BAGHDAD / Aswat al-Iraq: Iraq’s Shiite Sadrist Trend has sent a 3-man delegation, under instructions of its Leader, Muqtada al-Sadr, to Kurdistan’s capital of Arbil, in a mission to bring viewpoints of different political blocs closer, the Legislature of al-Ahrar (Liberals) bloc, Hakim al-Zamirly said on Thursday.
“The current tension among the political blocs, especially between the State of Law (led by Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki) and al-Iraqiya Coalition (led by Iyad Allawi) has complicated a lot of things, delayed the assignment of security cabinet ministers and delayed the formation of the High Council of Strategic Policies (HCSP),” Zamily told Aswat al-Iraq news agency.
He said “the feeling of responsibility by the Sadrist Trend and its Leader, Muqtada al-Sadr, had pushed it to send the three-man delegation to Arbil, led by Bahaa al-Aaraji and membership of Mushriq Naji and Zuheir al-Hasnawi.”
“The delegation had conferred with Kurdistan Region’s President, Massoud Barzani and other Kurdish leaders, and shall meet al-Iraqiya Leader, Iyad Allawi and leaderships of the State of Law, in an attempt to bring closer the viewpoints of both sides,” he added.
The President of Kurdistan Region, Massoud Barzani, had presented an initiative on 16/9/2010 to settle the political crisis that developed after Iraq’s nationwide elections, including the formation of an 8-12 member committee, representing political blocs, to begin talks to settle their suspended differences and discuss the issue of forming a government of national-partnership, as well as the settlement of the issue of the Three Iraqi Presidencies.
