    [size=45][You must be registered and logged in to see this image.][/size]
    [size=45]A jam in political initiatives in Iraq with the advent of the Eid al-Fitr holiday, under a specific title is to address the political blockage in the country, the most recent of which was the initiative of the leader of the Sadrist movement, which included inviting independents to form a government within 15 days, which came hours after the initiative of the coordination framework to resolve the political crisis in The country, amid anticipation and questions about the result that these initiatives can bring in the face of the current crisis in the country.[/size]

    [size=31]“Coordination Framework” initiative[/size]

    [size=45]In a summary of the lengthy narrative of his campaign  [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] , through an official statement of several pages distributed to the media, the most prominent statement in it is that the position of the prime minister is the right of the majority, and it must be preserved through the political blocs representing this largest component.[/size]
    [size=45]The initiative stipulates that naming the prime minister must be through one Shiite political bloc, agreeing to name him among themselves, which naturally means withdrawing the Sadrist movement's eligibility to form a government as the first winner of the elections.[/size]
    [size=45]The initiative also included a pledge to support the prime minister who is nominated by the Shiite component bloc (the coordination framework and the Sadrist movement) together, and jointly bear the responsibility for his failure, success and accountability. It also spoke about the right of independents to present their candidate for the position of prime minister, provided that he is approved by The "biggest ingredient" block.[/size]
    [size=45]The initiative included a reference to the re-election of the Speaker of Parliament again, by talking about the importance of the three presidencies, the Republic, Parliament and the government, having the approval of all components.[/size]

    [size=31]Muqtada al-Sadr's response[/size]

    [size=45]Hours later, the leader of the "Sadr movement" Muqtada al-Sadr responded  with a [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]  which he offered the independent representatives to form the government "through his alliance."[/size]
    [size=45]Al-Sadr promised to support the independents, in a move to win their votes, and to get out of the crisis of choosing a president of the republic, which needs the vote of 220 deputies (out of 329), according to what the Federal Court decided.[/size]
    [size=45]Al-Sadr said, in a tweet to him on Twitter, yesterday, Wednesday, that "after consulting with the allies in the largest coalition (Save the Homeland), I say that the current political process has three parties. But because of the Iraqi judiciary’s decision to activate the blocking third, it delayed the formation of the majority government, and the second party is the coordinating framework calling for the consensus government, and we gave it a deadline of forty days, and it failed to form the consensus government, and the third party, they are the independent individuals in Parliament.”[/size]
    [size=45]Addressing the independent deputies, al-Sadr said, "We call on them to form an independent no less than forty of them, away from the coordinating framework as a whole, which took its chance," adding, "The independents should join the larger coalition to form an independent government, and we will inform them of some details of it later."[/size]
    [size=45]He continued, "The largest coalition will vote for their government, including the Sadrist bloc and in agreement with the Sunnis and Kurds of the coalition, and the Sadrist movement will not have a participation in its ministers, provided that this is within a maximum period of 15 days, in order to expedite the end of the suffering of the people."[/size]
    [size=45]He added, "I also repeat my call to some of those whom we think well of from the coordination framework of the alliance with the Sadrist bloc, hoping for them to give priority to national interests over narrow interests, and to get out of the neck of forced political obstruction."[/size]

    [size=31]Announcing the failure of the “framework” to form the government[/size]

    [size=45]In a phone call, a prominent member of the Sadrist movement in the city of Najaf in southern Iraq, who asked not to be named, said, “The initiative presented by the Coordination Framework Alliance is an announcement of its failure to form a government, or to dismantle the Alliance to Save a Nation, as it has been working over the past weeks to weaken chest front.[/size]
    [size=45]He added, "The initiative did not bring anything new, but rather is a confirmation of their previous position of a sectarian quota government, based on the principle of this ministry for me and that ministry for you, so that corruption and covering up corruption and courtesies at the expense of the people will continue."[/size]

    [size=31]The “Coordination Framework” initiative deepens the crisis[/size]

