18/02/2012 | (Voice of Iraq)
Najafi in an interview with «Middle East»: Iraq's relations strained with the Arab world in general and this is very harmful contagious Fayyad 's task looks Osama Najafi, head of the Iraqi parliament, the most difficult in the current political situation, it is incumbent upon being the head of Parliament can discharge its responsibilities fully and as I swear constitutionally without bias even to his personal opinion, and at the same time is one of the most prominent leaders of the Iraqi bloc led by Iyad Allawi, the former president of Iraq's prime minister, the cluster that contrary to its approach and its program with the approach of Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki, the head of the rule of law. Valengeevi which falls on the decisions of a mass boycott meetings of the Council of Representatives, as happened recently, initiates the next day and as chairman of the council to attend the meetings and the management of Parliament expressing his impartiality and professionalism in this aspect.
Najafi In an interview with «Middle East» Baghdad talked about, among other things of concern to the citizen and the Iraqi politician at the one, highlighting the National Conference to be held at the initiative of President Jalal Talabani, and the problems that threaten the political process, at the same time warning to Iraq to assess the importance of good relations with the Arab and his world, but the «Summit of Baghdad will be marginal».
The following is the text of the interview:
* National Congress, which took the initiative to held by President Jalal Talabani, who changed his name to the meeting and then the national meeting, will it be held? - there is an agreement to hold this conference and the preparations under way, where he received an important advance in the last meeting of the Preparatory Committee as there was a convergence of in views between the political blocs, and there is a joint paper of the blocks together all applications and scenarios to be discussed and agreed upon to go into detail as a prelude to determine the date of the conference, and I read the paper the Iraqi bloc that collected the all the cards and I do not think there is a difference in views on the most important issues in the points that you should look, but certainly there will be differences in the mechanisms and safeguards in the time of the implementation of these issues.
* Based on your experience do you think that this conference will succeed, would yield positive results? - note when some of the brothers that there is no serious concern for the conference because results will be binding to them in some cases.
* Who are these? - some blocks that you think they will lose some powers.
* Can you call it? - all the blocks have problems, I do not I call now any block as I am patron of the conference with the President and the Prime Minister I do not want to align myself to the point, but I say that some of the parties is not in their interest to give concessions at this time, and there is some kind of statement held the conference, or to facilitate the conditions necessary for success and we hope that the conference is being held soon, but certainly if this does not work conference will achieve part of the success and this is required to achieve also at this time because without the conference we will enter immediately into a new phase, a phase of political confrontation, which will be held every situation in Iraq.
* Do you mean that the political process will hit a wall? - the political process now distorted and it has a lot of shortcomings and a lot of deviations from the Constitution and the national interest and for providing what he wants the Iraqi citizens in the life of a secure and stable, this situation should not continue and must not allow further harm to the Iraqi people, it must be a course correction and return to the Constitution and return to the interests of the average citizen and the interests of the provinces and return to achieve the concept of national partnership and national understanding about the management of the country in this transitional phase, it is not a stable phase and not a final stage in building the state is on the way to achieve that for this it is imperative that there be a common view, and this common view is verified Now, there uniqueness by some parties, so we see the importance of convening the National Congress, which seeks to restore balance and re-national partnership and seeks to realize the concept of democracy that emphasize the devolution of power.
* you talk now about the violation of the Constitution, see how it is violating the constitution does not handled it? - When arrest a citizen, nor is it offered to an investigating judge within 24 hours and held for months in military barracks, and then be a bargaining chip the people arrested on the freedom of this home for his release in exchange for money, this major violation and departure from the Constitution and this is happening in Iraq, When not given the province of what it deserves from the funds, powers and adversely affecting the lives of people in that province, this departure from the constitutional text says decentralization wide, and when exceeding official powers and jump to the Constitution and the frozen material in the Constitution, this violation of the Constitution, all these things are now in Iraq should be to cooperate to return to the real constitution and a commitment to his texts.
Q: What about defamation Vice President Tareq al-Hashemi, as he asserted that his immunity violated as was violated his house? - issue Hashemi politicized since the first day and the publication of preliminary investigations elementary in the media and beyond the control of the judiciary, and shipped the street against him, which pressure on the judge to take action it deems appropriate because the political climate year engorged on the issue, has also taken the dimension of sectarian certain through some of the statements made by some of the defendants during the investigation which was broadcast on television and started shipping the street in some provinces by focusing on the sectarian issue and the most serious.
What is the future and stability of Iraq, so I took this issue by a broad political and judicial Now is disabled and another for not allowing lawyers access to the accused so far and all that exists are the lawyers are assigned by the court and at times there are demonstrations in the door of the court calling for the execution of the accused and there police stations expel lawyers applicants Agency for the defendants and we Kprlman act now to ensure the safety procedures before the judges to their work, what we are working on now is the appeal of action taken in this case starting with the arrest and the initial investigation and presentation of the accused to the judge, these procedures were not a sound was an aspect a clear political. Until the publication of confessions was the order of the executive branch has issued a judiciary statement emphasizing the lack of relationship with the subject and that this is not from the core work of the judiciary because the accused is innocent until proven guilty, and display confessions media is a condemnation of the prior and the impact on the street and on the judiciary and politicians and this is a constitutional violation clearly .
* in connection with the case, spoke Nuri al-Maliki, the Prime Minister, for al-Hashemi in his speech on the anniversary of the establishment of his «call» the words of insult when he must attend offended or humiliated in front of the judiciary, Is this permissible? - This is another intervention in the case. . I think that the Prime Minister to distance himself from interfering with the judiciary, his statements that the person convicted and I «the beginning of the investigation» These issues may not be especially from the head of the executive branch, must be subject to it folding secret after taking case actions sound to reach the judiciary to a particular
provision, but before that intervened in the door of the politicization of the issue.
