq News Agency, about efforts to send a delegate from the framework, to Al-Hananah (Al-Sadr's residence) in Najaf, to present an initiative to resolve political differences and end the blockage that dominates the scene, after the framework forces set the general lines for proposals for solutions It can be included later, within the initiative to be sent to Al-Sadr.

The agency learned that the framework initiative includes proposals for solutions, including "the coordination framework waiver of its ministerial entitlements in the next government, in exchange for the selection of a consensual prime minister."

 

chest conditions

Al-Asadi told Shafaq News Agency: "We previously sat with the leaders of the coordination framework, and presented them with a paper containing 14 conditions that are in the interest of Iraq, but we did not see them except for procrastination and lack of commitment," adding, "It seems that most of the points presented by the movement, were rejected or disputed over the frame.

He added, "Among these conditions was any person around whom there were suspicions of corruption or had corruption files, the head of the party should immediately disavow him and submit him to the judiciary, as well as open all corruption files in the country from 2003 until now, and no one has immunity before the judiciary, in addition To the issue of the armed factions, confining arms to the state, handing over all official and unofficial border crossings to the state, handing over all state properties controlled by personalities and parties to the state, activating the law (from where did you get this), non-subordination and non-referral to any other state And dealing with countries is through official outlets, and therefore all the points presented aim to build a strong state in which the Iraqi citizen can enjoy."

 

political blockage

And about the possibility of resolving the dispute, Al-Asadi concluded, by saying: “Until this moment, the political blockage dominates the scene, but there is no constant in politics, and this does not mean reversing the formation of a government (a national majority, neither eastern nor western). We remain under the dome of Parliament, exercising our oversight and legislative role, and possessing an absolute majority."

He pointed out that "the leader of the Sadrist movement, when he met the leaders of the coordination framework at the house of the leader of the Al-Fateh Alliance, Hadi Al-Amiri, presented to them his project in forming a government of the national majority without targeting or exclusion, and that the goal is to correct the course of the political process, and that whoever comes to this government is in accordance with conditions and controls, and whoever refuses goes to the opposition." Al-Sadr also raised the possibility of him going to the opposition if they refused to form a majority government, and then all the framework forces rejected this thing.

 

With regard to the tripartite alliance (Al-Sadr, Sovereignty, and Democratic), Al-Asadi said that "it is still a solid and stable alliance. However, Al-Sadr gave the partners the green light and lifted restrictions, and they are free to go to form the government with the framework according to his program, and if he succeeds in achieving a majority, the bloc will be Al-Sadriyah is the first to attend the parliament session to complete the quorum for naming the President of the Republic, and we will not be a disabled third.

He added, "As for the failure of the framework and its allies, the Sadrist bloc will continue to form the government as it was around the corner from that, in addition to being the most parliamentary bloc and the largest in its alliances."

He continued, "After Al-Sadr's tweet, there are questions that ask themselves about the forces that were accusing the movement and its partners of treason. How will you negotiate with them when yesterday they were classified under the category (treason and subordination to foreign agendas?

 

In addition, the former deputy of the Democratic Party, Abdul Salam al-Barwari, confirmed to Shafaq News that he "considers that al-Sadr's tweet was a challenge to the coordination framework."

He explained, "In my own opinion, Al-Sadr is defying the framework and with high confidence that he was able to gather the largest national gathering, and therefore his mouthpiece. Please, if you can form a government instead of disrupting political work."

He added, "The tweet revealed the survival of the tripartite alliance, because the Sadrist movement presented a vision that made the democracy and sovereignty enter into a tripartite alliance with it because of their conviction in its government programme."

Simultaneously, the coordination framework revealed some details of a political initiative that it intends to present to the Sadrist movement.

A source in the framework told Shafak News Agency, that the initiative includes the principle of the extended majority, as it includes choosing a prime minister with one title (the framework and the current), that is, the candidate of the parliamentary bloc that is the most numerous, and that they have the role of (the framework and the current) in bringing the views between the two parties to the selection presidential candidate.

He added that "the initiative also includes the non-participation of the coordinating framework in the executive authority, taking into account its assessments regarding the cabinet, where the Shiites' share of the ministries will be (12 ministries), giving up all of them to the Sadrist movement."

With regard to the 12 parliamentary committees, its leadership and representation is for the coordination framework and its allies, so that it can take the role of the opposition and monitor the government.

SULAIMANI — The Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP) and the al-Siyada Coalition announced on Friday (April 1) they are committed to their alliance with the Sadrist Movement.

Sadr announced on Thursday he would give the Coordination Framework, the Sadrist Movement’s main rival among Shia parties in the Iraqi parliament, 40 days to form a new government without the participation of Sadr’s bloc. 