    [size=45]The member of the Sadrist movement considered that "some of the paragraphs carried by the so-called arbitrarily initiative deepen the crisis and do not solve it, such as the issue of re-electing the Speaker of Parliament, and the attempt to involve independent representatives in the issue of choosing the prime minister, instead of the Sadrist movement, with the aim of quarreling."[/size]
    [size=45]He revealed a "real and sincere solution initiative", to be launched by the "Save a Homeland" coalition, after the expiry of the forty-day deadline set next Wednesday.[/size]
    [size=45]For his part, Kurdistan Democratic Party member Imad Baglan commented on the initiative launched by the "Coordination Framework" coalition, saying that it "will not solve or change anything."[/size]
    [size=45]He added, to Al-Araby Al-Jadeed, that "the insistence of the coordination framework forces to re-form a government according to sectarian quotas deepens the crisis and does not solve it, especially since the coordination framework initiative emphasized this issue, which is a consensual government according to the sectarian quota theory. Therefore, we ask what is new about this initiative, but is it a confirmation of their previous position?[/size]
    [size=45]Baglan revealed that "the coming days will witness an intense political movement with the aim of mobilizing to hold a session to elect the president of the republic, to move towards forming the new government." There are initiatives and solutions that will be announced in the coming days by al-Sadr and his allies to end the political impasse.”[/size]
    [size=45]In turn, a member of the Sadrist movement, Issam Hussein, described the new initiative as "not worthy of comment."[/size]
    [size=45]He said: “An initiative that was stillborn, like its predecessors. All initiatives of the coordination framework emphasize the formation of a consensus government similar to the previous seven governments, and this is what the Sadrist movement and those with it from the political forces, Sunni and Kurdish, and a large part of the independent representatives reject.”[/size]
    [size=45]He also confirmed the readiness of the Sadrist movement and its allies to resume their political movement again, which is focused on "mobilizing 220 deputies in Parliament to hold a session to elect the president of the republic, even if the forces of the coordination framework boycotted this session as they did previously." Everyone realized the danger of the situation remaining as it is, without the formation of the new government.”[/size]

    [size=31]Reassembling previous positions[/size]

    [size=45]On the other hand, the head of the “Political Thinking” center, Ihsan Al-Shammari, described the initiative of the “Coordination Framework” alliance as “an attempt to show their weight, and that they also have the initiative. However, at the level of content, the initiative does not differ from the old one, as it is merely a re-compilation of positions previously put forward by the leaders of the framework.”[/size]
    [size=45]Al-Shammari indicated, "The coordination framework initiative represents, in a clearer way, a message of cordoning off any future and possible reaction by the leader of the Sadrist movement, Muqtada al-Sadr, upon the expiration of the deadline given by al-Sadr to them. It is also a message of pressure on Parliament Speaker Muhammad al-Halbousi, especially since the initiative talked about the reformation of the three presidencies in Iraq.[/size]
    [size=45]He explained that “the project to change Parliament Speaker Muhammad al-Halbousi has begun, and the Coordination Framework Initiative is an official announcement for this project. This is why the framework initiative also came to shuffle the cards, not only.”[/size]

    [size=31]The "Independent Iraq" bloc supports Al-Sadr's initiative[/size]

    [size=45]In addition, an independent Iraqi parliamentary bloc announced, finally, its acceptance of the initiative put forward by the leader of the Sadrist movement, Muqtada al-Sadr, to grant independents the opportunity to form the new government in a period not exceeding 15 days, while the majority of political blocs, including the independent ones, remained silent about the “framework” initiative. Coordinating Committee, which exacerbates the political scene.[/size]
    [size=45]While the coordination framework initiative included paragraphs calling for “independent deputies” who enjoy “the support of the component” to be given an “opportunity” to present a candidate for the position of prime minister, in an attempt to win them over, al-Sadr responded hours later with an initiative in which he offered the independent representatives to form the government “through his alliance.” And he promised to support them, provided that they are far from the “coordination framework.”[/size]
    [size=45]In the midst of this heated political debate and competition to win the independents, Al-Sadr's initiative seemed the most attractive to them, especially given the opportunity to form a government.[/size]
    [size=45]The “Independent Iraq” parliamentary bloc was the first to comment on this, declaring its acceptance of Al-Sadr’s initiative, and said in a statement, “Belief in national responsibility, and to give priority to the public interest, and to get out of the political impasse and respect the constitutional terms, our bloc, headed by independent MP Abdul Hadi Al-Hasnawi, announces acceptance of Al-Sadr’s initiative by invitation. Independent representatives to form an independent national government that expresses the aspirations of the citizen and seeks to improve services and rebuild the country.[/size]
    [size=45]And she called on "independents, whether from the independent Iraq coalition or individuals, to unite efforts and speak out to come up with a meaningful independent political formation capable of developing a solution to the current crisis that the country is going through."[/size]
    [size=45]The “Independent Iraq” bloc added: “We also call on all political forces to support the national initiative, renounce differences, and not influence the brothers of independent representatives, whether by threats or threats, and respect the will of the voters away from partisan and factional interests, as the citizen has suffered a lot as a result of the political blockage and delay The formation of the government did not reflect negatively and clearly on the rights of the citizen, services and building the country.”[/size]

