Union Representative, Nermin Maarouf, told Shafaq News Agency, “The only candidate of the National Union for the post of President of the Republic is Barham Salih. There are dialogues between the National Union and the Democratic Party, and it is hoped that an agreement will be reached during the coming period.”

And this session was held by the decision of the Federal Supreme Court, last Tuesday, which ruled that it was unconstitutional to reopen the candidacy by the Presidency of Parliament, without a decision to be voted on by the majority of the members of the Council.
