Shafaq News / Kurdish leader Massoud Barzani stressed on Monday that the best way to end the differences is to resort to dialogue and understanding between the Iraqi federal government and the Kurdistan Regional Government.
This came during the reception of Massoud Barzani, at the resort of Salah al-Din, a high-level delegation from the federal government, including Fouad Hussein, Deputy Prime Minister of the Iraqi Minister and Chairman of the Ministerial Council for Economy, Mohammed Tamim, Iraqi Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Planning, Taif Sami, Iraqi Minister of Finance, Hamid Naim Al-Ghazi, Secretary-General of the Iraqi Council of Ministers, and Ali Mohsen Al-Alak, Governor of the Central Bank of Iraq, in addition to a number of officials in the Iraqi government from the Ministries of Foreign Affairs, Planning, Oil, Industry, Industry, Metals, Labor and Social Affairs, as well as the General Secretariat of the Council of Ministers, the Central Bank and the Iraqi Securities Commission, according to a statement received by Shafaq News.
The statement pointed out that “during the meeting, the members of the guest delegation expressed their happiness to visit the Kurdistan Region, praising the historical role of President Barzani in building the new Iraq and the struggle against the dictatorship. They also reviewed President Barzani the objectives of their visit to the Kurdistan Region and their talks with the relevant authorities in the regional government.
The guest delegation stressed, according to the statement, that their meetings and meetings with the regional government were fruitful, stressing the need to seek to reach a full understanding in an atmosphere of trust and through a transparent and constructive vision in order to solve outstanding problems and overcome obstacles.
For his part, Massoud Barzani expressed his warm welcome to the high-level delegation to the Iraqi Federal Government, and expressed his hope that this visit and meetings will have positive results for the benefit of all Iraq and the Kurdistan Region.
Barzani also highlighted the history of the struggle and sacrifices of the people of Kurdistan in the twentieth century, and reminded the audience that after 2003 there were aspirations to build a new Iraq that would be an example of coexistence, partnership, democracy and pluralism in the region.
He stressed that the struggle of the Kurdish people was to consolidate partnership and guarantee their rights, and it is not possible to try to limit the historical cause and the countless struggles and sacrifices of Kurdistan and to shorten them on the issue of salaries or seeking to spread division and division in the Kurdistan Region, instead of respecting the demands of the Kurdistan people and compensating for the bombings and chemical weapons bombings.
The Kurdish leader stressed that “the best way to end the differences is to resort to dialogue and understanding between the Iraqi federal government and the Kurdistan Regional Government,” stressing that “we should all of us refer to the constitution in order to settle the problems while adhering to the political agreements reached between the constituent parties of the State Administration Coalition.”
Barzani praised the role and efforts of Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani in removing obstacles and addressing differences, and stressed the importance of having good intentions and a real and sincere will, in addition to commitment to the constitution and political agreements in order to make the dialogue process successful and settle problems.
It is noteworthy that the meeting was held in the presence of a high-level delegation from the Kurdistan Regional Government, including the Ministers of Interior and Finance, the Chief of the Cabinet and a number of officials of the Kurdistan Regional Government.

[via PDK] The biggest piece I had over the weekend was more confirmations of continuing education of the lower denominations in Iraq.
I had a couple more confirmations that Sudani announced on television that they are planning to raise the value of the dinar during his current administration. I thought that was a great one.
PM Sudani – in the news this week was asked if they are planning on revaluing the Iraq currency…and he answered yes they were…during his administration.
Not sure how much longer he has got…but this is a huge one. He is telling us the goal during his administration is adding value and removing the zeros from the Iraqi dinar.
Question: What is your gut feeling for RV Mark? MarkZ: …nobody knows the timing…but my gut feeling is between the 11th and 15th…just a guess…
