The leader of the Hasm Alliance, Dhari Al-Dulaimi, expected, on Wednesday, to resolve the crisis of electing a new Speaker of the House of Representatives next week, stressing that the election session will witness competition between Al-Issawi and Al-Mashhadani.
Al-Dulaimi said in a statement to / Al-Maalouma / agency, that “the determination of the forces of the Coordination Framework for Sunni political forces of the twentieth of this current month as the final date to resolve the crisis of the position of Speaker of Parliament is serious,” indicating that “the Sunni forces competing for the position have not reached an agreement on a specific figure and that the competition will remain between the two representatives, Mahmoud Al-Mashhadani and Salem Al-Issawi.”
He added that “the date set by the Coordination Framework will certainly be binding on everyone, including the Speaker of Parliament,” expecting “to hold a session to elect a new Speaker of the House of Representatives during one of the parliament sessions next week.”
The framework had set the twentieth of this current month as the final date and last opportunity for the Sunni component to choose a candidate for the position during its last regular meeting.
