Baghdad - Mawazine News
The constitutional deadline for electing a new president for Iraq expired today, Wednesday, in light of the continuing political crisis and the inability to complete a quorum for the parliament session to choose the president, which needs a quorum of two-thirds of the number of deputies, amid expectations that the Federal Supreme Court will intervene to issue a new decision regarding a deadline position.
The Iraqi parliament failed twice in choosing a new president for the country during the past week, after 220 deputies out of 329 could not vote to choose the president, as stipulated by the constitution in force since 2005.
The independent representative, Muhammad Anouz, stressed that "today is the end of the time limit for electing the president of the republic." He added, "I do not think that anything will happen except that the election process will be delayed."
He added, in statements to reporters, "that a constitutional rule or principle be violated for a few days or weeks is better than going to burn the country or any negative expectations," saying: "We have violated the constitution since it was written until today in various forms, and this was not the first breach, so it must be reached The parties agreed to an agreement that ends this dispute, which is not surprising in the Iraqi scene."
As for the representative of the Kurdistan Islamic Union, Muthanna Amin, he favored the Federal Court’s intervention and issuance of a decision to extend another to resolve the election session of the President of the Republic, in addition to its ratification of the continuation of the President of the Republic and the Council of Ministers to work as a caretaker until the end of the new period, ruling out the possibility of acknowledging the “formation of an emergency government.” ".
He stressed that the end of the constitutional period regarding holding the presidential election session, which falls today, will force Parliament to return again to the Federal Court to clarify a new interpretation regarding the period that can be granted again to hold the presidential election session or what it will decide on the fate of the session.
He added: "All political forces, especially the big ones, face great embarrassment in front of the Iraqi street, which has not seen a political breakthrough," warning of "a wave of popular anger if this dangerous political blockage continues."
And the head of the Supreme Judicial Council in Iraq, Faeq Zaidan, had confirmed last Sunday that the Federal Court had constantly worked hard for the President of the Republic to hold his position, because this case does not apply to the constitutional text of the vacancy of the position, stressing the need to amend the current constitution.
In turn, the researcher in Iraqi political affairs, Muhannad Al-Janabi, also suggested the continuation of the constitutional terms in light of the current crisis, and he said in his tweet, “The Federal Court has implicitly preferred between not disrupting state institutions or abiding by constitutional timings, and it considered the formation of the federal authorities to take precedence over a commitment The terms that the constitution did not address cases of breach of,” stressing that “this makes it likely that the constitutional terms will continue to be renewed until the election of the president of the republic.”
On the fifth of last month, the Iraqi parliament voted to reopen the candidacy for the position of President of the Republic, in an attempt to end the wide political debate in the country since the legislative elections were held 6 months ago.
This is the third time that candidacy for the presidency of the republic has been opened. Parliament decided, in its first session, which was held on the ninth of last January, to open the door for candidacy for a period of 30 days, but the session devoted to voting on the election of the president of the republic, which was scheduled for the seventh of Last February, it did not convene due to the lack of a quorum, so the parliament speaker decided to open the candidacy door again for a period of three days, which began on the eighth of the same month, before the Federal Court canceled the decision.
