[size=45]The option of returning to the consensus government seemed to be very much on the political scene, with talk of a delay in its formation for at least nine months. The right to present a candidate for the Prime Minister.[/size]
[size=45]The leader of the Sadrist movement, Muqtada al-Sadr, had confirmed yesterday his intention to form a majority government that would be faced by an opposition in parliament, and had previously indicated that the Sadrists were the largest bloc, according to the outcomes of the electoral process that took place on the tenth of last month.[/size]
[size=45]The head of the Tasmeem Alliance, Amer Al-Fayez, said, in an interview with Al-Mada, that "what is currently taking place between the political blocs is just dialogues and discussions, with proposals without reaching an agreement on alliances."[/size]
[size=45]Al-Fayez added, "Everyone is waiting for the final results of the elections to know the true size of each bloc," adding that "the parameters have been clearly defined, that the results will not change much."[/size]
[size=45]He pointed out that "waiting is also accompanied by efforts to persuade the opposition forces to accept the results of the elections, and then we start dialogues, with expectations that the formation of the government will be delayed for some time."[/size]
[size=45]Al-Fayez pointed out that “the last session, the political forces were unable to determine who is the most numerous bloc in charge of forming the government,” and spoke of “there is a fear among some of the repetition of that experience, and consequently falling into an explicit violation of the provisions of the constitution.”[/size]
[size=45]He noted, "The mechanism will not change much in these elections, with the possibility of a more numerous bloc known to all, but it will nominate the person responsible for forming the government in coordination with others."[/size]
[size=45]Al-Fayez stated, "The Iraqi government, given the parliament's multiplicity of blocs and parties, will not pass without obtaining consensus on it and from all components."[/size]
[size=45]And he indicated, "The political experience in Iraq after 2003 will not bring us until the present time with a bloc that is not of a sectarian or national nature and succeed in obtaining a majority, in order to be able to form a government and pass it comfortably in the House of Representatives."[/size]
[size=45]Al-Fayez pointed out, “It is difficult to predict in advance that a front, whether the Sadrist movement or the coordination framework, will be the largest bloc,” and considered that “it is not possible at the present time; Because this is linked to the outcomes of the political dialogues that will start after the final approval of the election results.”[/size]
[size=45]He stressed that the dispute "does not only include the candidate for the position of Prime Minister, but there is another problem related to the presidency of the Republic and the House of Representatives."[/size]
[size=45]Al-Fayez finds that “the reason is the same related to the absence of a bloc that enjoys a political majority that would enable it to form a government and choose presidencies without consensus with others.”[/size]
[size=45]And he added, "The political custom will remain as it is, with the presidency for the Kurds, the government for the Shiites, and the parliament for the Sunnis, in order to ensure political stability under the current circumstances."[/size]
[size=45]Al-Fayez stated, "All political forces, whether winning the elections or objecting to their results, must make concessions and go to accept the results and move towards forming a government that meets the aspirations of the Iraqis."[/size]
[size=45]He continues, "The only way out of the current crisis is to accept what the Electoral Commission announced, while preserving the legal right to object and resolve it according to the correct contexts, and thus we can exit the political vacuum."[/size]
[size=45]Al-Fayez went on to say that "things are heading towards a Shiite consensus on the position of prime minister, according to certain conditions, with the ministries being shared among the blocs, as was the custom in previous electoral cycles."[/size]
[size=45]For his part, a member of the Al-Hikma Movement, Fahd Al-Jubouri, expected in a statement to (Al-Mada), that "the formation of the government will be delayed for nine months or more."[/size]
[size=45]Al-Jubouri added, "The current results, despite the objections to them, gave us a larger bloc, which is the coordination framework, as it represents the Shiite majority in the next parliament."[/size]
[size=45]He explained, "The framework obtained preliminary consensus with the Sunnis and the Kurds in order to help form the largest bloc, and we did not reach a final agreement, and the reason is to wait for the final results."[/size]
[size=45]Al-Jubouri spoke of “there are those who call for a return to consensus,” but he finds this option “that it will not change anything from reality, and there will be no democratic political process based on loyalty and opposition.”[/size]
[size=45]It is noteworthy that the Independent High Electoral Commission has confirmed that the results of the counting and sorting were identical so far, while the coordinating framework of the Shiite forces insists on rejecting these outcomes, calling on the judicial authorities to intervene and end what it considered fraud and vote manipulation.[/size]
