WHAT HAPPENED

On 8 September, Shafaq News cited Coordination Framework sources saying its 7 September meeting saw friction and verbal exchanges between Qais al-Khazali, AAH’s secretary-general, and State of Law leader Nouri al-Maliki over proposed deputy-prime-minister posts. The report attributed the dispute to al-Maliki’s rejection of the proposal and said Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi attended the meeting.

    “The regular Coordination Framework meeting attended by Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi saw friction and exchanges between leading forces—al-Maliki and al-Khazali—because the State of Law leader rejected the deputy-prime-minister proposal.”

    شهد الاجتماع الدوري الذي عقده الإطار التنسيقي بحضور رئيس الوزراء علي الزيدي مناكفات وتنابز بين بعض القوى الرئيسة (المالكي والخزعلي) بسبب رفض مشروع نواب رئيس الوزراء من قبل زعيم دولة القانون

WATCH — WHAT WOULD MOVE THIS FILE

confirmation or denial by Sadiqoun or State of Law would settle the reported clash, while a revised deputy-prime-minister formula by 11 September would show that the dispute affected the appointment bargain; any of these moves this file.
