Parliament is expected to convene in early July to decide on nine ministerial portfolios in al-Zidi’s government.
Member of the Coordination Framework, Uday Abdul-Hadi, predicted on Monday that a session of the Council of Representatives would be held during the first week of July to vote on nine ministerial portfolios in Ali al-Zaidi’s government.
Abdul-Hadi told Al-Maalouma, “There is political support for completing the formation of Ali al-Zaidi’s government from the forces within the Coordination Framework, in coordination with the other political forces and movements.” He anticipated “a session of the Council of Representatives in the first week of July to vote on the candidates for nine ministerial portfolios, in order to complete the remaining cabinet positions.”
He added that “next week will witness an important round of political meetings, especially among the forces within the Coordination Framework, to finalize the choices regarding the candidates’ names, particularly for the sovereign ministries.” He indicated that “expectations point to reaching a comprehensive agreement that will lead to holding the parliamentary session and voting on the candidates for the nine ministerial portfolios.”
