Iraq Denies Any Connection To Oil Tankers Seized With Forged Documents.
Iraqi Oil Minister Hayan Abdul Ghani revealed that Baghdad received verbal messages from Washington regarding the US Navy's seizure of tankers carrying Iranian oil in the Gulf using Iraqi documents, stressing that Iraq informed the United States that these documents were forged.
Abdul Ghani explained, in a television interview, that some Iranian traders use fake documents, but that Iraq has nothing to do with these operations. He confirmed that the State Oil Marketing Organization (SOMO) monitors all its shipments via satellite, emphasizing that export operations through the company are transparent, as sales are only made to companies that own refineries, which distinguishes Iraq from others.
The minister indicated that some traders attempted to change the destination of shipments to take advantage of price differences between Asian and European markets, but SOMO took strict measures against them, including blacklisting some of them. He stressed that the company did not commit any violations in the export operations. https://www.radionawa.com/all-detail.aspx?jimare=41459
