Baghdad: Demonstrators in Tahrir Square said Friday that parliament is facing a final chance, and they must implement the demands of the detractors and not nominate a name to be accepted by the "uprising", while calling on the President of the Republic to use his powers and assign someone from outside the political blocs.
A statement issued by the "Youth of the Tishrin Uprising", and received a copy of "Iraq Today" today (December 27, 2019):
"There is no candidate other than those who are satisfied with the intifada"
It became a matter of firm, the blocs of corruption and quotas want to stay and reproduce themselves, and they have used all the means of pressure to be the prime minister within the limits of the abominable sectarian quotas.
Yes, she wants a candidate who is affiliated with her, his first task is to circumvent the demands of the intifada, and to resolve it, thus continuing looting, corruption, bureaucracy and quotas.
Therefore, we salute the position of the President of the Republic and support him in using his powers to implement article 18 constitutional and to assign someone outside the circle of corruption and its political blocs.
At the same time, we call on our rising youth, and their supporters, our struggling people, to remain in the protest arenas and to escalate the protest positions peacefully.
At the same time, we confirm that the last chance for the House of Representatives is nearing completion and they have to invest time and implement the demands of the detractors.
Our next step is the House of Representatives.

Baghdad- Iraq today: Kurdish mp Hoshyar Abdullah on Friday criticized president Barham Saleh's late decision to resign before parliament, asking why "parliament and the Federal Court have spent so much time in official correspondence and speeches."
"If the president of the republic has no intention of assigning someone from the larger bloc or from any parliamentary bloc, why did he open parliament and the Federal Court and waste so much time in official correspondence and speeches?" he said in a statement.
He added, "It should have been better from the beginning not to send an official book about the largest bloc, but to proceed with the nomination of a personal independent of a number of the political blocs that existed, especially those that formed the former government, and now it is necessary to form an interim independent government to prepare the ground for early elections."
The mp pointed out that "the one that Barham Saleh made is (reading) in which he expressed his willingness to resign, and he never sent his resignation to parliament as promoted in the media, and there is a big difference between the single (resignation) and (preparing to resign)", expressing surprise at "the prevailing misperception of Saleh's message and the rise of some The media is reporting that he has resigned." http://iraqtoday.com/news/34884/نائب-كردي-لصالح--كان-الأجدر-بك-ان-تختار-مرشحا-لا-أن-تهدر-الوقت-