* Let me ask you Kkieda in a cluster of Iraq, Hashemi is accused of terrorism and Saleh al-Mutlaq, the Deputy Prime Minister required the withdrawal of confidence by the parliament by al-Maliki, the two Kiedian in Ktltkm, as there is demand to withdraw the immunity of MPs for «Iraq» Haider Mulla and Salim al, Is Landing is Ktltkm or component of the Sunni Arab? - certainly there is competition and a political struggle used by some illegal means and sound, and I say that the charge-Hashimi is still just a charge, and as long as not proven guilty is of the leaders of the Iraqi bloc which is still Vice-President of the Republic is entitled to use all legal means to defend himself. With regard to the welfare of al-Mutlaq, there disagreement between him and the Prime Minister and there is a demand to withdraw trust him and the political blocs do not agree, I mean, is not displayed topic in a plenary session in Parliament, but in conversations that are made with heads of parliamentary blocs have not agreed to raise this issue in the House of Representatives to vote Accordingly, the issue could be resolved by mutual consent between the two men and there are efforts actively by President Jalal Talabani and a tribal meeting in order to solve this way and I think that the issue must be resolved quickly and return man, al-Mutlaq, to his work as deputy prime minister must be calm in this case Although there is still a heated exchange between the two parties to speak, but must be calm so that we can restore things to normal. With regard to the withdrawal of confidence from the House of Representatives there are two requests for the withdrawal of confidence from the two deputies in the Iraqi Mullah Jubouri, and there is a demand for the withdrawal of confidence from the three deputies of the National Alliance, Mohammad Faraj Allah and Sabah al-Saadi and another deputy, and such applications pending before a parliamentary committee charged with examining issues not convinced this Committee any request to withdraw confidence from the House of Representatives.
* But the question that has not Tjibwa him is whether that component of the Sunni Arab is the target behind it? - certainly the attack targeted a cluster of Iraq is a block variety there are deputies in Basra have been subjected to harm, prosecution and charges, and a number of public mass in the provinces Central and South America have been subjected to attack, they are not targeted to a particular component as it is directed to the method of political.
* information indicates that the issue of al-Mutlaq with the Prime Minister is not because of what he said about al-Maliki, describing it as «a dictator worse than Saddam Hussein», but there are other background of the subject relating to the question of the formation of regions? - the problem raised with the al-Mutlaq, when raised the issue of national balance in the cabinet where the submission of the application and got a kind of quarrel of words and then evolved to what happened later, and the subject of the regions the issue of constitutional and legal, there is an objection by the Prime Minister and the reservation is strong and this objection and reservation violate the Iraqi constitution clearly it is not the right Prime Minister to prevent the establishment of regions but also his duty to forward the requests to the referendum and that did not happen in violation of express constitutional under any pretext or excuse, put it out of the core responsibilities of Prime Minister, the entire range list an issue time to set up territories if not addressed issues of human provinces.
* Do you agree with the establishment of regions? - I think that the establishment of regions will emphasize Iraq's unity and will of the flesh of Iraqis and will establish a system is able to survive and continue steadily, and not to establish territories, and not to give the provinces their rights of decentralization wide as possible to pay things more dangerous than this, we say it must be harmony with the Constitution and to accept any requests for the legitimacy of the progress and be al-Faisal is the opinion of the citizen and not a political opinion which is not his responsibility to stop such an issue. Do you think it will force some of the provinces by force not required to establish regions? - I do not think that things will reach this limit, but there are some parties are trying to provoke internal dissension in the provinces to prevent the establishment of the regions.
* Have you been to include the issues of al-Mutlaq al-Hashemi, the agenda of the national meeting? - Yes .. Block «Iraq» made paper and the clear text says that he must find solutions to legal, constitutional and political issues of al-Mutlaq and Hashemi ahead of the conference and not in the business so as to create the atmosphere, and the paper stressed that the issue Hashemi, the political aspect and the side of justice, and the issue of al-Mutlaq is a matter of purely political need for a political solution This is what is in the paper «Iraq».
* Iraqi bloc withdrew its ministers from the meetings of the Council of Ministers and deputies of the Parliament and returned without a price .. I mean, without having met their demands, see why quit and why she returned to the Council of Ministers and the Parliament? - the withdrawal was for reasonable cause and important, which said in a statement block first is an attempt to screaming out loud for the voices of the Iraqi people and political forces and the world that there is a deviation in the political process, and I think that our voice has arrived and there is interest and responses Iraqi and international clear and genuine, and the fruits of the provincial direction to National Conference and return to the negotiating table and discuss all outstanding issues and find solutions to them, so I think that the price was very important, and the province was for the benefit of an Iraqi national, and return it to the national interest Iraqi and the results were clear and is the curriculum of the new Now we move to an approach of dialogue and negotiations to find solutions and shed light on the political situation in Iraq and that he did not come out of the crisis and that the situation in transition, contrary to what I tried some of the internal and external to imagine that everything in the situation Iraqi politician has ended successfully and that he had held the state has been stabilized, and this is verified now.
* But what is significant so far is that Ktltkm Iraq is still the loser in the political process has not been achieved with the agreement of Erbil and the initiative of Massoud Barzani, President of the Kurdistan region, almost anything in particular the formation of high politics, and the meetings that took place between Iyad Allawi, leader of the Iraqi, and al-Maliki did not result from something that was things going on in a vicious circle .. - the truth is that the «Iraq» did not come to gain as much as they came to work on reform conditions for this abandoned a lot of benefits that could be obtained if abandoned some of the methodologies and visions and policies that it believes are necessary to evaluate the track, but the (Iraqi) was positive and has always made the suffering of the citizens and claim their rights and privileges and the defense of the detainees and the rights of the provinces and components Iraq and its various, this was, and still primary concern is not to be fully realized certainly, but some provinces got partial rights and that there is a problem must be addressed, this will continue Ktltna to uphold its national and pressure toward the interests of citizens, and the interests of «Iraq» is to work on the survival of Iraq uniform and out of the retrenchment of sectarian, ethnic and establish a real democracy and abide by the constitution, we are on the way to achieve this, can not be achieved these things quickly, but now people are convinced popularity and conviction, political forces task even outside the «Iraq» and the world began seen that there is a problem in Iraq, summed up out for democracy after that there was a perception that Iraq has become a country fully democratic, this is what I tried some of the parties to suggest it, but Iraq is still on the road and «Iraq» is one of the Almthabat key to correct the political process in Iraq.
