Saraya al\u2011Salam separation from the Shiite National Movement and its full integration into Iraqi state institutions has been officially welcomed by Parliament Speaker Mohammed al\u2011Halboosi.<\/p>\n
The development follows an announcement by Shiite leader Muqtada al\u2011Sadr declaring the complete disengagement of the armed formation from the movement and its incorporation under state authority.<\/p>\n
The move comes amid renewed calls to consolidate weapons under state control and strengthen institutional authority in Iraq.<\/p>\n
In a statement carried by the Iraqi News Agency, Halboosi said he highly values what he described as the responsible national position taken by al\u2011Sadr regarding the separation of Saraya al\u2011Salam and its full integration into state institutions.<\/p>\n
He described the step as significant in supporting state authority, enhancing stability, and reinforcing the rule of law.<\/p>\n
Halboosi noted that Iraq had experienced exceptional circumstances in recent years, including wars and major security challenges that shaped the nature of that period. He added that the country is now moving toward reconstruction and long\u2011term stability, which requires strengthening state institutions and enabling them to perform their full role in maintaining security and serving citizens.<\/p>\n
The Parliament Speaker called for continued responsible national steps that contribute to restricting weapons to the state, adhering to the constitution and the law, and avoiding tensions or divisions.<\/p>\n
He stressed the need to build a strong state capable of confronting internal and external challenges while safeguarding Iraq\u2019s sovereignty and protecting the interests of its people.<\/p>\n
Muqtada al\u2011Sadr announced on Wednesday the complete separation of Saraya al\u2011Salam from the Shiite National Movement and its full integration into the state under the authority responsible for military formations.<\/p>\n
In a statement carried by the Iraqi News Agency, al\u2011Sadr said the decision was taken in the national interest and to avoid risks facing the country.<\/p>\n
He added that civilian entities affiliated with the formation would be transformed into a civil framework under the name \u201cAl\u2011Bunyan Al\u2011Marsous,\u201d without headquarters, weapons, uniforms, or any military designation.<\/p>\n
Al\u2011Sadr expressed appreciation to members of Saraya al\u2011Salam for their past efforts.<\/p>\n
In a separate statement, al\u2011Sadr called on the British government to hand over individuals he described as Baathists and infiltrators residing in London, saying their presence represents a political and diplomatic gap.<\/p>\n
He said he had been informed that the British ambassador claimed that Britain had handed power to Shiites in Iraq, a statement that he said angered and saddened him.<\/p>\n
Al\u2011Sadr stated that he found it appropriate to respond to what he described as claims made by the former major power\u2019s ambassador.<\/p>\n
The Saraya al\u2011Salam separation carries several political and security implications, including:<\/p>\n
Strengthening the principle of state monopoly over weapons
\nReinforcing institutional authority
\nReducing potential political or field tensions<\/p>\n
The practical implementation of the decision will be key in determining its impact on Iraq\u2019s internal stability.<\/p>\n
The announcement of Saraya al\u2011Salam separation and its integration into state institutions marks a significant development in Iraq\u2019s political landscape. Official praise and calls for consolidating weapons under state authority highlight the broader push toward institutional stability and sovereignty.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
