Alsumaria News / Baghdad

New leader of the Iraqi List, Iyad Allawi, on Wednesday, criticizing the remarks state law, a coalition leader Nuri al-Maliki recently that described the Iraqi as "a component of the Sunni", and asked him to clarify his position on the list and identity, stressing that Maliki's position will remain stuck to the dialogues on hold.

Allawi said in an interview with "Alsumaria News", "We are determined to continue dialogues to form a government in full, but we regret at the same time on the statements made head of state law, Nuri al-Maliki against Iraq, which we consider unacceptable," adding that "Iraq hopes to initiate Maliki to talk to her and shows it did not mean that the Iraqi list of a particular component. "

And suspended the Iraqi National List government negotiations with the state law on the day before yesterday, because of statements that described the "sectarianism", which was issued from the leader of a coalition of law Nuri al-Maliki, who described the Iraqi National List as a "Sunni bloc, if the formation of a government which does not include this component, the This government will be unstable ", while al-Maliki called on Iraq to apologize for the remarks.

In this regard, Allawi said that "if it did not show al-Maliki intent of his remarks, the negotiations with the law for the formation of the government can not take it," stressing that "Iraq is not a component of Iraq, but is a list representing the Iraqis, and therefore if he is willing (Maliki) in talk with the components, this is not our business, but would, Shan State law. "

Observers believe that the stop dialogues to form a government between the Iraqi List, won the first elections and Osifha rule of law, will create a fertile ground to open a second line to form a government between the Iraqi National Coalition, in particular that the latter are considered the strongest opponents to take over the head of state law, Nuri al-Maliki for a second term.

In a related development, The leader of the Iraqi List, Iyad Allawi, "the need to post stream free of the Sadrist movement in the process of forming the government, because they are an essential component in the Iraqi political process," explaining that "the process of forming the government will not move forward without that some of the forces present in this configuration at the head of these forces is the Sadr movement, because it is popular movement, a patriot. "

And held Iraqi List evening meeting at the home of its leader Iyad Allawi, with leaders of the bloc, the Free, Allawi stressed that "there are visions of a real almost identical between the two blocs, in addition to that coming days will witness intensive meetings and a row to reach the formulations is important for the formation of the government."

The pace of negotiations between the coalition of the state of law and Iraqi forces and the Kurdistan Alliance and the Iraqi National Coalition and Iraqi side have picked up shortly after to the U.S. proposal to share power between Iraq and Maliki's coalition, which provides for the survival of Iraqi Prime Minister outgoing Nuri al-Maliki, in office for second term, giving President of the Political Council for National Security for the Iraqi leader Ayad Allawi's list and positions of a sovereign function of the list to add to the Presidency of the parliament, but the negotiations were back to the deadlock after the Iraqi insistence on assuming the post of prime minister.

It seems that the conflict between the political blocs on the eligibility form the Iraqi government reached a climax, especially after the operations of mutual rejection between them and within them as their candidates for the post of Prime Minister, rejected the Iraqi List and the Iraqi National Coalition Maliki's nomination for a new term, while the coalition has rejected the national and coalition-Maliki, Allawi's nomination for the position as Sadrists reject any candidate of the Supreme Council for the post, while insisting the Council to nominate a person from within because he felt that the lack of access to the prime minister would mean putting his political future in the unknown, especially after the decline in the number of seats in parliament from 30 to 17 seats, almost.

The political blocs have failed to find solutions to end the crisis in the formation of the government and reach a dead end, after almost five months after the parliamentary elections in the seventh of last March, also failed to Iran and other regional states to find consensus between the political blocs to form a government, which made the U.S. Nations have increased fears of a collapse of the political and security situation in Iraq, especially with the approach of reducing the number of U.S. forces end of the month to 50 thousand troops.
