2023-01-30T15:52:39.000000 Z / On Monday, the Iraqi President, Abdul Latif Rashid, got the KRG Vice President, Qubad Talabani, and his
accompanying delegation.The Iraqi Presidency specified that both sides discussed the advancements in Iraq and Kurdistan and verified the
significance of supporting the brand-new federal Government to implement its program.They highlighted the coordination between Baghdad and
Erbil to develop security and stability and face daily challenges.Concerning the impressive problems, the Iraqi President stressed the
requirement to perform a major discussion based on the constitution and the law.In turn, Talabani applauded the Iraqi Presidents function in
bringing different perspectives and finding services to exceptional issues.Negotiations are underway in between the Kurdish and the federal
governments to deal with the differences, including oil, the fiscal budget, and the Peshmerga deployment in the contested locations
During the Government of former Prime Minister Adel Abdul Mahdi (2018-2020), both sides concluded an agreement that needs Baghdad to pay all
the incomes of the Kurdistan Region for the first time since 2014
In return, Erbil would provide the earnings of 250,000 barrels of oil out of nearly 500,000 barrels that Kurdistan exports
independently.Baghdad said Erbil did not comply with this contract practically completely, while the Kurdish Government confirmed that it
fulfilled its promises.In May 2020, former PM Mustafa Al-Kadhimi decided to stop paying the wages of the Regions workers, totaling up to
almost 500 million dollars monthly, due to the financial crisis
Subsequently, the Regions senior authorities, including President Nechirvan Barzani and Deputy Prime Minister Qubad Talabani, visited
Baghdad regularly to discover options, however to no avail.Another part of the difference is the challenged areas.The Iraqi army forces
regained in October 2017 control of the Kirkuk Governorate and the challenged areas, extending throughout a strip starting east from Diyala,
passing through Saladin, and reaching southwest of Nineveh.The Iraqi Kurdistan utilized to keep control over all those locations after the
collapse of the Iraqi army in 2014 following the attack by ISIS.Since 2017, security in Kirkuk and the disputed areas has been preserved
through several federal forces, including the army, the federal authorities, the counter-terrorism service, and the Popular Mobilization
A revealed agreement between Baghdad and Erbil stipulated that four joint security centers be formed in the contested areas in Kirkuk,
Diyala, Makhmur, and Mosul, to cover the vacuum areas between the army and the Peshmerga to prevent ISIS activities
The contract is now suspended, and both sides accuse each other of a lack of responsiveness
Now, with a brand-new round of talks, many future scenarios are presented for the relationship
Hope was raised by forming a brand-new federal government head by Muhammad Shiaa Al-Sudani
Recently, the talks faced a new bloc.After the Federal Government approved sending 400 billion dinars to pay the staff members incomes for
November and December 2022, Iraqs highest judicial body ruled that regular monthly remittances to the Kurdistan Regional Government were
prohibited and unconstitutional
The President of Kurdistan Region, Nechirvan Barzani, thought about the Federal Supreme Courts choice suspicious and unreasonable
the Courts choice is unjust ..
it targets the political process and the political arrangement on which the brand-new Iraqi government was formed
This does not just target staff members in Kurdistan who are Iraqi citizens however rather the whole process and political stability,
Barzani said.He continued, The choice of the Iraqi Federal Supreme Court at this time is absolutely nothing but suspicious and questionable
KRG explained the decision as a hostile action against the rights of the people of the Kurdistan Region and their constitutional financial
entitlements.The declaration continued, The Kurdistan Region is a federal constitutional area, and these choices are a flagrant infraction
of the Iraqi constitution and the contract of the State Administration Coalition that formed the new government and contradicted the
ministerial program authorized by Parliament
