Nujaifi’s nomination disturbs political balance – Kurdish MP

BAGHDAD / IraqiNews.com: MP Firyad Rawundozi from the Kurdistan Alliance (KA) on Monday said that the Iraqi National List’s (INL) nomination of Osama al-Nujaifi for the position of Parliament’s speaker is “constitutionally correct,” but “disturbs political balances.” “Nominating al-Nujaifi for this position is a correct step from a constitutional perspective,” Rawandozi told IraqiNews.com news agency. “But political balances play a major role in this regard,” he added. Earlier, Lawmaker Osama al-Nujaifi said that his parliamentary bloc, the Iraqi National List has officially nominated him for the position of the council of representatives’ speaker. MH (P) / SS 1
