Political analyst Sabah Al-Aqili warned, on Tuesday, of an economic catastrophe that might afflict Iraq in the event that the road to ships is cut off, the port of Al-Faw and other ports are closed, and marine oil exports are stopped due to Kuwait’s control of Khor Abdullah.
Al-Agaili told Al-Maalouma, “Kuwait knows that UN Security Council Resolution 1993 No. 833, which drew borders and granted Kuwait the right to control Khawr Abd Allah, Al-Amiya and nearby areas, while history confirms the ownership of this region to Iraq.”
He added, “Iraq can file a complaint with the United Nations to challenge this decision, as well as resorting to the International Court of Justice to review maps and documents that prove the ownership of the region to Iraq.”
And he indicated that “Kuwait’s control of Khawr Abd Allah means ending the presence of Iraqi ports, especially the great port of Faw, and thus killing the Iraqi economy, ports and oil exports through it, in addition to making the wrong way for commercial ships to receive commercial ships in the great port of Faw.”
He pointed out that “some political leaders complimented Kuwait in 2015 after they received gifts and bribes from the Kuwaiti side in order to overlook the Khawr Abdullah file.”
