Al-Nahh reveals pressures to renew Al-Kazemi’s mandate and excludes a Sunni consensus on Al-Halbousi

The leader of the National Nahj Alliance, Hussein Al-Aqabi, revealed, on Saturday, that there is international and regional pressure to renew the mandate of the outgoing Prime Minister, Mustafa Al-Kazemi, indicating that the Sunni forces will never agree on Muhammad Al-Halbousi’s candidacy for the presidency of Parliament.
Al-Aqabi said in a statement to “Al-Maalouma” that “regional and international pressures towards renewing Al-Kazemi’s term as prime minister are annoying, but the political forces must categorically reject these pressures.”
He added, “A consensus on renewing the three presidencies is not possible, especially the Sunni consensus on the former parliament speaker, Muhammad al-Halbousi, which makes the selection of new personalities more likely.”
Al-Uqabi pointed out that “there is no way for the Shiite forces but to agree between the coordination framework and the Sadrist movement, and to resolve the selection of a prime minister acceptable to the Kurdish and Sunni forces.”
