Shafaq News/ The Prime Minister, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, Mustafa Al-Kazemi chaired today, Thursday, an expanded meeting that brought together the security leaders of the armed forces.

The meeting discussed the course of what happened during the demonstrations yesterday in the Green Zone, and the mechanism for protecting demonstrations to ensure that peaceful demonstrators are not attacked, according to a statement by his office.

Al-Kazemi stressed that the government is committed to its duty to maintain security, ensure social peace, and protect public and private institutions, and diplomatic missions.

The Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces reiterated that the security services perform their role in accordance with the law; To protect government institutions and international missions, and to prevent any attempt to disturb security and public order.

The meeting comes after a movement and calls within the Sadrist movement published on social media, threatening to storm the House of Representatives again if the coordination framework insists on the nomination of Muhammad Shia Al-Sudani for the position of prime minister, or a session of Parliament is held next week.

Yesterday, Wednesday, hundreds of al-Sadr’s supporters stormed the Iraqi parliament building in the Green Zone, in protest against the coordination framework’s move to form a government and push a candidate from the Dawa Party led by al-Maliki.

Al-Sadr had hinted on more than one occasion to stand in the way of forming a government in accordance with the principle of quotas adopted since 2003.

Al-Sadr withdrew from the political process, after months of tug-of-war with the coordination framework to form a government according to the majority principle, which he confronted in alliance with the Kurdistan Democratic Party and a Sunni political coalition that brought together Muhammad al-Halbousi and Khamis al-Khanjar.

 Shafaq News/ The head of the Sovereignty Alliance, Khamis al-Khanjar, informed the Shiite Coordinating Framework Alliance, on Thursday, that the Sovereignty’s deputies would not attend the next parliament session until after meeting a number of conditions.

Al-Khanjar said in a statement received by Shafaq News Agency, that the Sovereignty’s representatives will not attend the next session, unless a “binding agreement and an official signature on the paper of the Sovereignty Alliance, guaranteeing the rights and demands of its audience, as well as after agreeing with the Kurdistan Democratic Party and ensuring its political entitlements.”

He stressed the need to “find a comprehensive national understanding before entering into any details related to the shape of the next government or its entitlements,” stressing the importance of including “the coordination framework initiative real steps to demonstrate goodwill with everyone, and respect for the orientations of the Sadrist movement.”

The head of the Sovereignty Alliance, Khamis al-Khanjar, concluded his statement by noting that “the logic of exclusivity will only bring more instability and chaos to Iraq.”

A short while ago, the Presidency of the Iraqi Council of Representatives denied setting a date for the election session of the President of the Republic, stressing that what was published about setting it next Saturday is not true.

Some political blocs and deputies had announced in earlier times that next Saturday, the House of Representatives would hold a session to elect the President of the Republic, who in turn would ensure the largest parliamentary bloc to form the government.

Earlier today, a leading source in the coordination framework that includes Shiite forces except for the Sadrist movement told Shafaq News Agency; “There is fear among the leadership of the coordination framework of holding a session to elect the president of the republic and assigning the framework candidate, Muhammad Shiaa al-Sudani, to form the government, for fear of storming the parliament by supporters of the Sadrist movement, as happened yesterday, Wednesday.”

MOHAMMED AL-SUDANI SAYS HE WILL NOT WITHDRAW HIS NOMINATION FOR POST OF PRIME MINISTER OF IRAQ

SULAIMANI — The Coordination Framework’s candidate for the position of prime minister of Iraq, Mohammed Shia al-Sudani, said on Thursday (July 28) he will not withdraw his nomination and stated it was his responsibility to save the nation.

Supporters of Shia cleric Muqtada al-Sadr entered Baghdad’s highly fortified Green Zone and into the parliament building on Wednesday in protest against the nomination of Sudani. 

Faris al-Faris, one of the leaders of the Azim Alliance, confirmed his party’s support for Sudani amid the demands for his withdrawal. 

“We support him because he succeeded in his previous duties,” Faris said. “We think his experience in running the government will be positive.”

The Sunni Muslim Azim Alliance discussed with the pro-Iran Coordination Framework ways to get past the political deadlock in the Iraqi parliament earlier this year. 

The pro-Iran Coordination Framework nominated Sudani as their candidate for prime minister on Monday following the withdrawal of the Sadrist Movement from parliament last month.

Residents of Baghdad and Sadr’s supporters said Sudani had several positions in government in the past and had not served the citizens of Iraq. Sudani had previously served as the governor of Maysan governorate and as the head of a number of ministries under former Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi.

A security source told local media that Green Zone’s security is now stable following the protests on Wednesday. The source said all gates to the area were open to the public.
