00:40 | 2022-05-3   "We have to look at the local issue," he stressedIraqAnd the surrounding regional events with a balanced and wise view that diagnoses errors and problems on the one hand, and notes the positives and opportunities on the other hand.”

On the local issue, he pointed outthe wiseTo several points, including:

First: Supporting and strengthening the positive parliamentary opposition.

He said, "Our parliamentary system must be strengthened from within the parliament itself by strengthening parliamentary work in two tracks, one of which takes upon itself the process of forming the government and bearing its consequences. The other tends to monitor, evaluate and highlight weaknesses in the executive work of the government. The balance between the legislative and executive authority is the essence of the parliamentary system." People have to find an alternative from within the parliament itself, at any moment when change is a necessity and a solution.”

He stressed that "it is not correct for everyone to participate in the government, and it is not correct for everyone to renounce the government's support and bear its consequences. There must be a supportive parliamentary body and an institution to form the government, and another party that monitors and positively stimulates within the space of democracy and the state of institutions."

and between the wise On the contrary, we will not find political stability for this system and we will remain in the cycle of flotation and accumulation of failure and throwing everyone into the box of failure, which increases the citizen’s frustration towards the political system and empties the legitimacy of the system from the citizen’s support and commitment to his duties and responsibilities towards his country.

He explained that "the failure to strengthen and empower the opposition from within Parliament gives the pretext to transfer objections and observations outside the parliament, exposing the country to new labyrinths of turmoil and popular discontent and expressing it in ways that make the challenges more complex and difficult to control."

Second: Forming a nationally balanced service government

Stressed the wise To expedite the formation of a nationally balanced service government in line with the magnitude of the great challenges surrounding the countryIraqFrom several aspects, the most prominent of which are the economic, environmental and social challenges. The strength of any government depends on the strength and cohesion of the parliamentary coalition formed for it, which requires that the government coalition be nationally balanced and expressing the majority of the largest component that takes upon itself the success of the government’s mission and the implementation of its ministerial curriculum.

He explained that "the current circumstances surrounding the task of forming a government are different from the previous circumstances, and there are political challenges that require attention and caution against ignoring them."

As indicated the wise To several points, most notably:

1- The withdrawal of the Sadrist bloc from Parliament does not mean their exit from the political scene, as they represent a large segment of our people who have always had political and service assets that deserve thanks and admiration, and we wished that Mr. Muqtada al-Sadr In his last decision as we are going through a critical and sensitive period.

And, "their exit from Parliament does not mean their exit from the national responsibility that calls for everyone to stand in support of building the state and facing challenges."

2- It is not necessary for there to be a radical change to the current government. There are positives that have been achieved during this period, and there are government institutions that have proven their effectiveness. Let us work on accumulating success and focus on addressing the imbalance and bridging the gaps of weakness. Let our first concern be to confront the serious challenges that surround us and the region, as comprehensive change requires A time that increases the complexity of the political scene in which we live today, unless there is a clear vision and a comprehensive political agreement that facilitates the process of forming a new government capable of meeting the needs of the current stage.

3- We call on the brothers in the Kurdistan region and urge them to expedite the decision of the presidential candidate and to look at this national entitlement with great responsibility..IraqThe position of the President of the Republic means all Iraqis, not only the Kurdish brothers, and it is too great to be deserving of one of the components of the country.

4- We renew our call for the necessity of issuing (the document of the strategic construction of the country), which includes binding time periods for the government that is given parliamentary confidence and to be held accountable for the percentages of achievement. The government focuses on specific priorities within clear timeframes so that the next government can complete what it has accomplished and continue implementing the correct foundations it has laid down. Thus, we can see you on the successes achieved and strengthen the building steps with a clear and stable vision.

5- We in the National Wisdom Movement renew our position not to participate in the next government, and this does not mean that we do not support the steps that contribute to the formation of the government as soon as possible, but we have chosen to focus on parliamentary work and support the brothers and partners in political work with any observation that contributes to the success of the mission of the next government.

