Iraqi PM to begin negotiations on forming new government
In a televised address, al-Sudani stated that his Reconstruction and Development Coalition emerged first in the vote and “will remain so.” He emphasized that the upcoming administration will “serve all Iraqis and protect the interests of everyone, including those who chose to boycott the vote.” “Iraq belongs to all and will remain for all,” he added.
Preliminary results from the Independent High Election Commission showed that al-Sudani’s coalition secured 411,026 votes in Baghdad, while nationwide voter turnout reached 56.11%.
Al-Sudani called on all parties to prioritize the country’s interests and respect the voters’ will.
“The next stage will focus on negotiations grounded in a unifying and responsible national spirit aimed at shaping the form of the new government — a competent government capable of implementing programs and commitments,” he said.
The premier affirmed that his coalition is “open to all parties without exception” and pledged to act “with objectivity, responsibility, and legality, in a manner worthy of the sacrifices of the Iraqi people and the confidence they have placed in the achievements and plans of their government.”
He concluded by underlining the goal of establishing solid agreements that respect the constitution and ensure meaningful participation for all in decision-making.
