The Coordination Framework, which includes the Shiite forces forming the government of Mohammed Shia al-Sudani, is scheduled to hold an important meeting on Monday evening, with the attendance of all its leaders, in addition to the Prime Minister.
A leader in the framework told Shafaq News Agency, "The Coordination Framework will hold a meeting in an hour from now, in the presence of its leadership and the Prime Minister, to discuss a number of important topics and issues on the political scene."
The leader added, "The meeting of the framework leaders will discuss the issue of the position of the Speaker of the House of Representatives and agree to set a record date for holding the session to elect the president."
He explained that "the meeting will also discuss the file of forming local governments in the provinces of Diyala and Kirkuk, in addition to discussing with Al-Sudani the file of the Turkish incursion into Iraqi territory."
Despite the passage of more than 8 months, the Sunni political forces have not succeeded in agreeing on an alternative candidate for Parliament Speaker Mohammed al-Halbousi .
The parliament failed five times in a row to resolve the issue, in light of the division between the political parties in supporting one of the candidates for the position, namely Mahmoud Al-Mashhadani, the candidate of the Progress Party, and Salem Al-Issawi, the candidate of the Sunni parties (Sovereignty and the Azm and Al-Hasm alliances), who obtained the majority of votes during the last parliament session .
A few days ago, the Azm Alliance, led by Muthanna al-Samarrai, warned the Shiite forces against continuing to obstruct the election of the Parliament Speaker .
The leader of the coalition, Haider Al-Mulla, told Shafaq News Agency, "The talk about achieving a Sunni-Sunni consensus is an attempt to obstruct the election of the Speaker of the Council of Representatives. Throughout the life of the political process in Iraq, there has been no consensus or agreement on choosing any of the three presidencies." link
