 Turkmen leader: The region’s talk about the oil and gas law is a “lie”, 31 DEC

Information / Baghdad…
Former MP Jassim Al-Bayati confirmed on Sunday that the region had previously rejected the oil and gas law, and will reject the law in its current form because it determines exports and imports and therefore will not meet its interests and desires.

Al-Bayati told Al-Maalouma, “The region is lying to itself when it talks about the oil and gas law and declares support for this law, because it will never be in its interest and will not meet its desires, as it will make all oil companies partners among themselves.”

He added, “The Kurds know that the oil and gas law will determine the amount of exports and imports, as the region will find that this law restricts it, and therefore the region’s talk about supporting the aforementioned law is nothing but a lie.”

He stated that “the region had previously rejected the oil and gas law since 2008, despite the Council of Ministers approving it at the time and sending the law to Parliament, but the Kurds rejected it, stood against it, and went out with demonstrations to reject the law.”
