The coordination framework extends the "48-hour deadline" to resolve the name of the Prime Minister due to the return of differences
Posted On2022-07-19 By Sotaliraq Baghdad / Tamim Al-Hassan Nuri al-Maliki, the leader of the state of law, returned to turn the "negotiating table" within the coordination framework because of his insistence on a third government term.
During the past 48 hours, al-Maliki was removed from the stock exchange of candidates to head the next government, after almost agreement on choosing a personality from the "second line".
Al-Maliki's "coup" brought the discussions within the "Coordination Committee" back to the beginning, as the number of candidates for the position increased to about 10 people, including two leaders.
And on Sunday evening, the coordinating framework had gone a long way in filtering the names, and it reached 5 candidates, then to three, and later gave preference to only two, including the current prime minister.
According to informed sources, I spoke to (the term), "Al-Maliki is trying hard to remain in the race for the position of prime minister by changing the voting mechanism within the framework."
There is ambiguity about the method of voting within the coordination framework on decisions, especially regarding the form of the government and the next prime minister.
The Shiite group had announced earlier that it had formed a "seven" committee to resolve decisions within the "Coordination Committee", but this committee has not worked so far due to differences.
Before the recent developments in the "coordination" discussions, most of the forces within the Shiite bloc had agreed (on Sunday evening) that the seven parties vote for the prime minister's candidate.
According to the sources, "there is incompatibility between the seven parties (the Seven Body) with the withdrawal and return of Hadi al-Amiri, the leader of Al-Fateh, to meetings, and Haider al-Abadi, the leader of victory, became angry more than once."
According to that, "Al-Maliki" wants to put the vote on the next prime minister's candidate in the General Assembly of the "coordinating framework", which includes all Shiite MPs, even those outside the "framework".
The leader of the state of law is counting on the number of his seats, about 40, in addition to supporters from deputies from other parties inside and outside the coordination framework.
Commenting on what is happening within the coordinating framework, the deputy of the group, Ali Shaddad, told Al-Mada that "the name of the prime minister has not been resolved so far due to the lack of agreement within the forces forming the framework."
Shaddad revealed that "there is a desire among the first line (they are the leaders) in the coordinating framework to run for the position along with the second line."
Al-Attar's deputy confirmed that "there are efforts made by the leaders of wisdom, Ammar al-Hakim and Asa'ib Qais al-Khazali, to choose an acceptable and non-controversial figure.
Al-Maliki is considered among the "frameworkers" as a controversial figure, especially with Ali Fadel, the activist and journalist, continuing to broadcast what has become known as "Al-Maliki's leaks."
Fadel vowed yesterday that he will broadcast a new part, the fifth in the series of recordings, and revealed features of what the new leak contains, indicating that it will be an attack by "Al-Maliki" against "Abu Zainab al-Lami", who is the head of the security forces of the crowd.
The recent leaks, which al-Maliki denied for the second time in less than a week, had prompted the latter's relatives, such as MP Yasser Sakhel al-Maliki, to hint that the leader of the Sadrist movement, Muqtada al-Sadr, was behind these recordings without explicitly mentioning his name.
Sakhil al-Maliki said in a tweet on "Twitter" that he deleted it after that, "Whatever you fabricated and conspired as you did yesterday, there is no renewal or allegiance to you," in a reference that I understood to be the leader of the Sadrist movement.
And the deputy added: "We warn you against re-igniting the fuse of sedition, and say goodbye in peace and save what is left of your face."
In turn, the State of Law representative, Alia Nassif, considered that these recordings are behind a force - she did not reveal her name - that does not want Al-Maliki's success.
Nassif said in a television interview, "Al-Maliki is still the candidate of the State of Law coalition for the post of prime minister, and he has no personal desire for the position."
She added: "The leaks that spread were intended to target personal and cause sedition and our strength, and did not weaken us."
In a tweet on "Twitter", the leader of State of Law again denied these recordings, and said that the crowd and its leaders are "the great hope," adding, "All counterfeiting and fabrication operations will not affect our relationship with the sons of the armed forces and the popular crowd."
In the latest leak, a voice attributed to "Al-Maliki" appeared describing the crowd as "a nation of cowards", and also threatened a "cruel war", threatening to attack "Al-Sadr" and the city of Najaf, and arm 15 groups.
Last Thursday, after the publication of the first leak, al-Maliki and his office denied the words that came in the entry, and considered them "falsification" and "a combination of modern technologies."
At that time, the leader of the Sadrist movement asked his supporters not to be indifferent to the recording, and he said in a tweet at the time: "Do not care about the leaks, we do not give him weight," without explicitly mentioning Al-Maliki's name.
Al-Maliki triggers a new crisis
On the other hand, "Al-Maliki's insistence" on taking power for the third time causes a shuffling of cards within the "coordinating framework", an increase in the number of candidates and the return of Shiite leaders to the race.
According to the leaks, Hadi al-Amiri's return to the competition a few days after his withdrawal, "is not serious insofar as he returned to prevent al-Maliki from obtaining a third term."
Likewise, Haider al-Abadi returned after the first row options were excluded from the candidacy, and other names were added, such as Asaad al-Eidani, Governor of Basra, Nassif al-Khattabi, Governor of Karbala, and former Minister of Sports Abdul-Hussein Abtan.
And the leaks before the “al-Maliki coup” had revealed the rise in the shares of Mustafa Al-Kazemi, the current prime minister, in the candidate’s stock exchange, especially with the success of the recent Jeddah conference, and his good relationship with the leader of the Sadrist movement Muqtada al-Sadr, as the “framework” is still afraid to choose a character that “provokes al-Sadr.” ».
Al-Kazemi is competing with Muhammad Al-Ghabban, the former Minister of Interior and a member of the Badr Organization, and to a lesser extent is competing with Muhammad Shia Al-Sudani, the former Minister of Human Rights and the current deputy (head of the Euphrates Movement).
On the other hand, the fortunes of the current and leading National Security Adviser in Badr Qassem al-Araji have declined, as has the former Minister of Planning, Ali Shukri.
According to "tweets" of leaders in the "coordination framework", the group is supposed to finish the selection process, on Monday, and submit the name of the prime minister.
However, according to a prominent member and key negotiator within the "framework", he confirmed to Al-Mada that "the coordination framework is committed to the 48-hour deadline, but it may advance by several hours or add another day."
The prominent member of the Coordination, who asked not to be named, stressed that "the announcement of the deadline was in agreement with the coordinating framework," noting that "the negotiations are taking place in the right direction and the name of the new prime minister will be announced soon."
