The Kurds pin their hopes on the government delegation’s visit to Baghdad: salaries before oil

Political| 05:53 – 05/30/2021

Special – Mawazine News
The government delegation representing the Kurdistan region arrives today, in the federal capital, Baghdad, to discuss several files, including the salaries of employees and the region’s share of the current year’s budget.
The Kurds attach their hopes to the visit, which is the first after the budget is approved, and the delegation has files and data on the region’s oil exports, the number of employees, their salaries, and the dues for operating the oil fields.
A member of the Democratic Party, Shakhwan Abdullah, says, “The problems between Baghdad and Erbil are technical, not administrative, and that the Kurds are afraid to deliver oil without obtaining financial dues, as happened during Haider al-Abadi’s premiership in 2015, when the region handed over oil and did not receive salaries.”
Abdullah suggests that the federal government dispose of the region’s dues for a month, and in the event that the region’s oil is not delivered, it will be cut off in the following month.
The federal government has set several conditions in exchange for implementing the budget clause for the Kurdistan region, and one of these conditions, according to sources who spoke to us, is that “oil is delivered and half of the revenues of the border outlets and after that the salaries are disbursed, but the region wants salaries before delivering its oil.”
There is also a problem related to calculating the cost of producing the region’s oil. The latter wants it to be at the expense of the federal government, while Baghdad refuses that, but the technical dispute that the Democratic Party member spoke about relates to the fields ’inability to produce 250 thousand barrels per day, in addition to local production This dispute, the Kurdish delegation seeks to resolve during the visit.
Member of the Kurdistan Alliance, MP Ahmad Al-Saffar, spoke about the arrival of the delegation today to Baghdad, while noting that the aim of the visit is to follow up the implementation of Article 11 of the Budget Law for the Kurdistan Region’s share, and there will be three parties present: the Federal Ministries of Finance and Oil, and the Office of Financial Supervision.

The region’s delegation in Baghdad to implement the budget agreement and communicate the formula for delivering oil to the federal government

• The number of readings 116
• Section : Iraq

Baghdad / Obelisk: Member of the Parliament of the Kurdistan Region, Othman Karim, on Sunday May 30, 2021, revealed the most important files that the Kurdish delegation will discuss during its visit to Baghdad.

In an interview received by Al-Masalla, Karim said that the files that the delegation, which includes a group of ministers, will discuss is the implementation of the budget agreement, reaching a formula regarding the delivery of the region’s oil to Baghdad, and also sending the federal government the sums allocated to Kurdistan.

He added that the other files will focus on managing border crossings, financial revenues, customs tariffs, and sending the salaries of employees in the region who have a direct link with the federal government.

He pointed out that the issue of Peshmerga and its redeployment in the disputed areas is not the prerogative of the current delegation. Rather, there are military delegations that will visit Baghdad soon to discuss this file and complete coordination with the Iraqi army.

The agreement signed last December stipulates that Kurdistan will be granted a budget share of 12.6% in return for handing over 250 thousand barrels of oil per day to the region, and half of the revenues from the border crossings to Baghdad.

And the political blocs in the Iraqi parliament rejected the agreement that was included in the draft budget, at a time when the government of the blocks objecting to the draft law complains that the government of Erbil should hand over the entire oil management file to the federal government in return for Kurdistan to get its share in the budget.

The issue of the region’s share is not the only point of contention between Baghdad and Erbil. There are other points. Article 140 is still pending, and it is a constitutional issue that has not yet been implemented. With one package to solve all outstanding problems.

SULAIMANI — General Director at the Kurdistan Regional Government’s (KRG) Ministry of Trade Nawzad Kamil said on Saturday (May 29) that the federal government has transferred more than 46 billion Iraqi dinars ($31 million) to the Kurdistan Region in payment for wheat sales in 2020.

Kamil told NRT that the ministry will distribute the cash to farmers as soon as possible, likely either this week or next week.

He said that 23.7 billion Iraqi dinars ($16.3 million) of the payment is for farmers in Sulaimani, 11.9 billion ($8.2 million) in Erbil, and 10.7 billion ($7.3 million) in Duhok. 

Kamil added that Baghdad still owes a total of 307 billion dinars ($210 million) in payments for wheat sales in 2014, 2015, and 2016.

The payments were delayed because of financial and budget disagreements between Baghdad and Erbil, with famers who sold their wheat to the federal government caught in the middle.
