Iraqi President officially assigns Maliki to form a government
Thursday, November 25th 2010
Baghdad, Nov. 25 (AKnews) – A member of the National Coalition (NC) reported today that President Jalal Talabani has officially named Nouri al-Maliki as the Prime Minister, thus allocating to him the task of forming a government.
The NC’s Ali al-Dabbagh told AKnews that the new Iraqi Prime Minister must now form a government within the constitutionally decreed 30-day time limit.
Following his re-election to the Presidency on Nov. 11, Mr. Talabani informally announced that the NC leader and former PM, Nouri al-Maliki, would retain the premiership for a second term.
Earlier this week Mr. Maliki asked all parliamentary blocs to nominate their candidates for the different ministries which will be allocated, in part, according to a point system based on the number of seats each bloc attained in the March 7 elections.
Upon the introduction of the point, lawmakers were keen to assert that each nominee’s background, skills and experience will also play an important role in the selection process.
Many of the blocs have already staked claims on the key Finance and Oil Ministries, indicating that the task of forming a cabinet that will satisfy the different factions on the Iraqi political arena is going to be something of a challenge.
