AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 minutes ago

Cabinet Clock Reset: Iraq’s cabinet completion is now expected after Eid Al-Adha (around May 27), as political blocs pause CF meetings for the holiday and reshuffle nominees for the remaining ministries; Prime Minister Ali Al-Zaidi is set to pick preferred candidates before parliament votes, with Interior and Defense reportedly drawn from vetted security lists. Kurdish Deadlock: Kurdistan President Nechirvan Barzani urged unity to break the KDP-PUK impasse that has kept the Kurdish parliament largely inactive, while Masrour Barzani pressed Baghdad on constitutional rights and electricity know-how. CCHF Watch: Iraq activated anti-CCHF measures ahead of Eid, tightening slaughter inspections, tick-control spraying, and livestock movement rules. US-Iran Talks: Iran says progress exists but gaps remain in a 14-point peace proposal as US officials hint at possible movement in days; Trump’s messaging stays volatile. Regional Security & Memory: Airstrikes hit ISIS in Kirkuk, while al-Anbar mass graves tied to Baath-era abuses were identified.
