(Iraqi National List) Still Undecided on Partaking in Next Government

Safiya al-Suhail, a member of the Iraqi National List, said the slate has not yet decided whether to participate in the next government or to act as an opposition force inside parliament. She added that the list is waiting for the report by the international team (of experts investigating fraud claims) and for the Independent Electoral Commission in Iraq to release its official election results. At that point, she said, the Iraq National List (a secular slate led by former prime minister Ayad Allawi) will make its decisions.
