Baghdad/Al-Masala Al-Hadath: There is still a state of uncertainty regarding the position of Muhammad Al-Halbousi regarding the presidency of the Iraqi Parliament. The Federal Court issued a decision to terminate Al-Halbousi’s membership in Parliament. However, Al-Halbousi continued to use the status of Speaker of Parliament, and continued to issue statements and hold meetings in this capacity.
In this regard, Al-Halbousi met on November 15, 2023 with the Prime Minister of Iraq, Muhammad Al-Sudani, and Jeanine Plasschaert, the Special Representative of the Secretary-General of the United Nations in Iraq, where Al-Halbousi used, through statements and tweets, the status of being Speaker of the Iraqi Parliament.
A political bloc confirmed, on Wednesday, that Sunni political forces have actually begun searching for an alternative to the former Speaker of the House of Representatives.
The Secretary-General of Bayraq Al-Khair, Muhammad Al-Khalidi, said, “The legal situation after the decision to terminate the membership of the former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Muhammad Al-Halbousi, means that the latter cannot manage any session, and this is a matter that no two people disagree upon, and there are legal mechanisms that determine the choice of an alternative.”
He added, “The Sunni forces have actually begun to look for alternative names for Al-Halbousi because he has become a thing of the past,” stressing that “the federal decision represents a historical achievement that no one disputes, and it requires accelerating the opening of important files, including the extreme wealth, transgressions, and violations that accompanied Al-Halbousi’s administration of the Council throughout the Council.” Years”.
He pointed out that “any attempt to politicize the federal decision does not serve the Iraqi issue, and the decision is purely judicial and came in accordance with specific legal contents, so you find all the legal elites agreeing with what it stated because it includes a clear formulation of the decision.”
Yesterday, the Federal Court issued an official decision to terminate the membership of Muhammad Al-Halbousi against the backdrop of the discovery of fraud in the case of former MP Laith Al-Dulaimi.