* you talk about democracy and here ask whether Iraqi decision or political or economic security is a joint decision between the political forces to participate in the government? - no .. Not a common course, and this is one of the fundamental problems is that strategic decisions are not in consultation, even in the institutions concerned, which means decisions are made images of improvised and quickly regardless of the opinion of the partners, and after the decision is forwarded to the institutions in an effort to commit the rest of the Parties, and even economic decision not be agreed upon, I mean, some political forces adopt a certain approach and try to oblige others to this approach and this is not consistent with the public interest, perhaps in line with the interests of narrow and I think the country needs the type of organization of institutions and organizations that shape the decision and try to work on to be a decision mature and to be the result of study of specialists and experts and that the possession of the Agreement on the main political forces at the same time is consistent with the Constitution and in line with the interests of Iraq that you see most of the political forces or the vast majority because there are other parties trying to push Iraq to the axes of certain off-axis or the normal position which is supposed to live in Iraq and this is not consistent in which all Iraqis.
* The Iraqis do not feel that any achievements made them .. Before I came to you I asked an Iraqi citizen, what they want from the President of parliament to do for the people commented, saying, «There is nothing to check the Iraqis no electricity, no services, no security and economic improvement», what is your response? - the truth .. Not the picture bleak in this form and we can not say that he had not achieved anything, Iraq emerged from the stage was where the system of forced and state unfair and the rule imposes on the people how to live and how they behave and where political life, but life imposed on people by force, now there is diversity, there Press writes, a voice comes out through demonstration or through parliament, or through the satellite channels, now what I said you that people are talking about the officials, this new shift to a new situation and has no precedent, there are at least 3 million employees in Iraq changed their lives and increased their salaries and are now able to exercise their normal after improvement of their economic lot and this new shift, too, the elections are a way because the people choose who they want to achieve their interests, certainly there are people who can be interviewed officials and I meet every day large numbers of people after that apply normal and the ministers have days dedicated to interview citizens, As for the walls concrete security situation makes it imperative for the administrator to put this wall, there is a suicide bomber entered his car, killing the official and his family, guards and this happened, I'm not saying that's a black On the other hand there is also an assault on the dignity of people and the arbitrary arrests and the corruption of the state and exceeded the powers and the lack of real solutions to economic problems and the lack of economic vision mature and the absence of institutions mature, not to build a state in its final form, there is a conflict between the political forces, the conflict between the Kurdistan Region and the Centre, the conflict between the provinces and Baghdad due to encroach upon the powers, all of these things We hope to go beyond soon. There are things that have been made and things have not been achieved and the other made in violation, it is important that the Iraqi people began to know what he wants, knows he wants a stable democracy safe where the governor accountable, and where the charge under penalty of law, and that there be transparency in the disbursement of public money, and that there is respect for human rights, these things are not achieved, but there are committees working to correct some of the tracks there are committees for Human Rights and the High Commission for Human Rights in the early stages good for its formation.
* citizen looking for direct services, electricity is absent despite the passage of 9 years to change the system, the streets crowded Balbaah street, Iraqi wants to touch the achievements of himself, what does it mean to write papers and that there is freedom of expression and there are journalists being murdered, as happened with journalist Hadi Mahdi, who did not disclose the investigation on the causes of death in his home and clarity the day, this is a threat to all journalists. - I said that there are deviations and things have not been achieved, has emerged demonstrations were suppressed and this order was rejected and his conviction and I say that this approach is wrong, there are curriculum seriously, we say that there is a deviation now and we must train to the rail, but we want the citizens to be positive, what to say to the people the province of a particular do not provide suitable candidates for the House of Representatives or the provincial or district for fear of a terrorist, there are members of the House of Representatives are elected legally, but they do not enjoy the experience enough, we need to experience in the field of medicine, economy, judiciary and politics, technology, and these do not exist as a result the reluctance of these competencies from running and addressing the risks.
* political leaders Kurdish today constitute a balance and stability in Iraq, the initiative of Massoud Barzani, president of the Kurdistan Regional Government formed, and today the initiative of President Talabani is serious about finding a deal to rescue the political process, how do you see this? - President Barzani has an important role in the Convention Erbil, and today Icon President Talabani in turn starting point of being the head of the Republic to the National Congress, which we agreed upon, President Talabani and I when we met in Sulaimaniya has adopted the subject being the head of the Republic. Kurds their role primarily in Iraq and they enjoy the role of political, economic, and enjoy international relations distinct and this increases their weight in the political situation of Iraq, and the differences between the provinces and components and the political forces representing these provinces make the Kurds more important role and be a balancing factor in the country and I think that this role سيبقى إلى حين أن تستقر الدولة ويكون هناك مرجعية دستورية وقانونية واضحة وحياة ديمقراطية حقيقية في العراق. * كيف تنظرون إلى علاقات العراق الخارجية، عربيا أولا ثم إقليميا؟ - السياسة الخارجية غير متفق عليها، هناك خلافات في طريقة صياغة القرار أو الرؤية الاستراتيجية للعراق وكان لهذا الأمر أن يتحقق من خلال مجلس السياسات الاستراتيجية الذي اتفقنا عليه ضمن اتفاقية أربيل ولم ينفذ حتى الآن، إذ كان من الممكن أن يتحول هذا المجلس إلى مطبخ للقرارات المهمة وبضمنها العلاقات الخارجية، علاقات العراق متوترة مع العالم العربي عموما وهذا الأمر مضر جدا لأن العراق بلد عربي ومحيطه عربي ويجب أن يعالج الخلافات بطريقة صحيحة وأن يجد أسلوبا لفتح علاقات مستقرة، هذا غير متفق عليه وهناك قناعة أن الشعب العراقي يريد علاقات طيبة مع العرب ولكن يجب أن تكون علاقات متقابلة ليست فقط من جانبنا، العلاقات الإقليمية أيضا غير واضحة، بصورة عامة السياسة الخارجية للعراق لم تحقق إنجازات مهمة ولم تنجح في ترسيخ وإيجاد مشتركات وضوابط واتفاقيات في مختلف المجالات الأمنية والاقتصادية والسياسية تقوي وضع العراق عربيا وإقليميا ودوليا أيضا، العلاقات مع تركيا مثلا متوترة ومع إيران جيدة، مع السعودية متوترة ومع الكويت فيها ضبابية ومع الأردن في الوسط ومع سوريا الآن غير واضحة رغم من أن العراق بدأ ينسجم مع قرارات الجامعة العربية ضد النظام السوري.