He asked members of the Sadrist Movement to "not intervene positively or negatively” in forming the new government during this 40-day period. 

The Sadrist Movement formed the Saving the Homeland alliance on March 23 with the KDP and the Siyada Coalition and announced on Thursday the KDP and Siyada were free to stay with the bloc or form new alliances. 

Both parties said on Friday a strong government in Iraq would not be formed without the Sadrist Movement and assured their firm commitment to the Saving the Homeland alliance, which they referred to as "hope for Iraqis.”

The KDP and Siyada stated they appreciate Sadr’s attempts to expedite the forming of a new government and reiterated they are committed to the alliance. 

They also announced constructive dialogue without foreign interference should take place among the Shia parties in the interest of the country’s stability and peace. 

Sadr refused a request from the Coordination Framework to reach a consensus on forming the Iraqi government on Wednesday, when the Iraqi parliament was supposed to hold a session to elect the president of the republic. 

The Coordination Framework, one of the two largest Shia blocs in parliament, is a pro-Iran coalition of Shia parties composed of the Fatah Alliance, the State of Law Coalition, the Hikma Party and the Nasr Alliance.

ERBIL, Kurdistan Region – The Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP) along with the Sunni Sovereignty Alliance expressed their desire to stick alongside the Sadrist bloc on Friday, amid months of political turmoil as Iraq's parliamentary factions have thrice failed to elect a new president and pave the way for government formation.

The two components said that they "value the position" of prominent Shiite cleric and leader of the Sadrist Movement Muqtada al-Sadr in "expediting the formation of a strong government that works to address the complex issues facing the Iraqi people" in a joint statement, while confirming their adherence to the partnership with the Sadrist bloc.

Their statement further declared that "a strong government cannot be born without their partnership."

The tripartite alliance of the Sadrists, KDP, and the Sovereignty Alliance make up the recently-announced Save the Homeland Alliance, which won over 150 parliamentary seats in the October elections.

The alliance's nominees for president and prime minister are KDP's Reber Ahmed and Sadr's cousin Mohammed Jaafar al-Sadr respectively, but they have thus far failed on two occasions in obtaining the required quorum for a session to vote for Ahmed, who, once elected, can task Jaafar to form a government.

Sadr on Thursday announced that he is stepping back from the government formation process for a month, and giving his rivals in the contest to form Iraq's next government an "opportunity" to form a government without the participation of his bloc.

A pro-Iran Shiite alliance, the Coordination Framework, is the tripartite alliance's rival in the government formation process. They oppose the idea of a national majority government, instead wanting a government based on political consensus.

The Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK), backing incumbent Barham Salih for the presidency, has joined the Coordination Framework along with a host of other parties, repeatedly boycotting parliamentary sessions to elect Iraq's next president

From what I remember about al-Sadr, he is not a person you should piss off. Your tent might unexpectedly explode with you in it. You show them al-Sadr, just proclaim the new government the way you want it then really tick them off and revalue your currency.

The election of the President of the Republic requires a quorum in which the presence of representatives constitutes two-thirds of their number, that is, more than 220 deputies out of 329, which was not achieved due to the boycott of the coordination framework that represents prominent Shiite parties, such as the State of Law bloc and the Al-Fateh Alliance, the umbrella under which the loyalist popular mobilization factions fall under. for Iran.

Thru out this ordeal, I have always tried keep the Economics and Politics separate.

I've got a bad feeling about the future of Iraq and this investment, if Maliki and the Iranians regain/maintain dominate positions.

We all know what Maliki and his group achieved when they were steering the ship. Personal greed and corruption, In my opinion. 

As much as I hate to say it, I feel that the 7th century Religious Tribalism, Corrupt Politics and Corrupt Economics will prevent any progress in the direction that we have hoped and waited for. 

Hopefully I'm wrong, but I just don't see it progressing in a positive direction.

The CBI clearly didn't need all this drama to go from 1160 to 1450. 

 

Just sayin' .............

 

I feel a bit better now. Thank you for letting me vent my frustrations.

So does this mean they will dissolve parliament next week on the 6th? 
Another 40 days or 80 days nothing will change. 
It’s obvious by now their not really paying much attention to their constitution. 
Until Iraq can somehow get Iran out of their politics an country they will always have this type of stalemate. There’s just to many of them and that’s what stopping any kind forward process to Iraq. 
In my opinion dissolving parliament and calling for new elections won’t change anything because the same Iranians will vote just like they did last year…

'The opportunity is still great'

Al-Amiri: We will not give up forming the largest bloc.. Twisting arms and breaking wills does not serve Iraq

2022.04.01 - 17:31

 

Baghdad - people  

The head of the Al-Fateh Alliance Hadi al-Amiri said, on Friday, that the coordinating framework will not give up on forming the largest bloc, of which the Sadrist movement and some independents must be part.  

