BAGHDAD (Reuters) – Iraq‘s Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki said on Wednesday that he hoped to overcome the challenges blocking the formation of a new government, a day after the new parliament’s first session ended without agreement on top government posts.
“A state of weakness occurred but God willing in the next session (planned for next Tuesday) we will overcome it with cooperation and agreement,” said Maliki in his weekly televised address.
