Khafaji stated to Iraqi News (IraqiNews.com) “The best solution to resolve the current crisis and end the demonstrations that are sweeping a number of Iraqi provinces is the resignation of the PM al-Maliki.”

We address the PM “If you believe in democracy then you have to meet the demands of the demonstrators with which those protests will be finalized and things return to normal.”
