The Nouri al-Maliki Government refers to the administration led by Nouri al-Maliki, who served as the Prime Minister of Iraq from 2006 to 2014. His tenure was marked by efforts to stabilize the country following the Iraq War and to promote national reconciliation among various ethnic and sectarian groups. However, his government faced criticism for alleged corruption and authoritarianism. During al-Maliki's time in office, Iraq experienced significant challenges, including rising violence and the emergence of extremist groups like ISIS. His approach to governance often favored Shia political factions, which led to tensions with Sunni communities and contributed to political instability in the region.
