Qais al-Khazali, AAH’s secretary-general, identified Dr. Laith al-Khazali as Sadiqoun’s deputy-prime-minister nominee on 11 September. On 12 September, legal expert Musaddaq Adel told Al-Ahad TV (AAH — official) that no constitutional impediment barred the nomination, called it a national decision free of U.S. dictates, said most Coordination Framework leaders lacked a unified position on vacant ministries and urged rapid settlement of electoral entitlements. State of Law MP Ali Shaalan then told the channel that deputy-prime-minister posts were agreed entitlements and presented no problem, without specifically naming Dr. Laith al-Khazali.