* How do you see Iraq's external relations, the Arab world first, then regionally? - foreign policy is agreed, there are differences in the way the wording of the resolution or the strategic vision for Iraq and had this it be achieved through the Council of strategic policies, which we agreed upon in the agreement Erbil has not yet been implemented, as it was possible to turn this Council to the kitchen to the decisions of the task, including the Foreign Relations, Iraq's relations strained with the Arab world in general and this is very harmful because Iraq is an Arab country and around the Arab and must address differences properly and to find a way to open a stable relationship, this is not agreed upon and are convinced that the Iraqi people want good relations with the Arabs, but must be relations facing not only from our side, regional relations also are not clear, in general foreign policy Iraq has not achieved significant achievements have been unsuccessful in establishing and finding participants and controls and agreements in various areas of security, economic and political strengthen the situation in Iraq an Arab, regionally and internationally as well, relations with Turkey, for example, tense and with Iran are good, with Saudi Arabia, tense with Kuwait where blurry and with Jordan in the middle and with Syria now is not clear, although that Iraq has begun in line with the decisions of the Arab League against the Syrian regime. Foreign policy stalled and need to be reviewed, there are Iraqi political forces have good relations with Arab countries on the contrary the official policy and should take advantage of this diversity to achieve good relations with everyone within the common interests.
* As your side this, Iraq's relations strained the Arab world, then how will convene the Conference Arab Summit in Baghdad, and are you optimistic about the holding of this conference? - Congress agreed, and the Arabs promised to come to Baghdad, but you must create an atmosphere truly, we do not want a conference marginal represents the State and foreign ministers or ambassadors, but we want a conference bring Iraq to his world Arab and re-Arabs to Iraq. There is a specific date for the conference and Iraq face invitations and the Arab League, told us, through Ahmed Ben Helli, who visited me a few days ago that there is a decision the Arab collective audience and I'm still in doubt of this subject as there are still relationships are not clear and this depends on the coming days, especially with regard to the subject Syrian relations with Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Bahrain, all of these things will determine the size and type of participation, this conference is very important, Iraq emerged from the stage and entered a new phase and requires him to lead his role is clear and important role and the weight of Iraq.
* Finally, do you block Iraqi uniform? - Yes .. A united, strong and determined leadership to achieve its national program.
* But what is significant so far is that Ktltkm Iraq is still the loser in the political process has not been achieved with the agreement of Erbil and the initiative of Massoud Barzani, President of the Kurdistan region, almost anything especially the formation of high politics, and the meetings that took place between Iyad Allawi, leader of the Bloc Iraqi, and al-Maliki did not result from something that was things going on in a vicious circle .. - the truth is that the «Iraq» did not come to gain as much as they came to work on the reform of the conditions of this abandoned a lot of benefits that could be obtained if it abandons its Some methodologies and visions and policies that it believes are necessary to evaluate the track, but the (Iraqi) was positive and was always made the suffering of the citizens and claim their rights and privileges and the defense of the detainees and the rights of the provinces and the components of Iraq and its various, this was, and still primary concern is not to be fully realized certainly, but some provinces obtained partial rights and that there is a problem must be addressed, this will continue Ktltna to uphold its national and pressure toward the interests of citizens, and the interests of «Iraq» is to work on the survival of Iraq's unity and out of the retrenchment of sectarian, ethnic and establish a real democracy and abide by the constitution, we are on the way to achieve this , can not be achieved these things quickly, but now people are convinced popularity and conviction, political forces task even outside the «Iraq» and the world began seen that there is a problem in Iraq summed out for democracy after that there was a perception that Iraq has become a country fully democratic, this is what I tried Some parties suggest it, but Iraq is still on the road and «Iraq» is one of the Almthabat key to correct the political process in Iraq.

Not the picture bleak in this form and we can not say that he had not achieved anything, Iraq emerged from the stage was where the system of forced and state unfair and the rule imposes on the people how to live and how they behave and where political life, but life imposed on people by force, now there is diversity, there Press writes, a voice comes out through demonstration or through parliament, or through the satellite channels, now what I said you that people are talking about the officials, this new shift to a new situation and has no precedent, there are at least 3 million employees in Iraq changed their lives and increased their salaries and are now able to exercise their normal after improvement of their economic lot and this new shift, too, the elections are a way because the people choose who they want to achieve their interests, certainly there are people who can be interviewed officials and I meet every day large numbers of people after that apply normal and the ministers have days dedicated to interview citizens, As for the walls concrete security situation makes it imperative for the administrator to put this wall, there is a suicide bomber entered his car, killing the official and his family, guards and this happened, I'm not saying that's a black On the other hand there is also an assault on the dignity of people and the arbitrary arrests and the corruption of the state and exceeded the powers and the lack of real solutions to economic problems and the lack of economic vision mature and the absence of institutions mature, not to build a state in its final form, there is a conflict between the political forces, the conflict between the Kurdistan Region and the Centre, the conflict between the provinces and Baghdad due to encroach upon the powers, all of these things We hope to go beyond soon. There are things that have been made and things have not been achieved and the other made in violation, it is important that the Iraqi people began to know what he wants, knows he wants a stable democracy safe where the governor accountable, and where the charge under penalty of law, and that there be transparency in the disbursement of public money, and that there is respect for human rights, these things are not achieved, but there are committees working to correct some of the tracks there are committees for Human Rights and the High Commission for Human Rights in the early stages good for its formation.
