Iraqi Shia Political Parties Meet to Discuss Replacement for Zurfi
TEHRAN (IQNA) – Iraq’s Shia political parties held a meeting to discuss finding a replacement for Adnan al-Zurfi as the prime minister-designate.
According to Iraqi sources, the meeting was held in Baghdad on Sunday, al-Mayadeen TV reported.
They have reportedly discussed introducing Iraq's Intelligence Chief Mustafa al-Kazemi as a candidate for the position of Prime Minister.
Many in Iraq have declared their opposition to the designation of Adnan al-Zurfi as Iraq’s prime minster, describing him as a corrupt politician, a CIA puppet, and a threat to Iraq’s domestic peace and security.
Iraqi President Barham Salih appointed Zurfi as the new prime minister in mid-March.
