 Iraq parliament elects Halbousi as speaker in first session since election

As speaker, he is responsible for maintaining legislative order, mediating disputes, and fostering consensus within Iraq’s sectarian and often fragmented political system.

The president will assign the largest parliamentary bloc the task of forming a government. Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani’s bloc won the most seats in the election, and the next administration will need to navigate complex pressures from both U.S. and Iranian influence, alongside the presence of numerous Iran-aligned militia groups.