* citizen looking for direct services, electricity is absent despite the passage of 9 years to change the system, the streets crowded Balbaah street, Iraqi wants to touch the achievements of himself, what does it mean to write papers and that there is freedom of expression and there are journalists being murdered, as happened with journalist Hadi Mahdi, who did not disclose the investigation on the causes of death in his home and clarity the day, this is a threat to all journalists. - I said that there are deviations and things have not been achieved, has emerged demonstrations were suppressed and this order was rejected and his conviction and I say that this approach is wrong, there are curriculum seriously, we say that there is a deviation now and we must train to the rail, but we want the citizens to be positive, what to say to the people the province of a particular do not provide suitable candidates for the House of Representatives or the provincial or district for fear of a terrorist, there are members of the House of Representatives are elected legally, but they do not enjoy the experience enough, we need to experience in the field of medicine, economy, judiciary and politics, technology, and these do not exist as a result the reluctance of these competencies from running and addressing the risks.
* political leaders Kurdish today constitute a balance and stability in Iraq, the initiative of Massoud Barzani, president of the Kurdistan Regional Government formed, and today the initiative of President Talabani is serious about finding a deal to rescue the political process, how do you see this? - President Barzani has an important role in the Convention Erbil, and today Icon President Talabani in turn starting point of being the head of the Republic to the National Congress, which we agreed upon, President Talabani and I when we met in Sulaimaniya has adopted the subject being the head of the Republic. Kurds their role primarily in Iraq and they enjoy the role of political, economic, and enjoy international relations distinct and this increases their weight in the political situation of Iraq, and the differences between the provinces and components and the political forces representing these provinces make the Kurds more important role and be a balancing factor in the country and I think that this role will remain until that stabilizes the state and there is a reference of constitutional and legal and clear and the lives of real democracy in Iraq.
* How do you see Iraq's external relations, the Arab world first, then regionally? - foreign policy is agreed, there are differences in the way the wording of the resolution or the strategic vision for Iraq and had this it be achieved through the Council of strategic policies, which we agreed upon in the agreement Erbil has not yet been implemented, as it was possible to turn this Council to the kitchen to the decisions of the task, including the Foreign Relations, Iraq's relations strained with the Arab world in general and this is very harmful because Iraq is an Arab country and around the Arab and must address differences properly and to find a way to open a stable relationship, this is not agreed upon and are convinced that the Iraqi people want good relations with the Arabs, but must be relations facing not only from our side, regional relations also are not clear, in general foreign policy Iraq has not achieved significant achievements have been unsuccessful in establishing and finding participants and controls and agreements in various areas of security, economic and political strengthen the situation in Iraq an Arab, regionally and internationally as well, relations with Turkey, for example, tense and with Iran are good, with Saudi Arabia, tense with Kuwait where blurry and with Jordan in the middle and with Syria now is not clear, although that Iraq has begun in line with the decisions of the Arab League against the Syrian regime. Foreign policy stalled and need to be reviewed, there are Iraqi political forces have good relations with Arab countries on the contrary the official policy and should take advantage of this diversity to achieve good relations with everyone within the common interests.
* As your side this, Iraq's relations strained the Arab world, then how will convene the Conference Arab Summit in Baghdad, and are you optimistic about the holding of this conference? - Congress agreed, and the Arabs promised to come to Baghdad, but you must create an atmosphere truly, we do not want a conference marginal represents the State and foreign ministers or ambassadors, but we want a conference bring Iraq to his world Arab and re-Arabs to Iraq. There is a specific date for the conference and Iraq face invitations and the Arab League, told us, through Ahmed Ben Helli, who visited me a few days ago that there is a decision the Arab collective audience and I'm still in doubt of this subject as there are still relationships are not clear and this depends on the coming days, especially with regard to the subject Syrian relations with Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Bahrain, all of these things will determine the size and type of participation, this conference is very important, Iraq emerged from the stage and entered a new phase and requires him to lead his role is clear and important role and the weight of Iraq.
* Finally, do you block Iraqi uniform? - Yes .. A united, strong and determined leadership to achieve its national program.

Najafi in an interview with «Middle East»: Iraq's relations strained with the Arab world in general and this is very harmful contagious Fayyad 's task looks Osama Najafi, head of the Iraqi parliament, the most difficult in the current political situation, it is incumbent upon being the head of Parliament can discharge its responsibilities fully and as I swear constitutionally without bias even to his personal opinion, and at the same time is one of the most prominent leaders of the Iraqi bloc led by Iyad Allawi, the former president of Iraq's prime minister, the cluster that contrary to its approach and its program with the approach of Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki, the head of the rule of law. Valengeevi which falls on the decisions of a mass boycott meetings of the Council of Representatives, as happened recently, initiates the next day and as chairman of the council to attend the meetings and the management of Parliament expressing his impartiality and professionalism in this aspect.
Najafi In an interview with «Middle East» Baghdad talked about, among other things of concern to the citizen and the Iraqi politician at the one, highlighting the National Conference to be held at the initiative of President Jalal Talabani, and the problems that threaten the political process, at the same time warning to Iraq to assess the importance of good relations with the Arab and his world, but the «Summit of Baghdad will be marginal».
The following is the text of the interview:
* National Congress, which took the initiative to held by President Jalal Talabani, who changed his name to the meeting and then the national meeting, will it be held? - there is an agreement to hold this conference and the preparations under way, where he received an important advance in the last meeting of the Preparatory Committee as there was a convergence of in views between the political blocs, and there is a joint paper of the blocks together all applications and scenarios to be discussed and agreed upon to go into detail as a prelude to determine the date of the conference, and I read the paper the Iraqi bloc that collected the all the cards and I do not think there is a difference in views on the most important issues in the points that you should look, but certainly there will be differences in the mechanisms and safeguards in the time of the implementation of these issues.
* Based on your experience do you think that this conference will succeed, would yield positive results? - note when some of the brothers that there is no serious concern for the conference because results will be binding to them in some cases.
* Who are these? - some blocks that you think they will lose some powers.
