Iraq: Government Formation and Performance

Abstract

Elections in 2005 produced a permanent constitution and a broad-based but Shiite-led government that has been unable to reduce Sunni popular resentment and might be fragmenting. U.S. officials are urging Iraqi leaders to complete efforts to achieve national reconciliation; these efforts, a key part of the FY2007 supplemental appropriation (P.L. 110-28) are proceeding far more slowly than expected but are not completely deadlocked.
