Who forced al-Sadr to contact al-Maliki?
After a long estrangement between the leader of the Sadrist movement in Iraq, Muqtada al-Sadr, and the head of the State of Law coalition, Nuri al-Maliki, and the "veto" that the former placed against the latter's participation in any future government, contact took place between the two parties in light of a state of The political impasse in the country.
Al-Sadr's office announced in a statement that the leader of the current had made phone calls with Masoud Barzani, Parliament Speaker Muhammad al-Halbousi, head of the State of Law coalition Nuri al-Maliki and head of the Sovereignty Alliance Khamis al-Khanjar, to discuss some important issues related to the current Iraqi situation.
The new development raised questions about the motives of al-Sadr’s contact with al-Maliki, and whether the former had lifted the veto over the latter’s participation in the government, in addition to the fate of reform, which the leader of the current had long talked about, accusing the owners of establishing corruption in the country and the fall of a third of Iraq to the hands of ISIS in 2014. .
Commenting on this, the Iraqi political analyst, Ali Al-Baydar, said in a press interview that "Al-Sadr's call with Al-Maliki was expected, especially after the decision of the Federal Court related to the parliament session related to the President of the Republic, which is the most important obstacle to naming the head of the new government."
Al-Baydar explained that "the court's decision implicitly obligated all parties to resort to the option of consensus, and without that no party could impose its will on the other," noting that "Al-Maliki was a major factor in disrupting the will of the Sadrist movement, so it cannot be easily bypassed and removed from the scene." ".
Al-Baydar believed that "several factors prompted al-Sadr to contact al-Maliki, the first of which is that the world seemed preoccupied with the Russian-Ukrainian crisis, and no longer cared much about Iraq, even at the regional level... The other matter is the existence of a state of discontent and popular discontent with the political system in the country and bearing the burden of everything that is going on." to Iraq, and this may bring back the protests, and if they return, it will be a mercy bullet in the body of the political system.”
He continued: "Therefore, this system sensed, albeit belatedly, the danger of the political closure the country is witnessing, and pushed towards resolving the situation, and therefore this contact was to restore the spirit to the negotiations that stopped between all parties and became unilateral."
Al-Baydar believed that "the rivalry between al-Sadr and al-Maliki is closer to a personal conflict than an ideological and systematic one, and this raised their standing among their audience."
The expert expected that "Al-Sadr will impose a conditional consensus, and in return, Al-Maliki cannot be excluded, because he has reached a degree of political mysticism and has become more like a theorist who presents initiatives and solutions, as he possesses popular, political, parliamentary and governmental influence, so he is able to overthrow the government that may be formed away from him." ".
In the same context, analyst and political researcher, Kazem Yawar, said in a press interview, “Al-Sadr’s call with Al-Maliki was remarkable and expressed the increasing confrontation of the leader of the Sadrist movement to embarrassment and pressure from the Iraqi street in light of the repercussions of the Ukrainian crisis on the economic scene in Iraq.” .
Yawar explained that "the high food prices in Iraq were expressed by the street in the south and center of the country with calls to go out in large demonstrations targeting the Sadrist movement, noting that the majority of the poor class is the main pillar of the movement's audience."
He expressed his belief that "Al-Sadr's advisors may have advised him to rush to form a government before political matters deviated from their constitutional tracks. For more than three months, matters have been in crisis after crisis, which prompted the current to recalculate in light of the inability to form a government of allies only, no Especially after the Federal Court’s decision that two-thirds of Parliament must be available to elect the president.”
And he added, "It is necessary to think about political alliances, and that al-Maliki is considered the most prominent political card within the forces of the coordination framework, as he owns the majority, so wherever he tends, the rest of the framework components will go with him."
Yawar pointed out that "Al-Sadr's contact with Al-Maliki has indications that the political scene is in a critical condition, and if everyone does not remedy and form the government, they will enter constitutional voids, and it is possible for the Federal Court to issue decisions up to the abolition of Parliament, and placing it under its legal and constitutional guardianship."
He pointed out that "Al-Sadr has a majority in Parliament, so he does not want to give up, and also wants to remain in control, in exchange for giving up things for the coordination framework that are not influential and not related to government decisions, and thus he gets the presidency of the government, and before that he got the deputy speaker of Parliament, and therefore The current is going through with this tactical movement the crisis of forming the government and distributing positions."
