He pointed out that al-Sadr's withdrawal from Parliament placed the current prime minister Mustafa Al-Kazemi His government and Sadr's political and parliamentary partners are in a very difficult position. He added that Sadr's opponents believe that Russia's war on Ukraine has changed many things, and that the United States and Europe need oil

Iraq.

Where Is Iraq Heading?

The analysis stated that despite the many changes in Iraq, the main problem remains, which is an imbalance of power, unwillingness to accept the other, and limited efforts to implement what has already been agreed upon.

He added that the political class is separated from the suffering of the public and behaves indifferently, while Iran, Turkey and other countries enjoy the influence of a strong competitor in Iraq, and the current crisis gives a greater opportunity to expand this influence, adding that internal problems provide space for others to exercise their influence.

According to the analysis, Iraq's problems can be solved or mitigated if the Iraqis work better with each other, as he saw that Iraq remains important to the stability of the region and the national security interests of regional and global powers.

He went on to say; The country possesses many elements needed for positive change, but still lacks a catalyst to harness these elements

. He added that there are efforts to break the current political crisis, but the deep political impasse in Iraq will not be moved any time soon.

He concluded by saying: "Real change can happen if the political process becomes more expressive of the will of Iraqis, more than 60 percent of whom did not vote in the 2021 elections, and did not agree with the political class."   LINK
