INA names Abdulmahdi as PM
September 3, 2010 - 07:18:32
BAGHDAD / Aswat al-Iraq: The Iraqi National Alliance (INA) announced on Friday that it agreed to name Vice President Adel Abdulmahdi as prime minister as the third figure nominated for the post after Iyad Allawi and Nouri al-Maliki.
“The INA agreed to officially name Abdulmahdi, a leading member of Ammar al-Hakim’s Supreme Islamic Iraqi Council (SIIC), for the prime minister post,” according to SIIC’s al-Furat TV station on Friday.
The INA had met earlier on Friday to take a final decision on naming their candidate for the post of prime minister despite a decision by Ibrahim al-Jaafari’s al-Islah (Reform) bloc and Ahmed Chalabi’s Iraqi National Congress (INC) not to attend that meeting.
It is not yet clear whether the INA would offer its named candidate Abdulmahdi to Maliki’s Dawlat al-Qanoon (State of Law) bloc as an alternative to Maliki.
The INA is a political bloc announced on August 24, 2009 to enter the country’s parliamentary elections. It encompasses the SIIC (20 seats), the Sadrist Movement of Shiite leader Muqtada al-Sadr (40 seats), al-Fadila (Virtue) Party under Hashimi al-Hashimi (7 seats), Jaafari’s al-Islah bloc (1 seat) and Chalabi’s INC (1 seat).
Iraq’s March 7 legislative elections had ended with the victory of main Iraqi political blocs as Allawi’s Iraqiya obtained 91 seats, followed by Maliki’s State of Law with 89 seats, Hakim’s INA with 70 seats and the Kurdistan Alliance of Iraqi Kurdistan Region President Massoud Barazani and Iraqi President Jalal Talabani as well as a number of Kurdish Islamic parties with 57 seats.
