Today's episode of "Beyond the News" program (08/2022) followed Al-Sadr's statements in which he confirmed that he would not participate in a secret dialogue or sit with those he called corrupt, and called on everyone to wait for his next step.

This is ahead of a planned decision by the Supreme Court to decide on the issue of dissolving Parliament.

In this regard, political analyst Wael Al-Rikabi wondered if direct dialogue would remove corruption from the political scene. The demand for a public session is supposed to call for reform, not to be in line with the current situation of the country, as it presents problems and trends that may not satisfy all parties.

With regard to dissolving parliament, he indicated that the Iraqi Judicial Council had previously stressed that parliament should not be dissolved except through constitutional methods that include a parliamentary session in which a president and prime minister of the country are elected.

He also saw that the refusal of all political parties to escalate and international intervention may lead to a smooth solution to the political crisis, noting that the coordination framework is ready to negotiate with the Sadrist movement about holding elections within a constitutional legal framework.

public conversation

On the other hand, Fattah Al-Sheikh, head of the media department at Iraq Sadr College - Al-Ahliyya University, said that Al-Sadr cut off the path of dialogue with the corrupt and considered it a futile path, as he chose not to engage in a secret dialogue, but to have the dialogue publicly transmitted on television screens so that the picture would appear completely for the Iraqi people. .

Regarding the guarantees that may satisfy the Sadrist movement, he accused the coordinating framework of reneging on its pledges more than once to hold them to power in any way without removing the corrupt from the political scene, and "therefore, the Iraqi street may have through public dialogue the final say in determining the good and the corrupt."

With regard to the judiciary that would consider the case for dissolving Parliament, he considered that the judiciary is not far from internal and external political pressures, calling for the judiciary to be strong and courageous, as he put it, so that it does not bear responsibility for the political crisis.