 

  

Al-Amiri added in a speech followed by “Nass” (1 April 2022), that “any manipulation will lead us to a political blockage, despite our emphasis on the necessity of understanding between the political forces to find a way out of the current crisis. The process has been built since 2003 on consensus, balance and partnership, and the recent elections were built an unjust law."  

He stressed that "we will not give up on forming the largest bloc of the framework, the Sadrist movement and the independents that guarantee the right of the Shiite majority and that nominate the prime minister after naming the president of the republic and go towards forming the government, a point a line head."  

Al-Amiri called for "forming the largest bloc and carrying out the task of defining the prime minister and understanding him among us as a larger bloc, and unless the required number is achieved in the Shiite opposition circle, I am the first ready to go towards the opposition - thus we will guarantee the opposition and the sufficient number of the opposition, as well as we will ensure consensus and the right of the Shiite majority is not lost." .  

He pointed out, "We were not greedy to participate and we were not going (for the cake) and the opposition has privileges as well, but the loyalists should provide opportunities for the opposition, and not keep them away from the parliamentary committees and not give them any oversight role, as this is an eradication of the opposition's role."  

He explained that "the opportunity is still great and exists, but attempts to twist arms and stubbornness and break wills will not serve Iraq, and the political leaders have the experience, experience and practice to find a way out for the country."  

Al-Amiri indicated that "the leader of the Sadrist movement proposed to us, during his visit to us in Baghdad at the end of December, his willingness to go to the opposition and the framework would go towards forming a government, but we refused and called him to understanding and agreement and ensuring a sufficient number of the opposition, even if we did not participate in the government."

'to treat obstruction'

The coordination framework responds to Al-Sadr's 'Atwa' with a 4-point statement

2022.04.01 - 22:54

 

Baghdad - people  

On Friday, the coordination framework issued a statement after the end of its meeting, which was held to find a way out of the current political impasse.  

 

  

The framework said in a statement received by “People” a copy of it (April 1, 2022), that “based on the legitimate, national and moral responsibility entrusted to it, the coordination framework is still ready for serious and constructive dialogue with all blocs and independents to get out of the state of political blockage, as the framework forces call on all loyalists.” To assume responsibility and not insist on the equation of breaking wills, which would complicate the scene without success, and the only one affected by it is the Iraqi people."  

He added that accordingly, the framework announces its vision to address the political blockage, which is based on several foundations that we list below. The framework will present its details in its dialogues with the political forces, and we summarize them as follows:  

First - Commitment to the constitutional terms and registering the bloc with the largest number of parties to ensure the right of the component and the completion of national entitlement for the other components of the three presidencies, within a unified vision in which the framework and its allies, the Sadrist bloc and its allies participate.  

Second - After announcing the most numerous bloc, the candidate for the position of Prime Minister is agreed upon according to the required conditions and criteria such as competence, integrity and independence, and that will be through a joint committee of the coordination framework and the Sadrist bloc  

Third - Agreeing on the government program within a specific time limit to be agreed upon, and whoever wishes from the winning blocs that adhere to the program participate in managing its implementation.  

Fourth - The opposition within the House of Representatives will monitor the government and hold it accountable for its mistakes and transgressions.  

The framework reiterated the call to the rejectionists of its repeated calls for "cooperating on righteousness and piety and urging them to place the interests of the nation and citizens above partisan and factional interests."  

  

Yesterday, Thursday, the leader of the Sadrist movement, Muqtada al-Sadr, gave the "blocking third" an opportunity to form a national majority government, while specifying the period granted to them.  

Al-Sadr said in a tweet on "Twitter" followed by "Nass": "A blessing that God has bestowed upon me... if I and those with me can be the largest winning bloc in the elections, rather an unprecedented victory, then we made the largest Shiite bloc or alliance."    

He added, "Then who should be the first to succeed in forming the largest national bloc "Save the Homeland" and nominating a prime minister acceptable to all, and I will not dispense with that, and praise be to God, Lord of the Worlds."  

He continued, "These alliances bothered a lot, so they obstructed and are still obstructing, and in order for Iraq not to remain without a government, and the security, economic, service and other conditions deteriorate, here I am giving the "blocking third" an opportunity to negotiate with all the blocs without exception to form a majority national government without the Sadrist bloc, From the first day of the blessed month of Ramadan to the ninth of the holy month of Shawwal.    

And he continued, "To that day, I ask you to pray and accept obedience, and the loved ones in the thoracic bloc should not interfere with that, neither positively nor negatively... May God reward them with the best reward, and thus I cleared my responsibility before everyone."
