The political scene is still dominated by the echoes of the declaration of close people to the Iraqi Prime Minister, [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] , that he does not intend to run in [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] scheduled for the tenth of next October, which coincided with a similar announcement by a political movement close to him, what observers and MPs considered to stem from Political pressure.
Yesterday, Iraqi media outlets close to Al-Kazemi reported that the latter does not intend to run in the upcoming elections, nor to support or participate in any electoral political bloc. Political, and ministers must remember that they came for service reasons, not political goals. " Al-Kazemi added, according to the same source, that "the ministers should not exploit their ministries for the elections, and I categorically reject any exploitation of the state's capabilities by the candidates for the elections."
Meanwhile, Abd al-Rahman al-Jubouri, a leader in the "stage" movement, in which close associates of the prime minister, including government advisors, are participating, announced that the movement will withdraw from the next election race. He explained that "the current phase has been frozen as an organization and political action, and we look forward to a strong and effective role in supporting independent personalities and national currents participating in the elections, and that our organizational work continues, but the lack of time and our lack of agreement on coalitions prevented that."
Regarding the reasons for Al-Kazemi’s decision to stay away from the electoral race, an Iraqi official revealed that the decision “relates to previous conditions by the political forces that agreed to assign Al-Kazemi to head the government, which stipulates that he will not run for the upcoming elections,” adding, in an interview with Al-Arabi Al-Jadeed, on condition not to mention His name, "The decision taken by Al-Kazemi came after meetings with a number of Shiite political forces that took over the matter of assigning him as a compromise candidate for prime minister last May."
For his part, the head of the Irada parliamentary bloc, Representative Hussein Arab, said, "The agreement previously concluded with Al-Kazemi is the reason behind his exclusion from the electoral race."
Before Al-Kazemi assumed the premiership, in May 2020, the major political forces (Shiite forces) objected to him, and only provided support for him after several conditions, including not to run in the elections, and not to support any bloc that participated in it, which was accepted by Al-Kazemi.
Arab explained, in an interview with Al-Araby Al-Jadeed, that “participation in the elections is entrusted to the party and the political entity, and that there are dozens of [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] that have been officially registered in the country, but not necessarily that all of these parties will participate in the elections,” indicating that “the current stage that enumerated Supported by Al-Kazemi, he is now outside the electoral competition. "
He attributed the reason for the movement’s departure from the electoral competition to “the previously concluded agreement between the Shiite and Kazemi political blocs, which stipulated that it should not participate in the elections, and that no party or bloc should support it in the event that it obtains the premiership.
Arab added, "But other personalities, whether in Al-Kazemi's office or otherwise, have the right to establish political movements and political parties, and Al-Kazemi has the right to belong or run as candidate if there is no condition on him and he has accepted it."
He expressed his belief that “the prime minister is not convinced to participate in the electoral process in the first place, because the formation of political blocs needs time, organizations and many things, and he is busy with his great tasks, and that time is short. If Al-Kazemi was determined to run in the elections, he would have announced this, especially since the nomination process Support and others cannot take place by stealth. Rather, they must be announced and revealed to people through the actions they need. "
The deputy did not rule out the existence of external political pressures taking place on the Iraqi elections in all their details, indicating that "external pressure is certainly contained, and that in every election that Iraq has fought, it has witnessed great pressure, but what those pressures cannot do is influence the Iraqi voter, as the influence has become The Iraqi voter is not easy, which may make those pressures less effective in the upcoming elections.

In turn, the researcher on Iraqi political affairs, Ahmed Al-Nuaimi considered that Al-Kazemi and the current supported by him did not run in the elections as a result of "pressures and promises." With enough seats that qualify him for a second term, very weak, but if he remains independent and is at an average distance between the various blocs, he has hope that a settlement candidate will return, or at least he will return to head the intelligence service as he was previously, but in the event that he is nominated, these options will be remote Very about it. "
He explained that "Al-Kazemi's staying outside the election race will also allow him to monitor any fraud and manipulation as an arbiter and an observer and not a partner in it."
The "stage" movement is a political entity that was formed last year, and presented itself as representing the protesters and demonstrators of Iraq, but it quickly retreated from this capacity after widespread protests emerging from the squares and squares of demonstrations regarding the inaccuracy of this.
Activists and journalists participate in the political entity, most of them close to Al-Kazemi, and last February, the "stage" obtained a license for political work from the Iraqi Elections Commission.
