He wrote his opinions to try to find a compromise, so all sides are now studying it. |
How can we vote when we saw nothing of the last budget? |
I am happy about this decision because I want this to be done democratically, even though we support the constitution. |
I can't predict a timetable for forming the government. All these important points need thorough study. If they can't reach an agreement, then there will be a problem. |
I don't think anybody is in a hurry. They are completely out of touch with the voters. |
I expect that there still will be difficulties over choosing the prime minister. |
I think it's a double standard, and it's unfair. |
I think that their interference is bad, and it further complicates issues because this is an Iraqi matter. |
I think we will resume talks in a few days. We will also try to calm things down and get the (Arab) Sunnis again to sit at the table with everyone. |
If concessions are made to the Sunnis to make additions to the constitution, then the other parties want a guarantee from the Sunnis that they will vote back the constitution at the referendum. But there are no guarantees. |
If the position of the Shiite alliance is final, then things will be more complicated and the formation of the government might face delays. |

If we'd had more time, it would have been possible to get Sunni participation. When Oct. 15 comes, many won't even have seen the constitution. |
Iraq is in a very delicate situation and has problems with foreign forces, so we need a government of national unity that should include the Shiite list, Kurdish coalition and the Sunnis. When everyone is together, the problems will be less. |
It is not good to have a constitution that would limit the liberties of people, the human rights, the freedoms. |