* Can you call it? - all the blocks have problems, I do not I call now any block as I am patron of the conference with the President and the Prime Minister I do not want to align myself to the point, but I say that some of the parties is not in their interest to give concessions at this time, and there is some kind of statement held the conference, or to facilitate the conditions necessary for success and we hope that the conference is being held soon, but certainly if this does not work conference will achieve part of the success and this is required to achieve also at this time because without the conference we will enter immediately into a new phase, a phase of political confrontation, which will be held every situation in Iraq.
* Do you mean that the political process will hit a wall? - the political process now distorted and it has a lot of shortcomings and a lot of deviations from the Constitution and the national interest and for providing what he wants the Iraqi citizens in the life of a secure and stable, this situation should not continue and must not allow further harm to the Iraqi people, it must be a course correction and return to the Constitution and return to the interests of the average citizen and the interests of the provinces and return to achieve the concept of national partnership and national understanding about the management of the country in this transitional phase, it is not a stable phase and not a final stage in building the state is on the way to achieve that for this it is imperative that there be a common view, and this common view is verified Now, there uniqueness by some parties, so we see the importance of convening the National Congress, which seeks to restore balance and re-national partnership and seeks to realize the concept of democracy that emphasize the devolution of power.
* you talk now about the violation of the Constitution, see how it is violating the constitution does not handled it? - When arrest a citizen, nor is it offered to an investigating judge within 24 hours and held for months in military barracks, and then be a bargaining chip the people arrested on the freedom of this home for his release in exchange for money, this major violation and departure from the Constitution and this is happening in Iraq, When not given the province of what it deserves from the funds, powers and adversely affecting the lives of people in that province, this departure from the constitutional text says decentralization wide, and when exceeding official powers and jump to the Constitution and the frozen material in the Constitution, this violation of the Constitution, all these things are now in Iraq should be to cooperate to return to the real constitution and a commitment to his texts.
Q: What about defamation Vice President Tareq al-Hashemi, as he asserted that his immunity violated as was violated his house? - issue Hashemi politicized since the first day and the publication of preliminary investigations elementary in the media and beyond the control of the judiciary, and shipped the street against him, which pressure on the judge to take action it deems appropriate because the political climate year engorged on the issue, has also taken the dimension of sectarian certain through some of the statements made by some of the defendants during the investigation which was broadcast on television and started shipping the street in some provinces by focusing on the sectarian issue and the most serious.
What is the future and stability of Iraq, so I took this issue by a broad political and judicial Now is disabled and another for not allowing lawyers access to the accused so far and all that exists are the lawyers are assigned by the court and at times there are demonstrations in the door of the court calling for the execution of the accused and there police stations expel lawyers applicants Agency for the defendants and we Kprlman act now to ensure the safety procedures before the judges to their work, what we are working on now is the appeal of action taken in this case starting with the arrest and the initial investigation and presentation of the accused to the judge, these procedures were not a sound was an aspect a clear political. Until the publication of confessions was the order of the executive branch has issued a judiciary statement emphasizing the lack of relationship with the subject and that this is not from the core work of the judiciary because the accused is innocent until proven guilty, and display confessions media is a condemnation of the prior and the impact on the street and on the judiciary and politicians and this is a constitutional violation clearly .
* in connection with the case, spoke Nuri al-Maliki, the Prime Minister, for al-Hashemi in his speech on the anniversary of the establishment of his «call» the words of insult when he must attend offended or humiliated in front of the judiciary, Is this permissible? - This is another intervention in the case. . I think that the Prime Minister to distance himself from interfering with the judiciary, his statements that the person convicted and I «the beginning of the investigation» These issues may not be especially from the head of the executive branch, must be subject to it folding secret after taking case actions sound to reach the judiciary to a particular
provision, but before that intervened in the door of the politicization of the issue.
* Let me ask you Kkieda in a cluster of Iraq, Hashemi is accused of terrorism and Saleh al-Mutlaq, the Deputy Prime Minister required the withdrawal of confidence by the parliament by al-Maliki, the two Kiedian in Ktltkm, as there is demand to withdraw the immunity of MPs for «Iraq» Haider Mulla and Salim al, Is Landing is Ktltkm or component of the Sunni Arab? - certainly there is competition and a political struggle used by some illegal means and sound, and I say that the charge-Hashimi is still just a charge, and as long as not proven guilty is of the leaders of the Iraqi bloc which is still Vice-President of the Republic is entitled to use all legal means to defend himself. With regard to the welfare of al-Mutlaq, there disagreement between him and the Prime Minister and there is a demand to withdraw trust him and the political blocs do not agree, I mean, is not displayed topic in a plenary session in Parliament, but in conversations that are made with heads of parliamentary blocs have not agreed to raise this issue in the House of Representatives to vote Accordingly, the issue could be resolved by mutual consent between the two men and there are efforts actively by President Jalal Talabani and a tribal meeting in order to solve this way and I think that the issue must be resolved quickly and return man, al-Mutlaq, to his work as deputy prime minister must be calm in this case Although there is still a heated exchange between the two parties to speak, but must be calm so that we can restore things to normal. With regard to the withdrawal of confidence from the House of Representatives there are two requests for the withdrawal of confidence from the two deputies in the Iraqi Mullah Jubouri, and there is a demand for the withdrawal of confidence from the three deputies of the National Alliance, Mohammad Faraj Allah and Sabah al-Saadi and another deputy, and such applications pending before a parliamentary committee charged with examining issues not convinced this Committee any request to withdraw confidence from the House of Representatives.
* But the question that has not Tjibwa him is whether that component of the Sunni Arab is the target behind it? - certainly the attack targeted a cluster of Iraq is a block variety there are deputies in Basra have been subjected to harm, prosecution and charges, and a number of public mass in the provinces Central and South America have been subjected to attack, they are not targeted to a particular component as it is directed to the method of political.
* information indicates that the issue of al-Mutlaq with the Prime Minister is not because of what he said about al-Maliki, describing it as «a dictator worse than Saddam Hussein», but there are other background of the subject relating to the question of the formation of regions? - the problem raised with the al-Mutlaq, when raised the issue of national balance in the cabinet where the submission of the application and got a kind of quarrel of words and then evolved to what happened later, and the subject of the regions the issue of constitutional and legal, there is an objection by the Prime Minister and the reservation is strong and this objection and reservation violate the Iraqi constitution clearly it is not the right Prime Minister to prevent the establishment of regions but also his duty to forward the requests to the referendum and that did not happen in violation of express constitutional under any pretext or excuse, put it out of the core responsibilities of Prime Minister, the entire range list an issue time to set up territories if not addressed issues of human provinces.
