Iraqi prime minister’s task not an easy one
Amid the security, political and social unrest, the tasks of Iraq’s prime minister-designate, Haider al-Abadi, will be hindered if the people do not unite.
The tasks entrusted to Iraqi Prime Minister-designate Haider al-Abadi are primarily constituent tasks that entail a range of highly complicated responsibilities to be assumed amid great obstacles and impediments.
The new Iraqi prime minister will be dealing with a country that is rapidly rolling toward the abyss, since there is no longer a real guarantor capable of saving the unity of Iraq because of the depth of the differences plaguing the parties and spreading in social environments, which makes them more open to the idea of division. Moreover, extremist armed organizations control a great part of the country, and they continuously seek to expand, acquire human and economic expertise, while ensuring their long-term survival. These are all factors that complicate the task of the next prime minister, who has the greatest executive powers in the country.
This prime minister will inherit a government that failed to provide minimal internal consensus and agreement between Baghdad and the Kurdistan Region, among the provinces, among different Iraqi political representations and among the legislative, judicial and executive institutions of the political system.
But the task of the prime minister is not impossible, since there are always ways to provide solutions, even if they are difficult and painful and require sacrifices and concessions.
