Current Affairs PDF June 2012 Page 20Iraq has been facing an unrelenting sectarian violence between the Shiites and Sunnis in thecountry. Sunnis, who are in the minority in the country, perceive the Shiite Prime Minister NuriKamal al-Maliki is attempting to sideline them. The unceasing political crisis began in thecountry following an arrest warrant issued for the Sunni vice president, Tariq al-Hashimi, forallegedly being involved in terror activities and for funding attacks on government and securityofficials during Iraq's bloody insurgency. The move was viewed by the Sunnis as tantamount tosegregate them.Later Sunni leaders in alliance with Kurdish lawmakers tried to topple the Shiite prime minister,Nuri Kamal al-Maliki, through a vote of no confidence in the Parliament. However, Maliki, whohas a massive support base among his Shiites followers, has successfully refuted theopposition’s attempt to topple his government. Analysts believe the possibility of regimechange in Iraq in foreseeable future to be vague.MYANMAR PREZ THEIN SEIN DECLARED EMERGENCY IN WESTMYANMARMyanmar President Thein Sein declared emergency in West Myanmar on 10 June 2012.
