 It is expected that the country will have a new government next April, as it is hoped that Parliament will announce the holding of a new session to elect the President of the Republic after mid-March. On Sunday, Parliament opened the door for nomination for the third time to fill the position after the recent Federal Court decision, and for a period of 3 days. According to Article 76 of the Constitution, the President of the Republic (after his election) assigns the candidate of the largest bloc to form a government. Indications are emerging that the current Prime Minister, Mustafa Al-Kazemi, has great chances of obtaining a second term.On the other hand, parties from the Shiite "coordinating framework" are considering putting forward the name of former Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi. The "triple alliance", which includes the Sadrist movement, Sunni forces and the Kurdistan Democratic Party, has intensified its dialogues during the past two days. President election dayAbdul Salam Barwari, a member of the Kurdistan Democratic Party, told Al-Mada that "on the tenth day of the day parliament opened the door for candidacy for the post of President of the Republic, the parliament can hold a session to choose the president." And within Article 76 of the constitution, the formation of the new government is within “15 days from the date of the presidential elections.” Last Saturday, Parliament voted to open the nomination for the post of President of the Republic, following a judicial decision to cancel the list of second candidates.
