Al-Abadi: Al-Sudani’s visit to Washington is in the interest of Iraq, 24 MARCH

   Al-Abadi: Al-Sudani’s visit to Washington is in the interest of Iraq

The head of the Victory Coalition, Haider al-Abadi, stressed the importance of the visit of Prime Minister Muhammad Shia al-Sudani to Washington in the middle of next month at the invitation of US President Joe Biden.

Al-Abadi said in a {special interview} on Al-Furat satellite channel: “The Prime Minister’s visit to Washington is in the interest of Iraq,” stressing “the necessity of reorganizing the relationship with the international coalition.”

Regarding the Kurdistan Democratic Party’s announcement of its boycott of the Kurdistan Regional Parliament elections next June due to its objection to the decisions of the Federal Supreme Court, Al-Abadi said, “The party’s positions must be clear regarding the decision to boycott the elections,” stressing that “ the party’s withdrawal from the elections does not hinder them in the region from a formal standpoint, but Can a Democrat abandon the regional government?

Regarding the position of presidency of the House of Representatives remaining vacant, Al-Abadi affirmed, “This obstruction is not correct,” indicating that “the dispute is confined to the Sunni political forces, and we tend toward the option of deciding the position within the House of Representatives, and it does not necessarily belong to the largest Sunni bloc.”
He added, "A large majority of representatives may vote in favor of candidate Salem Al-Issawi."

Al-Abadi said, "The United Nations Mission in Iraq (UNAMI) is not strong and is not a decision-maker, but closing UN and international missions is not a good thing, and the Iraqi government is not moving toward that.  link
