On 29 September, Watan TV (Badr Organization — affiliated) captioned a programme guest identified as al-Azirjawi proposing Ataa and Maliki for Interior and Khazai for Higher Education. The caption attributed to him the claims that Sunni political forces wanted appointments agreed as one package and that the Coordination Framework rejected that approach. These were the guest’s proposed names and account of negotiations, not announced appointments.

“Al-Azirjawi: Ataa and Maliki for Interior, and Khazai for Higher Education; the Sunni forces favour a single package, and the [Coordination] Framework does not accept that.”
الازيرجاوي : عطا و المالكي للداخلية والخزاعي للتعليم العالي ، القوى السنية مع السلة الواحدة والإطار لا يقبل بذلك !
a formal nomination for either ministry, a Coordination Framework response on the package, or a response from Sunni political forces by 2 October would move this file; any of these moves this file.
