Sleeper cells are present in the Baghdad belt, and the situation requires an emergency regiment from the people of the regions.

The leader of the State Forces Alliance, Hassan Fadam, during a televised interview:

We are accustomed to the speech of the Democratic Party in every budget
– The persistent intransigence of the Democratic Party delays approving the budget
Parliament is reluctant to vote on Barti’s demands for fear of his lack of commitment
The budget will pass even if the Democrat adheres to his decision
The Democrat accuses the people’s representatives in abusive terms
The Kurdish parties are the beneficiaries of the share of the region, not the people
The parties of the region abandoned Baghdad and held the referendum at sensitive moments
The current budget formula is not written in the political agreement
There is absolutely no breach of the political agreement
The Democratic Party sells the region’s oil and does not deposit money in any account
– The Central Bank or the Ministry of Oil does not know where the region’s oil money is deposited
– The region demanded the opening of a bank account under its supervision and a contract with a company whose money Baghdad would pay for auditing
– The Office of Financial Supervision in the region is illegal
– The region believes that the parliament of Baghdad is similar to its parliament, “walking with remote control on the money of their president.”

The terms “older brother” or “younger brother” are used at home, not in the political process
We have full confidence in the Sudanese government and most of the parties in the state administration coalition

Those who included the Finance Committee’s amendments are a minority in their party

Former deputy of the Finance Committee, Muhammad Al-Shabki, during a televised interview:

The Finance Committee has completed the last items related to the budget

Delaying the budget affects the financial and economic situation of the country
– The current problems about the budget items are similar to the problems of Article 11 in the 2021 budget
– The “Democratic Party” is not serious and does not want to settle financial matters with the center