Third: Comprehensive Political Reform

Announced the wise"Everyone agrees that the political process in Iraq It needs a comprehensive political reform, and despite the existence of a national agreement on that, there is a difference in views on how to start and the mechanisms of treatment, and this difference definitely affects the will to implement and hinders the process of proceeding with that reform, which has become necessary at the current stage. Here I warn against persisting in delaying the process Reform, because this will expose the existing political system to dangerous slippages from which no one will be spared, and I repeat (no one will be safe from it)."

Called the wise Proceeding from the national responsibility to achieve the following steps:

1- That a real and fair amendment to the current electoral law be made in order to achieve the justice required in the representation of districts, especially after the large gaps that were revealed in the waste of votes and the failure to take into account the real representation of some regions by merging them with other districts. The electronic counting and sorting mechanism in the elections must be reconsidered, and the electronic farce that we were exposed to in the last elections, which almost exposed the country to dangerous slides, had it not been for the care of God Almighty and the wisdom of the benefactors in this country, must be reconsidered.

2- Forming a Higher Council for Reconstruction in the country, consisting of experts in economics, planning and reconstruction, which takes upon itself the identification of strategic priority projects, especially in the field of economic, industrial and agricultural infrastructure, and facing the nightmare of unemployment among young people. Every dollar reduced from the volume of foreign imports will enable the state to provide job opportunities Local if there is a real vision and a strong and coherent economic structure.

3- Drafting deterrent laws against those who waste public money and giving wide powers to the supervisory bodies concerned with combating money laundering, bribery and all manifestations of financial and administrative corruption in state institutions.

4- Activating the Federation Council as stipulated in the constitution. There is a real defect in the formulation of the country’s general policies, and there is a clear shortcoming in the required parliamentary oversight role. There is also a great discrepancy between the entitlement of the governorates, especially after the experience of the well-known provincial councils and the absence of their representation for a long time.

5- Resolving fateful laws within clear timings, especially the oil and gas law, in a manner that ensures the presence of the region and the governorates that are not organized in a region in the management of oil affairs and the unity of the country’s oil policy and its federal administration and enhances the status ofIraqregional and international.

As for the regional and international affairs, I will summarizethe wiseWith key points:

1- The challenges and opportunities that the region is going through are not confined to one country without another..there is a common destiny that binds our Arab and Islamic peoples together. Or security or economic, everyone will be exposed to the same crisis, even if the damages vary, the world has become a small village and it is difficult to limit the crisis to one place, so it is dangerous for unbalanced regional alliances to form. This will expose the region to further disintegration and loss of constructive opportunities to calm the region and go towards stability .

2- Iraq has a pivotal and important role in supporting the stability of the region, and we must proceed from this confidence in the real historical opportunities that Iraq possesses in exercising the required role for a country like Iraq, with its regional weight and historical depth that enables it to play a pivotal role between its Arab brothers and Islamic countries in the region. That Iraq remain within the logic of positive neutrality, away from entanglement with conflict and disintegration!

3- We reiterate the need to find quick and decisive solutions regarding the water file with upstream countries, especially neighboring Turkey. We have a real crisis in the water file. If crises are left without practical solutions, it will be very difficult in the future, especially with a neighboring country with which we have many ties of brotherhood and common interests.

4- The continuation of the Russian-Ukrainian crisis with the inability of the international community to stop this depleting war for both sides raises alarm bells for the region and the world. In the near future.

Al-Hakim called on the Arab League and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation to confront the effects of this new global formation and to spare the countries of the region the negative and dangerous effects on the security of our peoples, the future of our generations, and the wealth of our country.

And he concluded his sermon by saying: "May God protect our people, the peoples of the region and the world from all evil, and may God protect our great references, especially the supreme authority, Imam al --Sistani (his abundant shadow lasted), and have mercy on our righteous martyrs with his wide mercy, especially the two martyrs, the Sadrists, the martyr of the mihrab, the dear Iraq, and peace, mercy and blessings of God be upon you."   LINK
