Al-Zarkoushi: A session to complete the ministerial portfolios is possible during this week.
On Saturday, Abdul Samad al-Zarkoushi, a member of the Coordination Framework, confirmed that holding a session of the Iraqi Parliament to finalize the remaining ministerial portfolios in Ali al-Zaidi’s government this week is possible, pending the completion of political agreements.
Al-Zarkoushi told Al-Maalouma that “all political forces, including the Coordination Framework, agree on the necessity of completing the vote on the remaining ministerial portfolios in Ali al-Zaidi’s government.” He explained that “the possibility of holding a parliamentary session to resolve these issues this week is very likely, pending political agreements expected to become clear within the next 72 hours.”
He added that “finalizing the ministerial portfolios is important, especially since they include ministries with political, service, and security dimensions, such as the Ministries of Interior, Defense, and Planning.” He pointed out that “the next phase is extremely important, especially given the presence of sensitive and complex issues awaiting a government roadmap, particularly in the financial and economic sectors.”
Al-Zarkoushi stressed that “completing the government formation is essential for managing the ministries and proceeding with the plans developed to address many past issues.”
