Iraq’s parliament has voted to extend the deadline for a draft Iraq constitution. Religion and federalism are two issues in particular under dispute by the assembly. The new deadline is August 22nd.
Peter Galbraith, former U.S. Ambassador to Croatia joins On Point from Baghdad. Galbraith has worked extensively with the Kurdish people in Iraq, and says the larger problem is that the three major ethnic groups coming together to create the Constitution are too different to find a middle ground.
Guests:
Peter Galbraith, former US Ambassador to Croatia, currently Senior Diplomatic Fellow at the Center for Arms Control and Non-Proliferation in Washington DC.
