The United Nations stands ready to intervene to dissolve the parliament crisis

Special Representative of the Secretary-General of the United Nations in Iraq, Jan Kubis, the United Nations stands ready to find a political solution to the crisis that is currently taking place in parliament, he said.

He said in a statement after a meeting with President Fuad Masum said the political parties in Iraq must reach a political solution, and on an urgent basis, based on the Constitution and the law and the principles of democracy, which puts an end to the state of division and paralysis taking place in Parliament, paving the way rapidly to initiate and proceed forward with the necessary anti-corruption measures and reforms as well as ensuring the smooth functioning of state institutions without any pressure or intimidation noting that the United Nations stands ready to facilitate these efforts, if needed and if requested by the parties.