    [size=31]“Extension Movement” is studying the Al-Sadr initiative[/size]

    [size=45]As for the “Extension Movement”, which is an independent movement, it has not yet announced any official position on this, while Raed Al-Saleh, a member of the movement’s political bureau, confirmed that “his movement will study Al-Sadr’s initiative.”[/size]
    [size=45]Al-Saleh said in a televised statement that “the first initiative (the coordination initiative) mentioned the independents with shame and shyness, and said that they have the right to choose the prime minister,” noting that “the presence of a prime minister from the independents without a parliamentary cover will be very difficult, and the parties will impose their control over him and be dependent on them.” And this is what you do not accept as an extension.”[/size]
    [size=45]He stressed that "the ball is now in our court, and that our movement is studying Al-Sadr's initiative in depth to reach an effective opinion on it," stressing, "We are with initiatives to solve the political blockage and get out of the crisis, especially since the people need a government to pass the budget and other obstructive matters."[/size]
    [size=45]He added, "We will deal positively with the initiative with certain conditions and guarantees, and these guarantees are not for our interest, but for the people," stressing, "We are in principle with the initiative, and we will have a clear position on it soon."[/size]

    [size=31]Doubts about the possibility of achieving Al-Sadr's initiative[/size]

    [size=45]Since Wednesday night, the independent representatives have been conducting extensive contacts regarding the Sadr initiative. An independent deputy in the current parliament said, "Al-Sadr's initiative is unexpected, and there is no doubt that all independent representatives need several days to put their papers in order."[/size]
    [size=45]The deputy, who preferred not to reveal his name, pointed out that "Al-Sadr's initiative is clear, but the problem lies in the possibility of independent deputies agreeing and forming one bloc of 40 deputies, and they are still divided and differing in their positions on the current crisis."[/size]
    [size=45]And he indicated that "there are major overlaps between the independent representatives that need to be overcome," noting that "the contacts started since yesterday night, and there will be efforts to hold deliberative meetings between the independent forces and individual representatives to discuss a consensual formula."[/size]
    [size=45]He stressed that "the independents want to be a party to solving the crisis and heading towards forming a government, and not to be a point of contention in the political equation."[/size]
    [size=45]At the same time, he wondered about the seriousness of the two parties to the crisis (Al-Sadr and Al-Touchaq) accepting that the government's candidacy proceeds by an independent figure.[/size]
    [size=45]This is taking place amid expectations of the complexity of the political scene in the country, and Kurdistan Democratic Party MP Majid Shankali said, in a tweet on “Twitter”: “The summary of the political scene is an initiative and a counter initiative. “.[/size]
    [size=45]The importance of the independent representatives, who number more than 40, is that they are a party that may favor one of the parties to the political crisis in Iraq, but there is nevertheless a sharp division among them regarding attending the parliament session to nominate the president and complete its quorum or boycott it.[/size]
    [size=45]Some independent parliamentarians do not accept to turn to supplement numbers and put forward a different vision of the current crisis by naming an independent prime minister, amid the continued efforts of the axes of the conflict, the “Save a Homeland” coalition and the “Coordination Framework” coalition, to gain their support. Their presence in Parliament became crucial after the decision of the Federal Supreme Court, which stipulated that choosing the President of the Republic is valid only through the vote of two-thirds of the number of parliamentarians, i.e. 220 deputies, something that neither of the two axes could achieve without the votes of independents.[/size]
