The leader of the Sadrist movement in Iraq, Muqtada al-Sadr, announced his agreement to participate in a dialogue with all parties in the country, but on the condition that the dialogue be public.

In his statement, he pointed out that “the first step towards reforms in Iraq is the non-participation of the old faces, their parties and individuals in the next government. He added that he agreed to the dialogue if it was public, “emphasizing” the need for restraint and not resorting to violence and weapons from all sides.”

Al-Sadr emphasized: “The Iraqi people strive to form a government free from corruption, dependency, militias and foreign interference, to be an independent and stable government that serves its people and not the interests of its parties and sects. Al-Sadr also called on neighboring countries to respect Iraq’s sovereignty and ensure its security.”

This is accompanied by speculation that the obstruction of the political horizon in Iraq will remain unresolved for a long time to come, especially after today, Tuesday, and during the Security Council hearings on Iraq, no decisive decision was made other than a call for calm and -escalation.
