PRESIDENT TALIBANI SEEKING 2nd TERM
Around 15 March 2009 Iraq President Talabani announced that he was not going to seek a second term and was going to retire and write his memoirs if I recall correctly. Well, now he has changed his mind and will be seeking a 2nd term as Iraq President.
With all the problems with Kirkuk, Power sharing, Peshmerga’s, Oil and Gas law, PKK and PUK politics and list of other things I guess he wants it all worked out before he hangs up his hat.
Plus I bet he would miss all the plane rides to exotic places and all those bennies..I am joking. I know he cares about Iraq and all Iraqi’s.
The national elections are in December 2009 or early 2010.
