Baghdad-INA
The Kurdistan Democratic Party announced today, Sunday, an agreement to legislate the oil and gas law, while noting that the law will solve one of the most prominent outstanding problems between Baghdad and Erbil.
"Both Kurdish parties have their interests, and the dispute between them is a very natural issue, provided that the differences do not affect the interests of the Kurdistan region," said Majid Shankali, a representative of the party, in a statement.
He added, "The best way is the dialogue, to reach a formula of understanding between the two parties, and go to Baghdad unified to resolve contentious points, especially the region's share of the budget," noting that "everyone agrees on the oil and gas law, and it will be legislated during the coming period."
