Kurdish leader Jalal Talabani has been sworn in as the new interim president of Iraq. It happened a day after he was elected to the largely ceremonial post by parliament, ending weeks of deadlock. The ceremony took place before the parliament in the heavily- fortified Green Zone in central Baghdad. He named Iraqi Shia leader Ibrahim Jaafari, 58, for the position of prime minister. Outgoing Prime Minister Iyad Allawi has resigned, but will continue his work until Jaafari names his government. The transitional government's main task will be to oversee the drafting of a permanent Iraqi constitution and to pave the way for elections in December.
