Shiite framework meets to discuss Baghdad summit agenda and ‘retirement age’ of PMF chief, 18 FEB

 Shiite framework meets to discuss Baghdad summit agenda and ‘retirement age’ of PMF chief

Shafaq News/ Informed sources revealed on Monday that a meeting of the leaders of the Coordination Framework is expected at the home of Hadi al-Amiri, leader of the Badr Organization, to complete the agreement on the Popular Mobilization Law and discuss several files.

The sources he spoke to told Shafaq News Agency that “the meeting will discuss the files to be presented in the summit meetings that will be held in Baghdad, in addition to discussing the results of the Prime Minister’s visit to the Munich Conference and the security and economic threats existing in the region.”

The sources explained that “the upcoming meeting will discuss the controversial paragraph in the Popular Mobilization Law and find the most appropriate solution to overcome it in a manner consistent with the importance of the law.”

The sources indicated that “most of the framework forces believe that the job age of the head of the Popular Mobilization Authority should not be determined by a specific number, meaning that it is not linked to a specific job age as is the case in the general job system in the country.”

The sources indicated the possibility of some of the framework forces boycotting the parliament sessions until the law is amended.

Earlier today, Monday, the Iraqi Parliament Presidency decided to withdraw the agenda of the session and cancel its convening after the arrival of the head of the Badr Organization, Hadi al-Amiri, to the parliament building.
