So far, there have been no radical changes from the divisions that were present in the Saturday session, which led to the failure of the session, which requires a two-thirds majority of the total members of the House of Representatives.

insistence on the majority

The Sadrist movement is still insisting on forming a majority government, saying that “the leaders of the coordination framework raised its slogan that there is no return to the consensus government before the elections. component" after the results of the elections.

This is what a member of the Sadrist movement says, Safaa al-Asadi, who believes that "the Shiite component whose rights they are demanding are found in mud houses, without hospitals or schools."

Al-Asadi reminded that the other party "threatened to burn Iraq in 2018 unless the government was formed from Sairoon and Al-Fateh," and the result was demonstrations that brought down the government.

Al-Asadi pointed out in a television interview, followed by "Ultra Iraq", that "all the independents who attended the Saturday session did not have any personal or political demand at all, but rather their demand was Iraq," also referring to "the introduction of the new generation and the extension of a set of points that leaked to the media, and it is one of our adoptions."

Regarding the policy of carrot and stick, Al-Asadi says that if the Sadrist movement had used it, "the attendance of Parliament would have been more than 250 deputies."

Fear of mass graves

On the other hand, the coordination framework requires that it be registered with the Sadrist movement as a "larger bloc" to enter the session that will be held on Wednesday.

Representative of the State of Law coalition, Aqil Al-Fatlawi, stresses that the rights of the voters of the coordination framework "who are more than the voters of the Sadrist movement" should not go by number, not according to the electoral law.

The framework, according to Al-Fatlawi, has no objection to going to the opposition, "which we deem appropriate and which is not exclusionary."

Members of the coordinating framework say they fear a return to the pre-2003 regime and mass graves

Al-Fatlawi asserts that "the tripartite alliance, except for the Kurds, wants to exclude us," citing what happened in Monday's session, and the passage of the "Food Security Support" law, which Al-Fatlawi considered "a jump on people's rights."

Al-Fatlawi revealed that the tripartite alliance and the presidency of the House of Representatives "did not allow the deputies of the coordination framework to speak" in Monday's session.

The fear of the coordination framework does not stop at its exclusion, but rather “a return to the pre-2003 regime and mass graves” through “absence of the role of the Shiites,” in the words of MP Al-Fatlawi, who says that “the fear of cemeteries is still in our hearts.”

Al-Fatlawi touched on his threat from a deputy from the Sadrist bloc, who told him that "the representatives in parliament are not diplomats, they are from the Mahdi Army and they will discipline you."

A member of the Sadrist movement, Safaa al-Asadi, says, in response to the framework’s fears, that “there is no fear for the Shiite component, and we have brought the son of Muhammad Baqir al-Sadr,” but he acknowledges that “some parties fear the movement because they practiced exclusion, displacement and imprisonment against it when we left government positions.”

Al-Asadi asserts that "the Sadrist movement has no retaliatory intentions from others," but the issue, from his point of view, "is related to obtaining positions, not fear for the Shiite component."
