BAGHDAD / NINA / MP, of the State of Law Coalition, from the State of Law coalition, Sadiq al-Labban called Prime Minister, Haider Abadi not to respond to external pressures for naming security minister.

He said in a statement to the National Iraqi News Agency / NINA / "The decision of appointing the ministers of defense and interior should be a purely Iraqi agreed upon by all the political blocs, urging not to obey foreign interventions, which may cause problems between the political blocs."

He explained that "Abadi is able to choose competent ministers in coordination with the political blocs, calling on all States not to interfere in the internal affairs of the country, pointing out that" the intervention of some countries in the decision of assigning the security ministers would have a negative effect by the Iraqi people toward the government.

The Kurdish independent former MP, Mahmoud Othman said yesterday: "The American influence on the prime minister Haidar al-Abbadi will be present in the naming of the ministers of defense and interior."

Othman added that "the United States formed an international alliance against the terrorists of the Islamic State to eliminate it and informed Iraqi authorities that Iraq is an important part in the process of responding to this organization, therefore it wants to be the security minister close to its orientations, so to coordinate with them in the war against (IS)" ./ End
