| BAGHDAD / Aswat al-Iraq: Iraqi Vice President Tareq al-Hashemi has called on political blocs to accept a peaceful rotation of power, lashing out at those who speak about the formation of a quota-based government. This came on the sidelines of a ceremony held in Baghdad to distribute donations to those who have been harmed by the “Bloody Wednesday' bombings. Hashemi said that the return to the “sectarian' quota system will end up in a dark tunnel. |
