Halabousi as speaker of the Iraqi parliament by a majority vote

169 votes out of 251 attended the session ...

15/09/2018 - 15:00 Iraq

Iraq's parliament on Saturday elected the former governor of Anbar, Mohammed al-Halbusi, as the new speaker of parliament by majority vote.

Halabousi won 169 votes out of 251 deputies attending the session, compared with 89 votes for former Iraqi Defense Minister Khaled al-Obeidi.

Mohammed al-Halbusi was born in the town of Karma in Anbar province in 1982.

In 2014, he was elected as a deputy in the Iraqi parliament, but he resigned from parliament on 29 August 2017, after being elected by the Anbar Provincial Council as a new governor, replacing former governor Suhaib Ismail al-Rawi.

Halabousi won the Iraqi parliamentary elections on 12 May last "block solution".

Sooooooo what does this mean in the scheme of things? Does anyone think it will affect the reconstruction in a positive manner?

Iraq elects ‘pro-Iran’ Speaker

Baghdad, September 15
The Iraqi parliament elected the candidate of a pro-Iran list as speaker on Saturday, paving the way for the formation of a government more than four months after legislative polls.
The country has been in political paralysis since the May 12 ballot, but the election of a speaker is expected to solidify new parliamentary alliances. The lists elected during legislative polls must first form coalitions. The bloc with the most members appoints the PM and presides over the formation of the next government. The pro-Iran bloc led by Hadi al-Ameri’s Conquest Alliance — a coalition of anti-jihadist veterans close to Tehran — looked positioned to take the lead after the election of its candidate, Mohammed al-Halbusi. Born in 1981, he will be the youngest speaker of parliament in Iraq’s history.
