Newspaper reveals 8 candidates for the premiership were subject to the conditions of Sistani



September 14, 2018

Baghdad - Journal News

The London-based Al-Hayat newspaper on Friday revealed eight candidates for the presidency of the next government, subject to the conditions set by the supreme religious authority in Najaf.

"The Iraqi political parties are racing to resolve the names of the candidates nominated to fill the three presidencies (the republic, the parliament and the government) before holding the parliamentary session scheduled tomorrow."

"There have been assurances that the Shiite forces will soon decide to choose a consensus candidate from outside the political parties to take over the post of prime minister.

"Today will be decisive in the agreement of the main Shiite forces in Iraq on a compromise candidate for the post of prime minister from outside the parties. The names of the eight candidates were subject to the terms of reference that they put forward on the candidate for the post, including the former oil minister and the withdrawn leader of the Supreme Islamic Council Adel Abdul Mahdi, the head of intelligence Mustafa al-Kazemi, Abdul Wahab al-Saadi (one of the leaders of the counter-terrorism), and the governor of Basra, , The national security adviser Faleh al-Fayadh, the leader of al-Fath al-Shukri, the former spokesman of Jaafari's government Laith Kubba, and former minister Ali Allawi.

Sources told the newspaper that most of the names were removed because they did not match the conditions of Mr. Sistani, which stipulates the independence of the candidate from the parties, and to be efficient, courageous and firm in managing the files of the state and fighting corruption. The sources pointed out that the decision today will be between the two main names without detection.

The sources confirmed that the close of the agreement on the candidate of the post of prime minister put the Kurdish and Shiite forces in an awkward position, as the name of the former leader of the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan Barham Saleh is strongly proposed to the presidency in the Kurdish circles supported by the acceptance of the Arab public, in exchange for other names, including: Former Hoshyar Zebari, and the President of the Office of the Kurdistan Region of Iraq Fuad Hussein and leader of the Kurdistan Democratic Party, Fadel Mirani, while nominated eight Sunni Sunnis themselves for the post of Speaker of Parliament, most notably Khalid al-Obeidi and Osama Najafi, Mohammed Halbusi and Talal Zobaie.

The sources revealed that in the event of the resolution of the post of prime minister with the approval of Sistani today, the Shiite forces informed the Kurds and Sunnis that they will leave free vote for their members of the posts of the heads of parliament and the Republic, if no agreement is Sunni and Kurd them.
