An American report indicates Iranian pressure.. Close to him: Al-Sadr intends to organize demonstrations in Iraq
Shafaq News/ The US "Al-Monitor" website indicated the escalation of discontent in Iraq over Iran's role in obstructing the efforts of the Sadrist movement's leader Muqtada al-Sadr to form the new federal government, noting that the pro-Tehran coalition resorted to "tactics" against al-Sadr, including the use of the judiciary to pressure the Democratic Party Kurdistan, in addition to re-embracing Sunni figures to stand up to the other partner in the "triple alliance" led by al-Sadr, ie Parliament Speaker Muhammad al-Halbousi.
The American report pointed to an increase in protest movements on the part of al-Sadr's supporters, including in the street, after efforts to form the new government failed on the part of al-Sadr and the Kurdistan Democratic Party led by Masoud Barzani, and the Sunni alliance led by Muhammad al-Halbousi.
The report considered that the Iranian-backed militias and groups as the "coordinating framework" and their Kurdish ally represented by the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan, in addition to a number of Sunnis linked to Iran, are the cause of this political stalemate, as they exploit the "blocking third" in order to stop the political process, which sparked a wave New anti-Iran sentiment among Iraqis.
The report mentioned a demonstration that took place on April 17, in Sadr City, where Muqtada al-Sadr is popular. The demonstrators chanted anti-Iran slogans, which the Sadrists used for the first time in 2015 when they breached the Green Zone in Baghdad.
The report added that additional demonstrations took place in Al-Firdaws Square in Baghdad when young activists gathered to protest against foreign interference in forming the government, and to express their dissatisfaction with the "blocking third."
The report pointed to an attack on an Iranian diplomatic convoy inside Baghdad, which was heading to the city of Kadhimiya.
The report quoted a source close to the Sadrist movement, who requested anonymity, as saying that "Al-Sadr is taking advantage of his strong base in the south in order to organize a new wave of demonstrations to demand non-interference in the political process."
After the report mentioned that Al-Sadr recently formed the "Save the Homeland" coalition, which was unable to form the new government because of the "blocking third", and then passed the ball to the "Coordinating Coalition", the report made it clear that Al-Sadr is currently preparing for a new wave of demonstrations.
While the report referred to al-Sadr's efforts to form what he calls a "national majority" government allied with Sunnis and Kurds, it pointed out that the efforts of the "coordinating coalition" to obstruct such a government had public support from Iranian officials.
In this context, the report mentioned televised statements made by the outgoing Iranian ambassador, Iraj Masjedi, in which he said that a consensual government is the most appropriate, and that "the time has not yet come for a majority government."
However, the US report talked about other papers used by the "Coordinating Coalition" in order to put pressure on Sadr's allies, noting that the "Coalition" enjoys warm relations with the President of the Supreme Judicial Council, Faiq Zaidan, who had issued a ruling against Sadr's ally, the Kurdistan Democratic Party, to prevent Without continuing to ally with al-Sadr, as the Federal Court considered in a decision last month that any energy contracts linked to the signature of the Kurdistan Regional Government, are not legal and unconstitutional.
The same court also issued another ruling stating that a two-thirds majority is necessary in order to elect a President of the Republic.
In a parallel context, the "Coordination Coalition" is exerting mounting pressure on the Sunni ally of al-Sadr, Muhammad al-Halbousi, by supporting his Sunni rivals. About a decade of sojourn in exile.
The report added that the "Coordination Coalition" also welcomed the reception of Ali Hatem Al-Sulaiman, who he described as another competitor to Al-Halbousi, in Baghdad after spending 8 years of residing outside Iraq due to his role in the Sunni rebellion in 2013-2014 that later caused the emergence of ISIS.
Al-Monitor also pointed out to reports that work is underway to release former MP Ahmed al-Alwani, accused of leading the Sunni rebellion in 2013-2014.
The report concluded by saying that "strong anti-Iran sentiment is likely to escalate among Iraqis, while they sense a hot summer in Iraq, which is mainly dependent on Iranian gas imports for electricity generation," noting that Tehran has reduced its gas commitments and will make further reductions by midsummer.
