Constitutional judge: Two paths before the House of Representatives are unparalleled to address the political blockage

2022.03.27 - 15:37

 

Baghdad - people  

On Sunday, the constitutional expert and former judge, Latif Mustafa, identified two ways to address the "political blockage" in the event that Parliament fails next Wednesday to pass the President of the Republic, one of which is the dissolution of Parliament.  

  

 

  

Mustafa said in a clarification followed by "Nass" (March 27, 2022), that "it is the duty of the elected parliament to either complete the implementation of the constitutional steps to form the constitutional institutions represented by electing the president of the republic and granting confidence to the government, or it is dissolved and returned to the voters again to obtain a comfortable majority." It enables it to form constitutional institutions and punish those who deserve punishment, and this is what is happening in many democratic countries.”  

  

He added that "the best and most constitutional solution is in the interest of the country and its democratic system. In the next session, if Parliament is not successful in electing the President of the Republic, 110 deputies request the dissolution of Parliament, and at least 165 deputies vote in the same session to dissolve and hold new elections within the constitutional period of 60 days according to Article 64."

{Political: Al-Furat News} Independent MP Basem Khashan criticized the terms of the extension movement, to attend the presidential election session, which was not held yesterday due to the lack of a full quorum with "a justification for their political position and throwing dust in El-Ayoun."

Khashan said in a post on his Facebook page: “Dear brothers in Extension asked for a special amnesty for the demonstrators, and a special amnesty is not asked from the Speaker of Parliament or the political blocs, but rather from the President of the Republic. The request is in accordance with the contexts and procedures established by law.

He added, "I think that the inclusion of requests related to the detainees, the disappeared and the martyrs in the negotiations to follow the projects of others was to cast dust in the eyes of the people, clinging to their independent right to lead this stage," adding, "But even the other terms of the agreement have no value because they are directed at those who are not qualified. The decision to reduce the dollar exchange rate is a government decision in which the House of Representatives does not interfere, as well as the opening of branches of government banks in the region and the rest of the demands related to salaries and oil prices and its derivatives within the region.

Khashan continued, "This was an attempt to justify a political position in which we do not interfere in any way. Each deputy has his opinion and his decision, which he takes based on what he deems for himself and his voters. In all cases, milk spilled and water would not benefit us, and our comrades returned to their seats with nothing but words written on a piece of paper. Words have no value, not like words that are commensurate with the entitlement of independent representatives and the people’s demands and rights.”
