In another part of his remarks, the Head of the Supreme Council of Iraq called on all national forces to fully reassess intellectual, political and organizational process, emphasizing that the future government should be a government for the Iraqi people, not political parties.

Hamoudi set out the new Iraqi government to adhere to five priority plans for combating administrative and financial corruption in Iraq, not considering party quotas for state offices, a serious effort to support national production, and responsibility for educating young people, and supporting and enable women to participate in professional and scientific fields.
