On Sunday, the representative of the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan, Nermin Maarouf, revealed the existence of a new round of negotiations between Baghdad and Erbil to resolve the outstanding differences between the two parties and reach long-term strategic agreements.
Marouf said in an interview with the Maalouma Agency, “Ending the disputes between Baghdad and the center regarding employee salaries, as well as focusing on legislating the oil and gas law.”
She added that “the lack of consensus between the political blocs is the main reason for delaying the approval of the oil and gas law,” stressing “the necessity for the two parties to reach long-term strategic agreements through which the oil and gas law will be approved.”
She continued, “The oil and gas issue and other issues are still thorny between the two parties, and we hope to reach final agreements regarding them.”
The representative of the Kurdistan Democratic Party, Sharif Suleiman, confirmed to “Al-Ma’louma” that “the oil and gas law is still with the formed government committee for consideration,” pointing out that the Kurdistan Region submitted a law proposal to the formed committee.
