The political tension ratcheted up several notches after Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki the issuance of an arrest warrant against Hashemi, according to article 4 terrorism, and sacking Deputy Prime Minister Saleh al-Mutlaq from his office after the described Maliki as a dictator.
The N.C. said there are discussions to reach consensus and resolve differences with Iraqiya List.

All political parties, including Iraqiya List, assert Vice President Tareq al-Hashemi’s case must be resolved by the judiciary away from political interference.
Spokesman for the National Accord Movement Hadi al-Dalimy said: “Iraqiya insists that Hashemi’s case should not be subjected to political discussions, but they must be resolved by the judiciary but on conditions that there must be a fair court hearing away from political pressure.”
Senior Iraqi politicians held talks with Maliki and other leaders to resolve the situation for fear of increasing the crisis that could take Iraq back into sectarian tension .
