Emphasizes the political blocs that Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi record pointing at the political part of the package of reforms launched by since the beginning of August this success. But the same blocs see that Abadi did not achieve a breakthrough in the two files and clear service and economic, describing his promises in this aspect as “a propaganda exhibition”. Congress is expected to turn the prime minister into a new austerity measures in the coming months with the increasing pressure of the financial crisis, likely to be “forced savings” imposed on citizens. In the meantime, see the parliamentarians that the renewal of confidence in Parliament to the Minister of Electricity as a “bad message” to the street, which demanded his dismissal. The decision to restore the House of Representatives, yesterday, not to vote on the dismissal of the Minister of Electricity reforms circle to zero, especially since Abadi committed himself, on 9 August now, a time ceiling is currently only for two weeks to find real solutions to the energy crisis. Abadi and decided, on 9 August now, a range of measures in the light of the breadth of popular protests condemning corruption and its impact on the electric power crisis. He also called on the religious authority, Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani Prime Minister to take decisive action against corrupt officials and hit all those involved with corruption “with an iron fist.” The reform package has included five areas: administrative, such as reducing the ministry and the restructuring of ministries and the abolition of consultants, financial to address the shortfall in the budget, the economic boost the economy and trade, service, the most attached to the movement of protests and represented a quick solution for electricity and monitor the work of the ministries, and the fight against corruption.

Abadi financial crisis

He says the leadership of the state law Jassim Mohammed Jaafar, in connection with the (range), that “al-Abadi has succeeded over the past 20 days the implementation of the first axis of reforms relating to the administrative side or as some call the political side.”

Jaafar said that “the prime minister was able to cancel his deputies positions and reduced the number of members of his cabinet to 22 members, has been canceled by the posts of Vice President of the Republic in addition to reducing the number of advisers in the state institutions.”

Conversely leader of the state law indicates that “al-Abadi has not succeeded so far in the financial file, which may take a long time to find to enhance the country that suffers a large deficit budget solutions,” expected to seek the prime minister to “new austerity measures because officials to reduce the salaries no longer enough. “

And he speaks and former Minister of Youth that “al-Abadi is facing a real crisis will become clearer during the next two months because the government is no longer able to pay the salaries of staff unless you find quick solutions to address the matter.”

It is likely MP Jassem Mohammed Jaafar said the government to “announce new austerity measures through what is known as the forced savings”.

Jaafar believes that “the prime minister also failed to resolve the power crisis,” considering the renewal of confidence in Parliament to the Minister of electricity as “a bad message to the street.” He says, “we did not find that the dismissal Fahdawi will improve electricity and found that survival in the ministry best of his departure, we also do not know who will be his replacement in the event of his dismissal.”

It is likely that “when the government has given a time limit to solve the power crisis, part of the reform package, was betting on low temperatures”, stressing that “the currently available production, which is estimated to 13 thousand MW, may be sufficient in the coming months.”

The demonstrations, which came out in late July, which broke out of Basra and then sparked moved to other provinces, may have arisen due to the high temperatures above the fifty Celsius and falling electricity, and demanded the removal of Fahdawi.

The MP for the coalition confirms its strong support for reforms Abadi, but they find themselves in front of many questions regarding the ability of the President of the Government to implement all those measures which promised to achieve them. She says, “I think it was a media and propaganda than it is real,” she says, “I do not think that what was spoken of by Abadi deliberate and according to a timetable or may achieve what advocated by the demonstrators.”

He also questioned the MP for Nineveh as “the departure of officials who are also respondents reformist decisions,” likely “to have some of them are still in power.”

Before that the parliament will vote on the fate of the electricity minister, al-Jubouri said “even if Parliament decided to dismiss Fahdawi, the electricity will not improve,” wondering about the “source of funds to be paid by the government to reform the energy reform in accordance with the terms of the paper as it faces a liquidity crisis?”.

Switch to Somalia again!

Conversely find MP Amin Bakr, a member bloc Kurdish change, that “al-Abadi has achieved a lot in the policy file under the reform package, but they need a legal adaptations,” stressing “the need not to bypass the Constitution as stated in the words of President Fuad Masum, a few days ago.”
