Press TV-Middle East Today | October 23, 2010 - Iraq remains in a cycle of uncertainty as its incumbent Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki is on a regional tour to gather support for his bid for premiership. Maliki's tour included a visit to the Islamic Republic of Iran where the Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Sayyed Ali Khameneie, called on political factions in Iraq to reach a consensus on forming a new government. Maliki's main rival for premiership, Eiad Alawi, is also trying to garner support.
The questions raised by Mariam Saleh in this edition of Press TV's Middle East Today:
Have the Iraqis questions been solved and finalized behind closed doors between regional powers or are there other complications in the way of reaching consensus?
