Almost 40 days have passed since the House of Representatives was suspended for its legislative term, without holding any session, despite the country going through a cycle of crises, most notably the bombing of a number of Popular Mobilization sites in different areas.

According to deputies, the eyes are on the dome of parliament next week to hold its first session after the end of the second legislative term, amid the contention of political differences on many files, most notably the resolution of the portfolio of the Ministry of Education, which is still pending in the inclusion of the government.

• What the Parliament will do about the crowd file

The file of bombing the headquarters of the Popular Mobilization, one of the most important issues that the people are expected to resolve by the House of Representatives, and take a unified position shows the cohesion of all political forces towards the popular mobilization.

While the MP of the Alliance of Fath Fadhil al-Fatlawi, said that the House of Representatives will discuss the decision of military response against the Zionist entity for its involvement in the targeting of popular mobilization sites in a number of provinces of the country.

Al-Fatlawi pointed out in a press statement that “the first sessions of the first legislative term of the second legislative year will be devoted to discuss the repeated attacks of the Zionist entity against the Popular Mobilization sites,” pointing out that “Parliament is determined to discuss the decision of the military response towards the Zionist entity to deter its targets and breach of Iraqi sovereignty.”

In the meantime, the leader of the Popular Mobilization Moeen Kazimi, a message to the blocs and political parties, with the imminent return of the Iraqi Council of Representatives meetings, on the foreign presence.

Al-Kazemi said in a statement that “all blocs and political parties should adopt a position on the removal of US forces, considering that the experience of the sacred defense proved that the Iraqis liberated the territory from ISIS terrorist gangs, and there is no need for the survival of any foreign channels in the country.”

He warned the leader of the Popular Mobilization, “the survival of US forces in Iraq leads to problems inside Iraq, as these forces do problems with the neighboring countries of the country, as the survival of these forces significantly affect the security situation currently stable.” According to him.

He says MP from the current wisdom, opposition Hassan Masoudi, “The dismissal of the current Prime Minister Adel Abdul Mahdi, subject to what will happen within the first sessions of the new legislative term of the House of Representatives.”

Al-Masoudi pointed out that “so far there is no real intention or political agreement to withdraw confidence from the current Prime Minister, and that the wisdom and some blocs handed the Prime Minister several observations on his government program, and the work of some ministers, and if he did not take any real reform measures in that, We will go towards his dismissal. ”
