KaseyKo1: Just received the following tweet from the office of Sheikh Qais Khazali ; Secretary-General of Asa’ib Ahl al-Haq ; Head of Parliamentary Bloc: “We promise the poor that they will have priority within the govt programs that we will implement in the next stage.”
Annie68: With Maliki running the show? He’s the reason they didn’t have anything before!
KaseyKo1: With the UN stepping in, things will chg to a certain extent as to what Maliki will be able to get away with, in my opinion anyway. He will not be able to stop the RI/RV like he has in the past. There’s no way the UN will allow that to happen. I’m waiting to see if Sadr does something on the 25th with the protests….I think we need to also keep in mind that there has been a lot of splintering within the Framework alliance & we don’t really know with a full certainty who the dissenters are. There may be a reason why they want Malilki thinking he has great importance in the govt. We’ll find out soon enough I suspect.
Yada: Agreed Kaseyko, he is not running the show as much as other think. The structure Kazimi left behind causes Maliki to lose much of his influence.
Yada: I was excited before and after the call. Kazimi left a government such whom ever take over, will not be able to alter it much. Its just the formalities of getting the government people in place. They want to be in charge of what is about to be released
KaseyKo1: This seating of the full govt may be something the UN has required of Iraq before the release of the new rate. REMEMBER: Stability.

CandyKisses: Al-Sudani presents his booth to Parliament on Thursday.. And the Kurds decide their ministries
{Political: Al Furat News} Two members of the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan and the Kurdistan Democratic Party revealed that the Prime Minister-designate, Muhammad Shia Al-Sudani, will present his government cabinet to the House of Representatives.
A member of the Democratic Party, Haitham Al-Mayahi, told the program (Al-Mastra) broadcast by Al-Furat satellite channel this evening: “It is too early to talk about the quotas of the ministries, and next Thursday Al-Sudani will present his booth, and a number of sovereign ministries remain unresolved and the session is in order to pass the government.”
He pointed out that “the Democrat is negotiating with the Ministries of Justice, Housing and Foreign Affairs, and another ministry may increase for the Kurdish component,” noting that “there is an intention to form a parliamentary committee to monitor government performance.”
He added, “There is sufficient freedom for the Sudanese to form his government, and he will present five candidates for each ministry and they will be agreed upon. Perhaps the Sudanese will be the one who will choose without a political nomination, and this is a decision by the State Administration Coalition.”
He revealed “the desire of some ministers in Mustafa Al-Kazemi’s government to remain in their positions, but we exclude that,” noting that “there are very serious corruption files related to the October demonstrations and military and security files.”
Al-Mayahi stressed, “The Sudanese have relations with all forces, and we expect that his government will last for four years if he implements his government program within a year.
For his part, the leader of the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan, Mahmoud Khoshnaw, said in today’s episode (Alastra) that “the Kurds will get 4 ministries, which may be divided equally between the Patriotic Union and the Democratic Party, or the latter may get three of them.”
He added that “six ministries will be for the Sunni component, 12 ministries for the Shiite component, 12 for the Shiites, and one ministry for Christians. These leaks remain close to the truth.”
And he indicated that the ministries of “foreign, finance and justice, which are sovereign ministries, will decide two of them for the Kurds, and perhaps water resources, justice and health have been obtained by the Kurds as well,” adding that it is likely “the creation of some positions to satisfy national components.”
Khoshnaw stressed, “There should be no return to quotas in the Sudanese government, and all forces are obliged to support it, and there is no choice but for the two Kurdish parties to go to dialogue to solve the outstanding problems between them.”
The Kurdish leader promised, “The Sudanese government is the last chance for the political system, and the failure does not affect the Sudanese personally, but rather the political system. The stage is very critical and sensitive.”
