[size=52]Observers: Early elections are inevitable... and the blocs were convinced to resort to them[/size]

[size=45]Baghdad/ Firas Adnan[/size]
[size=45]Observers reported that the political blocs have reached a full conviction that the solution to the political crisis is through early elections, and described this solution as decisive, but they talked about some differences related to some conditions, such as making amendments to the electoral laws.[/size]
[size=45]And the scope of talk about early elections expanded, especially after most of the political blocs joined this option with some conditions, such as forming an interim government or making legal amendments or making pledges to respect the results.[/size]
[size=45]Professor of Law at the University of Maysan Majid Mijbas said, "The call of the Sadrist movement's leader Muqtada al-Sadr to his partners in the Alliance to Save a Nation, namely the Sovereignty Bloc and the Kurdistan Democratic Party, to dissolve parliament does not constitute a legal violation."[/size]
[size=45]Mejbas added, "The alliance between the three parties from a political point of view is still ongoing, and we have not heard of its end, directly or indirectly."[/size]
[size=45]He pointed out that "what was stated in al-Sadr's tweet comes within the framework of consultations regarding the future steps that this coalition deems to be in order to take the appropriate ones."[/size]
[size=45]Mijbas explained, "If Sadr's partners are on their former alliance, I think that his call must be met by agreement and understanding on a specific formula to get out of the current crisis."[/size]
[size=45]And he indicated, "If the alliance ends, the parties, especially the Sovereignty Bloc and the Kurdistan Democratic Party, must officially declare this, and inform the Iraqi street and the Sadrist bloc of their position, and then move towards the constitutional benefits."[/size]
[size=45]Mijbas stressed that “the law was suspended due to the reality that imposed itself on the law,” noting that “the Iraqi legal system is devoid of any reference to the parliament being dissolved on its own just because of the resignation of a number of its members, whether the Sadrists or their partners in the National Salvation Alliance.” .[/size]
[size=45]He continues, "The dissolution of Parliament is governed by Article 64 of the Constitution, through two paths. The first is through the executive authority, which is currently in the discharge of daily tasks and cannot exercise this competence, and the second is the self-dissolution, that Parliament dissolves itself."[/size]
[size=45]Mejbas stressed, "Al-Sadr's partners can submit a request to dissolve parliament, with confirmation that the Federal Supreme Court had previously confirmed the necessity of making amendments to the House of Representatives law regarding electronic counting and converting it to manual."[/size]
[size=45]But he believes, "If Parliament dissolved itself without making amendments to the electoral law or its commission, there is no problem, but its responsibility may move because it did not implement the decision of the Federal Supreme Court on these amendments."[/size]
[size=45]Mijbas concluded, “The resignation of the representatives, whether from the Sovereignty Bloc or the Kurdistan Democratic Party, no matter how many they are, there are replacements for them according to the law, and the House of Representatives will not dissolve on its own, no matter how many resign.”[/size]
[size=45]For his part, political expert Ahmed al-Yasiri stated that "each of the two sides of the political crisis, the Sadrist movement or the coordination framework, proceeded with its project to break the will of the other party, which is very difficult."[/size]
[size=45]Al-Yasiri continued, "The solution may begin by presenting the coordination framework with another candidate for the position of Prime Minister instead of Muhammad Shia Al-Sawadni, provided that this candidate is independent and does not provoke the Sadrist movement in order to reduce the congestion."[/size]
[size=45]He pointed out that "holding a new session of Parliament will only result in a decision to dissolve it, as it is the best option agreed upon by the blocs, but each according to its conditions."[/size]
[size=45]Al-Yasiri explained that "the coordinating framework has an implicit desire to dissolve parliament in its desire to end the state of tension between the various political forces."[/size]
[size=45]He stressed, "The conditions of the framework relate to changing the electoral system so that the results do not come out in the way they came in the last elections, and this matter will provoke the Sadrist movement as well."[/size]
[size=45]Al-Yasiri called on "the political forces to realize the fact that the danger of the street is coming, by the departure of parties outside the political process, represented by the Tishreen forces and other left-wing parties to demand a correction of the course."[/size]
[size=45]He stated, "Resorting to the ballot boxes is the decisive option to end all these disputes, as it is the only peaceful way that guarantees changes in the political scene."[/size]
[size=45]Al-Yasiri concluded that “reaching the same results as the previous ones, which some political forces fear, does not mean the end. Rather, it is possible to go to third elections, and this is normal in democratic systems, because we are facing a crisis that the political blocs are looking for, in any way, for the appropriate solution.”[/size]
[size=45]Iraq had emerged from early elections held in October of last year and resulted in results that led to a great difference within the Shiite house, after the desire of the Sadrist movement, which is the first winner, to form a political majority government.[/size]
