Shafaq News/ The leader of the "National Wisdom" movement, Ammar al-Hakim met in his office in Baghdad on Thursday with Australian Ambassador to Baghdad , Joan Lundies.

Hakim warned during the meeting, "the Iraqi Parliament , the government and the judiciary of complacency in the implementation of the obligations contained in the document approved by the political forces."

Iraqi parties and political blocs, which met on Monday evening, signed an agreement to implement a number of measures and decisions to face   protests since October 1, and demand the departure of the ruling elite.

The document signed by 12 political entities highlighted the pledge to amend the electoral law to provide equal opportunities for independent candidates, the formation of a new election commission and a broad ministerial reshuffle "on the concepts of quotas."

The signatories urged the government and security agencies to "identify those involved in kidnapping demonstrators and continue the effort to discover those involved in hunting and killing demonstrators and targeting the media."

The political blocs gave the government and parliament 45 days to implement the reforms contained in the document. In the event of failure, political leaders "are obliged to move through their blocs in the parliament to alternative constitutional options to meet the demands of the people by withdrawing confidence from the government or early elections."

The signatories to the document represent most of the main movements participating in the government and parliament since 2003, including   Fatah Alliance led by Hadi al-Amiri, and the State of Law coalition led by Nuri al-Maliki.

More than 300 people were killed and thousands more injured during the demonstrations, which began on the first of last October, as a result of the security forces using excessive violence against the demonstrators.

The meeting comes in conjunction with the publication of leaked Iranian documents revealing the extent of Tehran's extensive intervention in Iraq, through spies penetrating into the political, security and military institutions in Iraq.
