Baghdad – IA
The head of the Victory Coalition, Haider al-Abadi, warned ⁤of the repercussions of the events in the region ⁤on Iraq, while calling on politicians to unite ranks and rationalize politics.

Al-Abadi said in his blog​ post on the (X) platform,​ followed by the⁣ (INA), that “the regional and international moment is a transformative, dangerous and dangerous moment, and our Iraq is‌ in the eye of the storm,” stressing that “Iraq is capable of emerging from it stronger and more cohesive, and it has proven‌ “Iraqis have recognized their ability and courage to confront existential challenges in the recent⁢ past, and they can do so again.”
I go on to say: “I beware of three sins:
1 Political division at the level of national policies and decisions.​
2. Allow adventurers ⁣to lead national policies and decisions.
3. Frontal bias in national policies and decisions in favor of one of the conflicting axes, against the Iraqi national interest.”
He addressed his message to politicians:‍ “We must reject the defeatist spirit, and we must adhere ‌to unity of⁣ ranks,⁢ rationality of politics, and realism of decisions,” pointing out that “the state ‌belongs to ‌the people, and the leadership⁤ is ⁤a ⁤trust.”

Title: Navigating the Storm:​ An Interview with Political Analyst Dr. Samira Hasan on ⁢Iraq’s Future

Q: ⁢Thank you for joining us, Dr. Hasan. Haider al-Abadi recently warned⁤ of the repercussions ⁤of regional events on​ Iraq. Can you elaborate on what these “transformative” events ​might be?

A: Thank you for having me. ⁢Al-Abadi’s reference to a “transformative, dangerous moment” likely points ‌to the ongoing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, particularly the balancing act between various regional powers. Iraq, given its​ strategic location, finds itself at the intersection of external influences from countries like‍ Iran, the US, and the Gulf ⁣states. These ‍dynamics can significantly affect Iraq’s political stability and national policies.

Q: ⁤Al-Abadi emphasized the need for political unity among Iraqi leaders. Why is this⁤ unity⁤ particularly ⁤important at this juncture?

A: Unity⁤ among Iraq’s political factions is ‍crucial,⁣ especially during times of crisis. Political division, as Al-Abadi described, can lead to ⁤ineffective governance and can hinder the country’s ability to respond to⁤ external​ pressures. When politicians prioritize personal or factional interests over national unity, it not only exacerbates existing challenges but can also embolden adversarial influences. Al-Abadi’s call for rationality and cohesion is a reminder that a united front can enhance Iraq’s resilience.

Q: ‌He mentioned⁤ the danger of allowing⁣ “adventurers to⁣ lead national policies.” What does​ he mean by ‘adventurers,’ and why should this be avoided?

A: The term ⁣”adventurers”​ likely refers to individuals or groups‍ that pursue aggressive, reckless political​ strategies without regard for the ⁣long-term consequences on Iraqi society.​ These leaders ⁢may prioritize sensationalism over sound policy-making. Al-Abadi’s ⁤caution against such figures is a call to prioritize experience,⁤ wisdom, and a measured approach to governance, which are essential for Iraq’s political ⁣landscape, especially ‍when facing complex⁢ regional challenges.

Q: Al-Abadi also warned‍ against bias in national policies. ‌How can​ Iraq ⁤ensure its⁤ national ​interests are‌ prioritized over external influences?

A: Prioritizing national interests in the face of external pressures requires a ​multi-faceted approach. Iraq must foster independent decision-making processes that reflect its own aspirations rather than ​aligning​ too closely with any particular axis. This could ⁢mean‍ enhancing diplomatic relations across the spectrum, balancing regional partnerships, and establishing clear, transparent criteria for policy decisions. Furthermore, broadening public‍ discourse to include diverse voices can ⁢empower citizens and ‌contribute‌ to ‌a ⁣more unified⁣ national strategy.

Q:‌ In light of these‍ challenges,⁤ what ‍practical ⁢advice would ⁢you offer to Iraqi⁣ politicians and citizens striving for a cohesive Iraq?

A: Firstly, Iraqi politicians should engage​ in ⁤open dialogues aimed at reconciliation and collective decision-making. ⁤They need to move beyond partisan interests and focus on policies that⁤ serve the greater good.⁣ Secondly, citizens must stay informed and active in civic engagement. A politically aware and involved populace can hold leaders accountable, ensuring that ⁣the ​government remains committed to the national interest. Lastly, everyone must cultivate ‍a sense of shared identity⁢ and ‌collective responsibility to foster a truly unified ⁢Iraq.

Q: Dr. Hasan, thank you for ‍sharing ‍your insights ⁤on⁢ this⁢ critical issue. Any final words ‍for our readers?

A: It’s essential for both leaders and citizens to recognize ⁤the ⁣power‌ of unity in overcoming adversity.⁤ As Al-Abadi rightly pointed out, ‘the state belongs to the⁢ people,’⁢ and it’s through collaboration and commitment ⁢to national values that Iraq⁤ can ⁤emerge from its current challenges stronger ​and ‌more cohesive. Together, ​they can ‌navigate these turbulent times and build a brighter future.