* Do you agree with the establishment of regions? - I think that the establishment of regions will emphasize Iraq's unity and will of the flesh of Iraqis and will establish a system is able to survive and continue steadily, and not to establish territories, and not to give the provinces their rights of decentralization wide as possible to pay things more dangerous than this, we say it must be harmony with the Constitution and to accept any requests for the legitimacy of the progress and be al-Faisal is the opinion of the citizen and not a political opinion which is not his responsibility to stop such an issue. Do you think it will force some of the provinces by force not required to establish regions? - I do not think that things will reach this limit, but there are some parties are trying to provoke internal dissension in the provinces to prevent the establishment of the regions.
* Have you been to include the issues of al-Mutlaq al-Hashemi, the agenda of the national meeting? - Yes .. Block «Iraq» made paper and the clear text says that he must find solutions to legal, constitutional and political issues of al-Mutlaq and Hashemi ahead of the conference and not in the business so as to create the atmosphere, and the paper stressed that the issue Hashemi, the political aspect and the side of justice, and the issue of al-Mutlaq is a matter of purely political need for a political solution This is what is in the paper «Iraq».
* Iraqi bloc withdrew its ministers from the meetings of the Council of Ministers and deputies of the Parliament and returned without a price .. I mean, without having met their demands, see why quit and why she returned to the Council of Ministers and the Parliament? - the withdrawal was for reasonable cause and important, which said in a statement block first is an attempt to screaming out loud for the voices of the Iraqi people and political forces and the world that there is a deviation in the political process, and I think that our voice has arrived and there is interest and responses Iraqi and international clear and genuine, and the fruits of the provincial direction to National Conference and return to the negotiating table and discuss all outstanding issues and find solutions to them, so I think that the price was very important, and the province was for the benefit of an Iraqi national, and return it to the national interest Iraqi and the results were clear and is the curriculum of the new Now we move to an approach of dialogue and negotiations to find solutions and shed light on the political situation in Iraq and that he did not come out of the crisis and that the situation in transition, contrary to what I tried some of the internal and external to imagine that everything in the situation Iraqi politician has ended successfully and that he had held the state has been stabilized, and this is verified now.
* But what is significant so far is that Ktltkm Iraq is still the loser in the political process has not been achieved with the agreement of Erbil and the initiative of Massoud Barzani, President of the Kurdistan region, almost anything in particular the formation of high politics, and the meetings that took place between Iyad Allawi, leader of the Iraqi, and al-Maliki did not result from something that was things going on in a vicious circle .. - the truth is that the «Iraq» did not come to gain as much as they came to work on reform conditions for this abandoned a lot of benefits that could be obtained if abandoned some of the methodologies and visions and policies that it believes are necessary to evaluate the track, but the (Iraqi) was positive and has always made the suffering of the citizens and claim their rights and privileges and the defense of the detainees and the rights of the provinces and components Iraq and its various, this was, and still primary concern is not to be fully realized certainly, but some provinces got partial rights and that there is a problem must be addressed, this will continue Ktltna to uphold its national and pressure toward the interests of citizens, and the interests of «Iraq» is to work on the survival of Iraq uniform and out of the retrenchment of sectarian, ethnic and establish a real democracy and abide by the constitution, we are on the way to achieve this, can not be achieved these things quickly, but now people are convinced popularity and conviction, political forces task even outside the «Iraq» and the world began seen that there is a problem in Iraq, summed up out for democracy after that there was a perception that Iraq has become a country fully democratic, this is what I tried some of the parties to suggest it, but Iraq is still on the road and «Iraq» is one of the Almthabat key to correct the political process in Iraq.
* you talk about democracy and here ask whether Iraqi decision or political or economic security is a joint decision between the political forces to participate in the government? - no .. Not a common course, and this is one of the fundamental problems is that strategic decisions are not in consultation, even in the institutions concerned, which means decisions are made images of improvised and quickly regardless of the opinion of the partners, and after the decision is forwarded to the institutions in an effort to commit the rest of the Parties, and even economic decision not be agreed upon, I mean, some political forces adopt a certain approach and try to oblige others to this approach and this is not consistent with the public interest, perhaps in line with the interests of narrow and I think the country needs the type of organization of institutions and organizations that shape the decision and try to work on to be a decision mature and to be the result of study of specialists and experts and that the possession of the Agreement on the main political forces at the same time is consistent with the Constitution and in line with the interests of Iraq that you see most of the political forces or the vast majority because there are other parties trying to push Iraq to the axes of certain off-axis or the normal position which is supposed to live in Iraq and this is not consistent in which all Iraqis.
* The Iraqis do not feel that any achievements made them .. Before I came to you I asked an Iraqi citizen, what they want from the President of parliament to do for the people commented, saying, «There is nothing to check the Iraqis no electricity, no services, no security and economic improvement», what is your response? - the truth ..

Kurds their role primarily in Iraq and they enjoy the role of political, economic, and enjoy international relations distinct and this increases their weight in the political situation of Iraq, and the differences between the provinces and components and the political forces representing these provinces make the Kurds more important role and be a balancing factor in the country and I think that this role will remain until that stabilizes the state and there is a reference of constitutional and legal and clear and the lives of real democracy in Iraq.
