Shafaq News- Baghdad
Iraq’s Sunni National
Political Council (NPC) will select candidates for ministries allocated to
Sunni parties, including those assigned to the Al-Azm Alliance, Taqaddum
(Progress) lawmaker Ahmed Al-Masari told Shafaq News on Saturday, adding that
there are no objections to Jumaa Inad’s nomination for defense minister.
Al-Masari expected parliament
to hold a session next week to advance the formation of Prime Minister Ali
Faleh Al-Zaidi’s remaining cabinet, with negotiations among political blocs
still underway. Nominees, he said,
could come from Taqaddum, Al-Azm, or outside the two blocs as long as they
secure consensus among Sunni forces.
