Maliki Discusses With New U.S. Ambassador Formation of Govt.
August 19, 2010
BAGHDAD / Aswat al-Iraq: Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki discussed on Thursday with the new U.S. Ambassador in Baghdad, James Jeffrey, the latest political developments and talks to form the government of national unity.
“Maliki received at his office to Iraq the new American Ambassador James Jeffrey on the occasion of starting his mission in Baghdad,” said a media statement received by Aswat al-Iraq news agency.
“Talks tackled the latest political developments and the ongoing talks to form a government of national unity,” said the statement received by Aswat al-Iraq news agency.
“For his part, the U.S. diplomat reiterated his country’s support to the political and democratic process in Iraq and the efforts to form the government,” the statement added.
Differences are heating up among the al-Iraqiya, which obtained 91 seats, and Maliki’s Dawlat al-Qanoon (State of Law), which came second with 89 seats, to win the post of prime minister for the new government.
Incumbent Iraqi Prime Minister Maliki’s bloc struck a coalition with Ammar al-Hakeem’s Iraqi National Alliance (INA), together having 159 seats, in a bid to form the largest parliamentary bloc, a matter viewed by Allawi’s al-Iraqiya as a twisting of democracy on the grounds that his bloc was the largest one with votes in the elections and consequently has the right to form a government.