* How do you see Iraq's external relations, the Arab world first, then regionally? - foreign policy is agreed, there are differences in the way the wording of the resolution or the strategic vision for Iraq and had this it be achieved through the Council of strategic policies, which we agreed upon in the agreement Erbil has not yet been implemented, as it was possible to turn this Council to the kitchen to the decisions of the task, including the Foreign Relations, Iraq's relations strained with the Arab world in general and this is very harmful because Iraq is an Arab country and around the Arab and must address differences properly and to find a way to open a stable relationship, this is not agreed upon and are convinced that the Iraqi people want good relations with the Arabs, but must be relations facing not only from our side, regional relations also are not clear, in general foreign policy Iraq has not achieved significant achievements have been unsuccessful in establishing and finding participants and controls and agreements in various areas of security, economic and political strengthen the situation in Iraq an Arab, regionally and internationally as well, relations with Turkey, for example, tense and with Iran are good, with Saudi Arabia, tense with Kuwait where blurry and with Jordan in the middle and with Syria now is not clear, although that Iraq has begun in line with the decisions of the Arab League against the Syrian regime. Foreign policy stalled and need to be reviewed, there are Iraqi political forces have good relations with Arab countries on the contrary the official policy and should take advantage of this diversity to achieve good relations with everyone within the common interests.
* As your side this, Iraq's relations strained the Arab world, then how will convene the Conference Arab Summit in Baghdad, and are you optimistic about the holding of this conference? - Congress agreed, and the Arabs promised to come to Baghdad, but you must create an atmosphere truly, we do not want a conference marginal represents the State and foreign ministers or ambassadors, but we want a conference bring Iraq to his world Arab and re-Arabs to Iraq. There is a specific date for the conference and Iraq face invitations and the Arab League, told us, through Ahmed Ben Helli, who visited me a few days ago that there is a decision the Arab collective audience and I'm still in doubt of this subject as there are still relationships are not clear and this depends on the coming days, especially with regard to the subject Syrian relations with Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Bahrain, all of these things will determine the size and type of participation, this conference is very important, Iraq emerged from the stage and entered a new phase and requires him to lead his role is clear and important role and the weight of Iraq.
* Finally, do you block Iraqi uniform? - Yes .. A united, strong and determined leadership to achieve its national program.
* But what is significant so far is that Ktltkm Iraq is still the loser in the political process has not been achieved with the agreement of Erbil and the initiative of Massoud Barzani, President of the Kurdistan region, almost anything especially the formation of high politics, and the meetings that took place between Iyad Allawi, leader of the Bloc Iraqi, and al-Maliki did not result from something that was things going on in a vicious circle .. - the truth is that the «Iraq» did not come to gain as much as they came to work on the reform of the conditions of this abandoned a lot of benefits that could be obtained if it abandons its Some methodologies and visions and policies that it believes are necessary to evaluate the track, but the (Iraqi) was positive and was always made the suffering of the citizens and claim their rights and privileges and the defense of the detainees and the rights of the provinces and the components of Iraq and its various, this was, and still primary concern is not to be fully realized certainly, but some provinces obtained partial rights and that there is a problem must be addressed, this will continue Ktltna to uphold its national and pressure toward the interests of citizens, and the interests of «Iraq» is to work on the survival of Iraq's unity and out of the retrenchment of sectarian, ethnic and establish a real democracy and abide by the constitution, we are on the way to achieve this , can not be achieved these things quickly, but now people are convinced popularity and conviction, political forces task even outside the «Iraq» and the world began seen that there is a problem in Iraq summed out for democracy after that there was a perception that Iraq has become a country fully democratic, this is what I tried Some parties suggest it, but Iraq is still on the road and «Iraq» is one of the Almthabat key to correct the political process in Iraq.
* you talk about democracy and here ask whether the Iraqi decision political, security or economic is a joint decision between the political forces to participate in the government? - no .. Not a common course, and this is one of the fundamental problems is that strategic decisions are not in consultation, even in the institutions concerned, which means decisions are made images of improvised and quickly regardless of the opinion of the partners, and after the decision is forwarded to the institutions in an effort to commit the rest of the Parties, and even economic decision not be agreed upon, I mean, some political forces adopt a certain approach and try to oblige others to this approach and this is not consistent with the public interest, perhaps in line with the interests of narrow and I think the country needs the type of organization of institutions and organizations that shape the decision and try to work on to be a decision mature and to be the result of study of specialists and experts and that the possession of the Agreement on the main political forces at the same time is consistent with the Constitution and in line with the interests of Iraq that you see most of the political forces or the vast majority because there are other parties trying to push Iraq to the axes of certain off-axis or the normal position which is supposed to live in Iraq and this is not consistent in which all Iraqis.
* The Iraqis do not feel that any achievements made them .. Before I came to you I asked an Iraqi citizen, what they want from the President of parliament to do for the people commented, saying, «There is nothing to check the Iraqis no electricity, no services, no security and economic improvement», what is your response? - the truth .. Not the picture bleak in this form and we can not say that he had not achieved anything, Iraq emerged from the stage was where the system of forced and state unfair and the rule imposes on the people how to live and how they behave and where political life, but life imposed on people by force, now there is diversity, there Press writes, a voice comes out through demonstration or through parliament, or through the satellite channels, now what I said you that people are talking about the officials, this new shift to a new situation and has no precedent, there are at least 3 million employees in Iraq changed their lives and increased their salaries and are now able to exercise their normal after improvement of their economic lot and this new shift, too, the elections are a way because the people choose who they want to achieve their interests, certainly there are people who can be interviewed officials and I meet every day large numbers of people after that apply normal and the ministers have days dedicated to interview citizens, As for the walls concrete security situation makes it imperative for the administrator to put this wall, there is a suicide bomber entered his car, killing the official and his family, guards and this happened, I'm not saying that's a black On the other hand there is also an assault on the dignity of people and the arbitrary arrests and the corruption of the state and exceeded the powers and the lack of real solutions to economic problems and the lack of economic vision mature and the absence of institutions mature, not to build a state in its final form, there is a conflict between the political forces, the conflict between the Kurdistan Region and the Centre, the conflict between the provinces and Baghdad due to encroach upon the powers, all of these things We hope to go beyond soon. There are things that have been made and things have not been achieved and the other made in violation, it is important that the Iraqi people began to know what he wants, knows he wants a stable democracy safe where the governor accountable, and where the charge under penalty of law, and that there be transparency in the disbursement of public money, and that there is respect for human rights, these things are not achieved, but there are committees working to correct some of the tracks there are committees for Human Rights and the High Commission for Human Rights in the early stages good for its formation.
