[size=52]The coordination framework fails to determine the session for selecting the president of the republic and refuses to “public dialogue”[/size]

[size=45]Baghdad / Tamim Al-Hassan[/size]
[size=45]Contrary to what is being promoted by parties within the coordination framework, a Shiite leader denied the existence of an upcoming session to elect the president of the republic.[/size]
[size=45]On the other hand, Muqtada al-Sadr, the leader of the Sadrist movement, refused to form a government in response to the briefing of the United Nations representative in Iraq, Jenin Plasschaert, before the Security Council.[/size]
[size=45]Accordingly, it seems that the path to forming a government is going through difficult bumps, especially with the indications of an escalation of violence and what happened during the last two days of armed conflict in the south.[/size]
[size=45]So far, the framework and its allies that leaked at the end of last month, what became known as the "state administration coalition", have not been able to release the name in public.[/size]
[size=45]And the day before yesterday, Plasschaert said in her last briefing to the Security Council that any "Iraqi leader" can drag the country into a "protracted and fatal conflict."[/size]
[size=45]According to sources from Dhi Qar, the outcome of the "masked" attack at dawn Tuesday on the governorate building in the latest political conflict in the south, caused the injury of about 70 civilians and soldiers.[/size]
[size=45]The local authorities there also revealed that more than 50 people were involved in the attack, half of whom have been arrested so far.[/size]
[size=45]Observers interpret what is happening in the south of the country as a temporary transfer of the armed conflict from Baghdad - following the Green Zone clashes at the end of last August - to the strongholds of the competitors in the provinces.[/size]
[size=45]Despite the return of calm in Dhi Qar and Basra after a night in which rockets were fired and government buildings were burned, the conflict could renew at any moment, especially since clans were involved in the conflict.[/size]
[size=45]Where the latest information from Basra, which witnessed, hours before the events of Nasiriyah (the center of Dhi Qar governorate), the firing of 3 missiles at the main headquarters of the crowd near the Shatt al-Arab, that tribes participated in the attacks against the background of a previous revenge by killing their sons at the hands of factions.[/size]
[size=45]On the other hand, opinions in Basra speak of an "artificial involvement" of clans in these conflicts, which are mainly driven by political competition and the revenues of the oil-rich province.[/size]
[size=45]In the meantime, the coordination framework tried to precede any future scenarios that might complicate his plan to proceed with the formation of the government, and he started talking about setting a date soon for the presidential election session.[/size]
[size=45]But Muin Al-Kazemi, a leader in the Badr Organization led by Hadi Al-Amiri, denied in an interview with (Al-Mada) that "there will be any date that has been set for that session."[/size]
[size=45]The moment of choosing the president of the republic is crucial on the way to forming the government, as the elected president, according to the constitution, assigns the candidate of the largest bloc to present the cabinet within a month.[/size]
[size=45]And on how to reach that session, Muin Al-Kazemi, a deputy from the coordination framework, confirmed that "it is up to the Kurdish forces' agreement on one candidate, and so far there is no agreement."[/size]
[size=45]On the other hand, there is talk behind closed doors that the problem is not related to the Kurdish forces, but rather to the "framework's" reluctance to resolve its issue due to the absence of al-Sadr.[/size]
[size=45]Although the coordination framework had spoken more than a week ago about his new coalition (the State Administration), which includes all forces with the exception of al-Sadr, he has not officially launched it yet.[/size]
[size=45]The hesitation of the "framework" is now justified, as the leader of the Sadrist movement has returned from his political silence, and criticized the day before yesterday's words about Plasschaert about forming a government.[/size]
[size=45]Al-Sadr said in a tweet on Tuesday evening: "I stand against the insistence of some members of the Security Council to form a government in Iraq. Many governments have been formed, but they have harmed the country and the people."[/size]
[size=45]Al-Sadr added, “The people’s aspirations are to form a government that is far from corruption, dependency, militias, and foreign interference, in order to be an independent and stable government that serves its people, not the interests of its parties and sects. Everyone brings fire to his party, sect, or race.”[/size]
[size=45]Moreover, there are leaks about the readiness of al-Sadr's followers to take to the street again in the event the "framework" decides to hold a session to form a government.[/size]
[size=45]Also, a resigned Sadrist deputy had threatened the political forces a few days ago, with what he considered the "last fight" in the presidential election session.[/size]
[size=45]Representative Haider Abdul Karim al-Muhammadawi said on his Facebook page that "the session for selecting the president of the republic and assigning the prime minister will be the 'last fight'."[/size]
[size=45]Despite this, the coordination framework still hopes to obtain a meeting with Al-Sadr, but it has not happened so far.[/size]
[size=45]In Al-Sadr's response to the United Nations representative in Iraq, the leader of the movement agreed to the dialogue, but stipulated that it be "public", a condition he had revealed more than a month ago, following similar calls for dialogue.[/size]
[size=45]So far, the Shiite forces have not responded to al-Sadr's requirement, and Muin al-Kazemi says that "public dialogue can cause tension in the street and lead to the opposite effect."[/size]
[size=45]During the briefing, Blackshart said: “There are still very realistic risks of further strife and bloodshed, we can only reiterate the importance of keeping any protest away from violence. All parties must act responsibly in times of heightened tension.”[/size]
[size=45]Plasschaert urged the need for all Iraqi parties to participate in the dialogue, and said, "In order for the dialogue to bear fruit, it is very important that all parties participate in it. There are solutions, but only if there is a willingness to reach settlements. In the end, it is all up to the political will." ».[/size]
