No summer Recess For Parliament

[darock0116]

About 6:15am EST on CNN, they were reporting the Summit with Iraq. One of the reporters was talking about different things with the summit with foreign Minister Zabari. The one question she asked Zabari was, how congress was upset on how the Iraqi Parliament was going to take a summer recess, when there are major things that need to be resolved. Zabari said that there will be no summer recess, parliament will be there to work. I just watched this on CNN. I am trying to find a reference to from CNN, as soon as I do I will post it here. If anybody else seen it the post here. This is great news to start the morning with.:D

Rocko,

Let me "ax" you somethin'!

In reading the Posts by OS, he has the feeling that the RV is but a breath away. I would like to get your take on the situation. With all that is going on, one cant think otherwise. When do you think this will go down?

It all depends on the HCL. If parliament has approved it, it could RV anytime. If not then I say within the next two weeks!!! It has to before the Oil Summit at the end of the month!!!:D

[cooldolphins]

(which is TODAY, btw, right?)

[darock0116]

Just like it had to before the ICI. BS!!! Yea right HAAAAA!!!

It states that there are certain benchmarks that needed to be done with the ICI reference with the HCL. How is this BS???? Show me where it doesnt have to be.

[po-cajun]

They haven't meet a BENCHMARK yet!!!!

[geowhiz]

As long as parliament passes and enacts the HCl, and revals the currency to 1:1 or better, then they can take a year of vacation for all I care.

Let me guess, you have not bought ANY dinar, right. Because if you have, so far every post that I have read of yours has been mired in negativity. Negative thoughts do not serve me, so I kill those off anytime they pop in my mind. One could ask, do you WANT this to RV.?

Does not seem so!

[jeeptj05]

If this baby revals before the end of May (which I think:happy64: :happy64: it will) then why do we care if they take a summer break?

[darock0116]

This is the most idiotic comment I have seen on this forum. Not to be put you down or anything. You really need to read the ICI before you make comments like this.:D

[yunowu]

I would have to agree with you. Zabari looked very calm and relaxed on TV. When he made this statement he show strong support of getting things done now and not later.

Zabari Interview on CNN This Morning
CHETRY: Well, the biggest diplomatic push to help Iraq since the 2003 invasion is underway right now. Top diplomats from around the world, including U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, are meeting today and tomorrow in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt. Joining me from the conference is Iraq's own foreign minister, Hoshyar Zebari.

Mr. Zebari, thanks for joining us this morning.

HOSHYAR ZEBARI, IRAQI FOREIGN MINISTER: You're welcome.

CHETRY: Well you've heard, I'm sure, about the big political fight going on here in the U.S. about when American troops will withdraw from Iraq. Do you side with the Democrats who think that it's time for our troops to start leaving, or our president who says there is still a lot of work to be done?

ZEBARI: Our position, in fact, we are not supportive of any fixed timetable or any precipitous (ph) withdrawal from Iraq. This decision, I think, will be made on the ground, and the conditions on the ground will make those choices. We have a timetable, in fact, imbedded in the security council resolution, that every six months we have a review of the security council and if Iraq doesn't want its forces it can ask them leave. At the end of the year, we have another timeline where the security council resolution would be terminated. And unless Iraqi requests to renew it, then there would be no need for any continued mandate of the American or multi-national forces.

CHETRY: OK. Let me ask you about this though. We have countries around the world, and they're all gathering to help find solutions to stabilize Iraq. But there is some concern out there today over plans by the Iraqi parliament to take a two-month recess starting in July. How can they reach agreements on easing the sectarian tensions that are going on in your country if they're not meeting?

ZEBARI: No, in fact, we resolved that issue. The parliament, the Iraqi parliament, will continue to work. There won't be any long recess or summer holiday for two months. They have plenty of work to do to accomplish especially what we are doing. Our (ph) Baghdad security plan has some direct impact on some of the legislation and laws that they need to pass to agree.

CHETRY: Right.

ZEBARI: So that has been resolved. Members of the Iraqi parliament will be in session during this summer.

CHETRY: Oh, that's great to hear. Iran will have a representative at this meeting in Egypt. U.S. officials are accusing Iran of training and supplying weapons to militias in Iraq. Do you think that Iran is helping or hurting your country?

ZEBARI: Well, this is, for the first, time that both the United States, Iran and Syria and other countries are in the same room and discussing one subject, that is Iraq, Iraq security and stability. And we succeeded, in fact, in convincing everybody to attend this all- important meeting. I don't want to jump into any conclusion, but there is a great deal of goodwill among all the participants to have the efforts of the Iraqi government, because the consequences are devastating for not only for Iraq but for the neighborhood.

CHETRY: Right. That's very true.

ZEBARI: So that's why everybody has an interest.

CHETRY: Let me just ask you this quickly before we go. Al Qaeda in Iraq leader, Abu al-Masri, do you believe he's dead or alive?

ZEBARI: Well, we cannot confirm that. There has been some reports, as was the case with Zarqawi before. But at this stage, really, I cannot deny or confirm that report.

CHETRY: OK. Well, it was great talking to you, Iraq's foreign minister, Hoshyar Zebari. A lot of work to do. A lot of things to discuss in Egypt.

ZEBARI: Good speaking to you.

CHETRY: Have a great day. Thank you.
