The third episode of the documentary series *The Road to Taif* reveals the divisions and tensions behind the drafting of the 1989 Taif Agreement, particularly over the powers of the president and the role of the army, amid protests and political pressure. The compromises included extending the term of the speaker of parliament from one year to two, after which ten MPs could request a vote of no confidence in him. They also included establishing a Senate in response to demands for sectarian representation. Discussions on abolishing political sectarianism ultimately resulted in a gradual process through a national commission, in accordance with Article 95 of the Constitution, rather than immediate abolition.
