Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi called on all main political sides in Iraq on Monday to interact with one another and reach an agreement to solve existing political crises.

Regarding the Iraqi government’s measures taken to improve the political condition of the region, the Iranian President emphasized the necessity of implementing agreements, welcoming the acceleration of interactive measures following the implementation of these agreements.

During a phone conversation with Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kadhimi, Raisi called on the Iraqi government to facilitate the transit of Iranian pilgrims, in regard to which Al-Kadhimi promised to take effective measures. On his part, the Iraqi Prime Minister affirmed that he would personally follow up on the issue to facilitate the presence of Iranian pilgrims.

Al-Kadhimi also pointed to the key role of Iran in the region and the world, stressing that he would continue his efforts to improve and promote the level of regional relations and cooperation.

On August 16, Al-Kadhimi met with top national officials and party leaders to discuss the political state of the country and the deadlock it is in. However, the leader of the Sadrist movement, Muqtada Al-Sadr, a key figure in the Iraqi political arena, did not attend the talks.

Al-Kadhimi's office said he had called for a meeting "to start a serious dialogue; intending to find solutions to the current political crisis."

The Iraqi Prime Minister had confirmed that the country's political crises must be resolved through dialogue.

Nearly a year after the country's general election, Baghdad is still running without a new government, prime minister, and president due to domestic disagreement about forming a coalition.

The Coordination Framework in the country wants to set conditions, and it is also demanding a transitional government ahead of fresh polls in the country. However, political rival Al-Sadr has been calling for the dissolution of parliament for months in order to pave the way for new elections.

Earlier in the month, supporters of the Coordination Framework in Iraq flocked to the entrance of the Green Zone to participate in a demonstration raising the slogan "supporting legitimacy and preserving the constitution," after a call by the Framework to the Iraqi people to demonstrate peacefully "to defend their state."

This came after supporters of the Sadrist movement demonstrated against the candidacy of Mohammad Shia Al-Sudani, who was nominated for the premiership by the Coordination Framework.
