The Sadr alliance declares support for Al-Zurfi

05 - 09 April 2020

Members of parliament of the “Sa’eeron” coalition, the largest group in the Iraqi parliament that is led by Muqtada al-Sadr, announce their support for the Prime Minister-designate, Adnan Al-Zurfi. The position of the Sadr alliance stands in contrast to the Shiite political blocs, which stresses its rejection of Adnan Al-Zarfi, claiming that he is “unconstitutional”, and that he is “close to the United States”. Eight Iraqi armed factions demand that the political forces announce their rejection of Al-Zurfi. As a reaction the latter resigns from his appointment as Prime minister-designate. In the following, President Barham Salih assigns intelligence chief Mustafa Al-Kazemi who has good ties to all major players on the Iraqi scene. Protesters across Iraq had rejected the appointment of Al-Zurfi and immediately announce their rejection of Al-Kazemi.
