eoh1965 Posted November 21, 2010 Report Share Posted November 21, 2010 Under Iraq’s constitution, Talabani has 15 days to appoint a prime minister following his selection by MPs on November 11. He had earlier been expected to name Maliki as premier on Sunday. Once selected, Maliki would have 30 days to form a government. Jalal Talabani decided to nominate Maliki as prime minister on Thursday, one day before the official limit,”the official told AFP, speaking on condition of anonymity. “That is to give him the maximum amount of time to form the government, which is a very difficult task.” From what i have under stood Maliki was already prime minister ? What are these people doing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GolferDan Posted November 21, 2010 Report Share Posted November 21, 2010 However under Iraq's constitution: Article 50: Each member of the Council of Representatives shall take the following oath before the Council prior to assuming his duties: "I sweat by God Almighty to carry our my legal duties .. etc" Some one please tell me Maliki has already been sworn in as to not create the possibility of another delay.
