The appointment of a new Iraqi prime minister drew a backlash from protesters who see Mohammed Tawfiq Allawi as little different from his predecessor
BAGHDAD—Iraq’s president on Saturday appointed a former communications minister as the country’s new premier after months of political deadlock, drawing a backlash from protesters who see him as little different from the predecessor they forced to resign.
Mohammed Tawfiq Allawi replaces Adel Abdul-Mahdi, who announced his resignation as prime minister at the end of last year after the country’s top cleric rebuked him for his handling of popular unrest that erupted in October.
