Iraq’s President
Barham Salah named a new candidate for interim prime minister. He is the
ex-governor of Najaf Adnan Zurfi who is currently a parliamentarian for the
Nasr block led by former premier Haidar al-Abadi. He is already earning
opposition from some sectors, which means there will be plenty more
negotiations behind closed doors before he can even name a cabinet and a new
government.
