[size=45]Yesterday, Wednesday, a meeting held at the government palace ended with the Sadrist movement calling for a national dialogue on the political crisis, avoiding escalation, and hinting at an agreement to hold early elections.[/size]
[size=45]A government statement received by Al-Mada stated that "the presidencies met with the leaders of the Iraqi national political forces at the invitation of Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kazemi, yesterday; To discuss political developments in the country, in the presence of the representative of the Secretary-General of the United Nations in Iraq.[/size]
[size=45]The statement added, "The participants expressed their commitment to national constants, and to finding a solution to all crises through dialogue and by adopting a spirit of brotherhood and synergy; In order to preserve the unity of Iraq and the security and stability of its people, and the permanence of the constitutional democratic system to which everyone appeals, emphasizing the supremacy of the supreme national interests, and showing a spirit of solidarity among the people of the one nation; to address the current political crisis.[/size]
[size=45]He pointed out that the conferees affirmed that "recourse to the polls again through early elections is not an exceptional event in the history of democratic experiences when political crises reach dead ends, and that national political forces resort to constitutional tracks in the elections."[/size]
[size=45]The statement called, "The Sadrist movement to engage in the national dialogue, to put in place mechanisms for a comprehensive solution to serve the aspirations of the Iraqi people and achieve their goals."[/size]
[size=45]He pointed to the agreement on “the continuation of the national dialogue; In order to develop a legal and constitutional road map to address the current crisis.”[/size]
[size=45]The statement went on to "stop all forms of field, media, or political escalation, stressing the need to protect state institutions and return to calm discussions away from provocations and provocations that would provoke strife." They appealed to the media and elites to support the path of national dialogue and social peace, to serve the interests of our people.[/size]
[size=45]For his part, political researcher Manaf al-Moussawi said, "The political dialogue needs introductions from the parties for its success, especially since it came after demonstrations that turned into sit-ins in front of the House of Representatives, subject to increase."[/size]
[size=45]Al-Moussawi added, "The dialogue had to have preludes, and all messages were not positive, and the coordination framework is still insisting on forming the government after the parliament session and the unacceptable issues."[/size]
[size=45]He pointed out, "Having any meeting without the presence of the Sadrist movement is meaningless," stressing that the current political crisis has at least two parties, namely the demonstrators and the coordination framework that insists on implementing mechanisms rejected by the street by forming a consensus government and insisting on quotas.[/size]
[size=45]Al-Moussawi explained, "The main factor for any dialogue without a representative of the leader of the Sadrist movement, Muqtada al-Sadr, will be missing, and this is clear to everyone," stressing that "the Sadrist movement has withdrawn from the street and taken the street as a place to implement its reform and change project."[/size]
[size=45]And he indicated, "The coordinating framework has not, so far, submitted any messages about its intention to bring about a change to either the Sadrist movement or the demonstrators."[/size]
[size=45]Al-Moussawi stated, "The beginning of the solution is through an agreement to dissolve parliament and set a date for early elections, after which there can be developments at the level of dialogues."[/size]
[size=45]He noted that “everyone started talking about accepting the demonstrators’ request, but the dispute over the implementation mechanism, is it reasonable to bring in a government affiliated with a certain political bloc that is preparing for the elections? I don't think anyone will reassure her.[/size]
[size=45]Al-Moussawi went on to say that "the insistence on forming a government, if it wants to convince the two parties, should be built on the basis of an independent government capable of providing an attractive environment for voters and capable of holding transparent elections."[/size]
