With a limited agenda the framework sets Monday as the date for deciding on the candidate for Prime MinisterShafaq News – Baghdad
On Sunday, the General Secretariat of the Coordination Framework called on the framework’s forces to hold a meeting on Monday at the office of the leader of the Wisdom Movement, Ammar al-Hakim, stressing that the agenda is limited to (deciding on the candidate for the presidency of the Council of Ministers).

The coordinating framework that includes the ruling Shiite political forces in Iraq failed to hold a “crucial” meeting yesterday, Saturday, and it was postponed until tomorrow, Monday.

These developments come at a time when the government formation process has entered a critical phase, following the election of Nizar Amidi as President of the Republic. This places the largest bloc before a constitutional deadline ending on April 26 to officially present its candidate, amid fears of returning to square one of political deadlock.
