Interim President Ghazi al-Yawar said Tuesday a Shia Muslim would almost certainly head Iraq's next government but rejected any permanent division of top posts between rival ethnic groups. Yawar added to growing signals from leading politicians that at least a tacit agreement has been reached on how the top posts will be shared out after Sunday's landmark elections. The current interim administration has a Shia Muslim prime minister, Iyad Allawi, a Sunni Muslim president, Yawar, and Shia and Kurdish vice presidents, Ibrahim Jaafari and Rowsch Shaways, respectively.Yawar said he believed the ethnic shareout would "remain the same" for the post-election government that must oversee the drawing up of a new constitution, with the Kurds also being given the post of national assembly speaker. "This is my hunch for the time being during the transitional parliament," Yawar told a press conference, while insisting it should not become a permanent arrangement. "I hope this will not be the case in the permanent constitution because this would be really shameful in a country like Iraq to have division like this."
