MP Hamid Abbas stressed on Wednesday the necessity of turning the page on political disputes and prioritizing the supreme national interest among all parties and forces to ensure the completion of the cabinet formation within the specified timeframes and to enable state institutions to perform their duties more effectively and stably.
Abbas told Al-Maalouma, “The continued wrangling and bickering over filling the remaining ministerial portfolios does not serve the path of political and executive stability, but rather negatively impacts the pace of service delivery and the follow-up on strategic projects awaited by the Iraqi public.” He explained that “the current stage requires genuine cooperation and transcending narrow interests.”
He added that “completing the cabinet with ministers who possess competence, integrity, and administrative ability is a fundamental step to enhance institutional performance and prevent any administrative vacuum that could affect the reconstruction and development process.” He called on “political blocs to intensify consultations and make mutual concessions in order to resolve this issue and proceed with the government program without obstacles.”
