On 3 October, Al-Ahad TV (AAH — official owned media) attributed to Sadiqoun General Assembly member Nour Jafat (AAH — Sadiqoun) the position that completing sovereignty requires passing the PMF law to preserve the rights of those who sacrificed. Reconstruction and Development Coalition member Ammar Yasser al-Janabi said his coalition was working with Sadiqoun (AAH — parliamentary bloc) for prompt passage and regulation of the PMF’s structure, praised Qais al-Khazali, AAH’s secretary-general, and said the legislative decision would be Iraqi and free of external pressure.

“His Eminence Sheikh al-Khazali’s call is important for all politicians to pass the PMF law and organize its structure. We are working with the Sadiqoun parliamentary bloc to pass the PMF law very soon. We sensed pressure against the withdrawal of foreign forces from Iraq. The decision to pass the PMF law will be distinctly Iraqi, without any external pressure.”
دعوة سماحة الشيح الخزعلي مهمة لجميع السياسيين لاقرار قانون الحشد وتنظيم هيكليته نسعى مع كتلة الصادقون النيابية لاقرار قانون الحشد الشعبي بالقريب العاجل لمسنا ضغوطا في عدم انسحاب القوات الاجنبية من العراق القرار باقرار قانون الحشد سيكون عراقيا بامتياز بدون اي ضغوطات خارجية
The difference concerns what counts as completed sovereignty: the prime minister names the coalition mission’s end, while Sadiqoun General Assembly member Nour Jafat (AAH — Sadiqoun) adds the PMF’s legal settlement.
