Iraqi Shiite leader Muqtada al-Sadr said yesterday that there was no room for sectarianism, racism, militancy or corruption in the country’s next national majority government. Al-Sadr tweeted on his personal account today on the social networking site Twitter: “There is no place for sectarianism, no place for racism, no place for corruption, no place for militants, and everyone will defend the rights of minorities, Shiites, Sunnis and Kurds in a national majority government.”
“All Iraqi factions will support the reform and support the military, police and security forces, and the rule of law will prevail with the impartial Iraqi judiciary. “
According to the Iraqi parliament, MP Mahmoud al-Mashhadani will preside over tomorrow’s opening session of parliament because he is the oldest member.
