Amid the longstanding political deadlock followed by the parliamentary elections in October 2021, the Coordination Framework, which is the largest bloc in the Iraqi parliament, nominated Mohammed Shia al-Sudani for the prime minister position.
Sudani will be tasked to form the next government after the selection for the presidency takes place in the parliament.
