Iraq's Shiite Coordination Framework is deadlocked over selecting a candidate for prime minister, leading to the postponement of alliance meetings. An informed source within the coalition told Tasnim that differing views on the nomination formula caused a scheduled meeting to be canceled. Some factions are demanding full consensus among all Shiite movements, while others argue for an alternative selection mechanism that does not require unanimous agreement.
