A political source in the Al-Fateh Alliance revealed, on Monday, the position of the “Shiite” political forces regarding whether the speaker of Parliament, Muhammad al-Halbousi, would remain in the position or dismiss him.
The source said, “The Shiite political forces were not always for one party at the expense of another,” indicating that “the positions of the three presidencies each belong to a specific component. The Republic is for the Kurds, the ministers are for the Shiites, and the parliament is for the Sunnis.”
The source clarified that “choosing or withdrawing confidence or dismissing one of them is in the hands of the parties of the component assigned to him this position.”
He pointed out that “the Shiite forces informed the Sunni forces consisting of the Iraqi Front (led by Osama al-Nujaifi) and the Union of Forces (led by al-Halbousi) that he who represents a Sunni majority in parliament and enjoys political and popular support, that the Shiite forces are with him, whether it is included in Parliament Speaker Muhammad al-Halbousi remaining in the position or I removed him from his post. ”
The Iraqi “Sunni” front, led by Osama al-Nujaifi, is seeking to withdraw confidence from Parliament Speaker Muhammad al-Halbousi, and replace him with another president from the same front after “agreement” with the Shiites and the Kurds in this regard.
This front consists of 35 deputies, and includes the Salvation and Development Front blocs, the masses bloc, the Arab project, the Islamic party and the independent Iraqi bloc – as well as the contribution of independent representatives.
In the context, leaders of the Iraqi Front and their representatives met this morning with the Kurdish leader, Masoud Barzani, in Erbil.
According to a statement issued by the front, the developments in the political situation and the serious crises that Iraq is going through were reviewed, indicating that the views were identical regarding the need to take “decisive steps to reform the political process and save it from expected failure, if things continue to go like this.”
The two parties stressed, according to the statement, the importance of “establishing a new political contract that leads to building a successful state in which the constitution is applied, laws are respected and balance is taken into account,” stressing that “this requires consensus between statesmen who understand these risks and respect their obligations.”
According to the statement, “the two parties pledged to continue consultations to achieve these goals.”
