Iraq calls for adhering to constitutional deadline for PM-designate nomination

Iraqi President Nizar Amedi on Friday called on the Coordination Framework (CF), an umbrella alliance of Shiite parties and the largest parliamentary bloc, to adhere to constitutional timelines in nominating a prime minister-designate.



In a statement posted on his official account on the social media platform X, Amedi said that this is a constitutional obligation that cannot be delayed and a national responsibility incumbent upon everyone.



Expediting the process will strengthen political stability, ensure the proper functioning of institutions, and respond to citizens' aspirations for a government capable of fulfilling its duties and serving their interests, especially in light of the sensitive circumstances that necessitate prioritizing the country's higher interests, he added.
