BAGHDAD — A prominent Sunni lawmaker, Saleh al-Mutlaq, announced Thursday that his party, National Dialogue Front, would participate in parliamentary elections, less than a week after pulling it from the race.
The decision effectively lifts the lingering threat that minority Sunnis would boycott the vote, which the U.S. hopes will bolster national reconciliation efforts and pave the way for American combat forces to go home.
