The Iraqi government's Prime Minister Adel Abdulmahdi's cabinet has been transformed into a test of political power among the Shia political family, particularly among a faction led by Shi'ite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr, who says he is in control of the Iraqi decision and another led by Hadi al-Amiri, who is close to Iran.
BAGHDAD - The Iraqi parliament to Saturday held its session on Thursday and missed its agenda item on the candidates for the eight remaining ministerial posts from the government of Adel Abdul Mahdi, after a loud session held Tuesday deepened differences over the names of candidates for those positions that Iran tried to intervene in To determine who occupies it, especially the post of interior minister, which Tehran tried to associate with one of its loyalists.
The reform alliance sponsored by Shi'ite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr has responded strongly to the moves by the commander of the Quds Force in the Iranian Revolutionary Guards, Gen. Qassim Soleimani, in Baghdad, where he tried for two days to press for the appointment of the head of the Popular Popular Front, Faleh al-Fayadh, a pro-Tehran interior minister.
The response came through a high-level meeting held by leaders of the most prominent forces within the "reform" in the home of the leader of the stream of wisdom Ammar al-Hakim, led by former Prime Minister Haider Abadi, the leader of the National List, Iyad Allawi, former Defense Minister Khalid al-Obeidi and Nassar al-Rubaie, special representative of the Sadr.
The leaders of the "reform" decided to come out of a unified position after the events of last Tuesday's session, in which the building coalition tried to pass Fayadh as a candidate for the interior.
The statement issued by the meeting stressed "the need to complete the government cab and provide competent ministers and commitment to constitutional and democratic contexts."
The statement said that the coalition will move "towards the political blocs and MPs to convince them to return to the constitutional and legal contexts in passing the outstanding issues."
He called on the Alliance to "give the time to assess the work of the current government and the extent of its commitment to the government program and the provision of services and implementation of the development programs expected," stressing the importance of "the representation of the component Turkmen and the component Yazidi and the rest of the Iraqi components fair representation in the government commensurate with the status of these components and their community role" .
The completion of the cabinet cab has turned into a dilemma that overshadows the situation in the Iraqi street, which is motivated by demonstrations and protests
Analysts comment on the current political crisis in Iraq to say that the Interior Ministry complex will not be easy solutions unless the existing coalition of alliances, which is unexpected in light of the current polarizations that the owners see that there is no hope of making concessions may lead to political losses not Her vs.
The bloc of reform, whose leaders say they have given up their stakes in the government of Abdul Mahdi, has not been marked by a remarkable appreciation by the pro-Iranian construction bloc, but the latter bloc has become more sinister and is looking to gain more gains in the presence of the speaker of the House of Representatives, which has lost its neutrality and even credibility when resorting to the style Counterfeiting.
And does not rule out an Iraqi political source to be dropped the Speaker of the House of Representatives may reach the risk of withdrawing confidence from the Prime Minister, who seems unable to the pressures of Qasim Soleimani, the latter, which so far failed to force the opponents to Faleh Fayad to abandon their position and subject to the Iranian position, which is not characterized by this Time than in previous times of strength and ability to make compromises.
"If Sadr is assured of Soleimani's failure to impose his agenda, it would be encouraging to move forward with the opposition and to consider the Interior Ministry complex if it is resolved in a national way as the salvation pillar of the government of Abdul Mahdi. And through which is judged on the future of this government and how to manage the next stage and the ability to be independent decision-maker away from Iranian influence.
The "Arabs" that "Sadr told the leaders of the reform coalition during a meeting Wednesday through his representative Nassar al-Rubaie, insisting on rejecting the nomination of Fayadh," and called on the leaders of the "reform" a unified position.
According to sources familiar with the discussions of the meeting of the House of Hakim, the attendees showed a supportive attitude to Sadr in the face of Sulaimani pressures.
Sunni deputies in the Iraqi parliament say that "Soleimani told parliament speaker Mohamed Halbusi through intermediaries Tehran adheres to Fayyad, calling on him to facilitate the voting process." They add that "a similar message reached Prime Minister Adel Abdul Mahdi." But Abdul Mahdi will not be able, according to observers, to continue to challenge the will of Sadr and his allies because this may cost him office.
Observers do not rule out that Sadr leads a political movement to oust the speaker himself from office if he decided to keep pace with the Iranian desire.
In practice, the reform alliance proved to be the largest bloc in parliament when it blocked the holding of the voting session on Fayyad.
This bloc can play an influential role against Halabousi and Abdel Mahdi in the parliament if this dispute turns into a political clash and a break of wills.
With the exception of the defense portfolio held by Allawi's list, the reform alliance has no party representation in the government of Abdul Mahdi, after Abadi, Hakim and Muqtada al-Sadr agreed to the proposal to give up their stake in the government and give the prime minister the freedom to choose who he deems appropriate, Oil Minister Thamer Ghadhban, Foreign Minister Mohammed al-Hakim, Minister of Electricity Louay al-Yasiri and Minister of Health Alaa Alwan.
However, the relative smoothness that characterized the selection of 14 ministers from the cabinet of Adel Abdul Mahdi was completely absent from the completion of the filling of the remaining eight ministries, due to the growing differences over who occupies them.
There is a fear that the political situation will cast a shadow over the already congested and provocative street and protest against the poor conditions.
