Coordination Framework: Two Steps Ahead For The Success Of Al-Sudani’s Mission To Form The Government
Posted On2022-10-02 By Sotaliraq Baghdad/ Firas Adnan
The coordinating framework forces claim that the road is clear for them to form the next government, but they stated that moving towards that depends on two things. The first is the Kurds’ agreement on one candidate for the position of President of the Republic, and the second is knowing the final position of the Sadrist movement from participating in this government.
On the other hand, the Kurdistan Democratic Party spoke about the continuation of dialogues regarding the position of the President of the Republic, revealing what was included in his paper in coordination with the Sovereignty Bloc that he presented in exchange for his participation in the State Administration Alliance, but observers ruled out efforts to form a government by the coordination framework, pointing to the continuation of the Sadrist movement in Using his means to pressure the political forces to implement the people’s demands represented in dissolving parliament and going to early elections.
Kazem Ali, a member of the State of Law coalition, says that “the road has become paved in front of the coordinating framework for forming the next government.”
Ali continued, “Everyone is faced with two things: the first is the agreement of the Kurdish forces, the Kurdistan Democratic Party and the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan, on one candidate for the position of President of the Republic, and the second is the agreement with the Sadrist movement, and we are still waiting for his position on participating in the government.”
He pointed out, “The Sadrist movement is sticking to the present time by closing the door of dialogues, but the coordinating framework is outstretched until the last moment, and we will remain on our position as long as we have the desire for everyone’s participation.”
Ali finds, “The Kurdish parties are slow in deciding their candidate for the position of President of the Republic, and this may be intentional, with contradictory statements. Sometimes statements are issued that they are ready to announce the candidate as soon as the date of the election session is set, and other times these positions are blown up by emphasizing the continuation of disagreement and disagreement.”
He noted that “the coordination framework and the Sovereignty Bloc will not wait indefinitely, and the file of the President of the Republic must end. If the two Kurdish parties do not agree on a unified candidate, they can enter the election session each with their candidate, as happened in 2018.”
[size=45]Ali added, “The coordination framework is ready to form a government, and his candidate, Muhammad Shiaa al-Sudani, has an important program for reforming the situation in general, and it is accepted by all Kurdish and Shiite political parties, and we are left with nothing but the process of electing the president of the republic.”
For his part, Kurdistan Democratic Party MP Majid Shankali said, “Our dialogues with the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan are continuing regarding the position of President of the Republic, and the two parties have not issued any position that includes reaching a single candidate.”
Shankali continued, “The recent meetings between the leaders of the two parties show the existence of rapprochement and understanding, but we are waiting to reach a single candidate.”
He stressed, “The House of Representatives did not announce the date of its next session devoted to electing the president of the republic,” noting that “the two Kurdish parties entered into an agreement of the state administration alliance, and this means that the next period will witness a resolution of the dispute over the position of the president of the republic.”
Shankali explained, “Our entry into the state administration alliance with the coordination framework and the Sunni forces was based on a Kurdish paper that includes the legislation of the oil and gas law, the legislation of the Federal Supreme Court law, the implementation of Article 140 of the constitution, the payment of the dues of the pemshark, and the return of the headquarters of the Kurdish parties to what they were in Diyala, Kirkuk and others from the provinces.
He spoke about “other demands agreed upon with the Sovereignty Bloc, most notably the exit of the Popular Mobilization Forces from within the cities and leaving the task of extending security to the police forces and bringing balance to all institutions, including the security forces.”
Shankali stressed, “The Kurdish and Sunni parties have taken pledges from the coordination framework to implement the requests, but confidence-building is generated through actions.”
He believed, “Previous governments were formed on the basis of such agreements and guarantees, but none of the agreements that were concluded were implemented.”
Shankali concluded, “The current reality is different, everyone is in danger, and all parliamentary forces have become involved in the process of forming the government, and this requires the parties to the political dispute to fulfill their obligations to keep the danger away from the entire political process.”
In addition, he ruled out political expert Manaf al-Moussawi, «the desire of the Sadrist movement to enter into negotiations to form a government».
Moussawi said, “The Sadrists do not want to go back, and their deputies submitted their resignations of their own volition and left the idea of being in Parliament during the current stage.”
He pointed out that “the leader of the Sadrist movement, Muqtada al-Sadr, transferred the political reform process to the grassroots by calling for early elections.”
Al-Moussawi stated, “The Sadrists’ exit from parliament is the end of the political process,” stressing that “the parliament’s ability to hold one session devoted to renewing confidence in Muhammad al-Halbousi as president and electing Mohsen al-Mandulai as his first deputy does not mean ending the blockage.”
And he indicated, “The position of the Sadrists today comes through supporting the peaceful popular demonstrations that want to pressure the political forces in order to implement the demands to dissolve parliament and go to early elections.”
Al-Moussawi continued by saying, “Going to early elections should not be through a government formed by the coordination framework, because this will generate doubts about the results that will result from any electoral process in the future.”
Last weekend, Parliament held its first session after a disruption that lasted for more than three months, during which it voted to renew confidence in Muhammad al-Halbousi as Speaker of the Council based on an agreement with the coordinating framework. LINK
