On Monday, Majid Shenkali, a member of the Kurdistan Democratic Party bloc, said that the party had formed two separate delegations, one to negotiate the federal government entitlement in Baghdad, and the other concerned with the entitlement to form the Kurdistan Regional Government.
Shankali told Shafaq News Agency that a delegation from the Democratic Party will visit Baghdad in the next few days, before the first session of the House of Representatives, to discuss the political entitlement related to the formation of the next federal government.
He pointed out that the election of the Speaker of Parliament and his two deputies will determine the features of the next Prime Minister and the general political entitlement, indicating that the political party that obtains a position within the presidency of Parliament does not have the same points when competing to form the next government.
This comes amid efforts by the Coordination Framework forces to decide on the identity of the next prime minister and end the ongoing controversy, through agreement, voting, or resorting to a compromise candidate, amid differing positions regarding the renewal of Mohammed Shia al-Sudani’s mandate, according to what an informed source told Shafaq News Agency.
The Coordination Framework called for a session of the House of Representatives to elect its leadership, after its failure to agree on the formation of the government, while stressing the continuation of dialogues and discussions between all political parties regarding the upcoming national entitlements.
President Abdul Latif Jamal Rashid had set December 29 as the date for the first session of the Iraqi parliament.
