 Carrying the Kurds' "dreams"... Barzani in Baghdad

 The office of the President of the Kurdistan Democratic Party, Masoud Barzani, announced that the party leader will visit Baghdad today, Wednesday (July 3, 2024), to hold a series of meetings with Iraqi officials and political leaders.

Barzani's office said in a statement received by Baghdad Today, "The party's leader will visit Baghdad today to hold a series of meetings with political parties and political leaders."

He added, "The budget, the formation of the local government in Kirkuk, the Sinjar issue, and the election of the Speaker of the Iraqi Parliament will be among the main topics in his meetings."

According to local reports and Kurdish sources, the visit was described as not to discuss pending files, but rather as a final culmination of the end of all technical and legal discussions on all current files, at least those related to salaries and political crises, while the major files related to the oil and gas law and the file of resuming the export of the region’s oil, which has become a vicious circle between Baghdad and foreign companies operating in the region, continue.

Barzani's visit also coincides with the Turkish incursion and ground operations it is carrying out in northern Dohuk within the Kurdistan Region, while these operations came in accordance with a prior agreement between Baghdad and Ankara during the visit of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan to Baghdad  link
