The legal expert in charge of the lawsuit against the governments of Baghdad and Erbil regarding sending money, Muhammad Al-Saadi, confirmed, on Monday, the anticipation of the issuance of a state order by the Federal Supreme Court to stop sending money from Baghdad to Erbil.
Al-Saadi said in a statement to Al-Maalouma, “This morning witnessed the filing of a lawsuit against the governments of Baghdad and Erbil regarding the unconstitutionality of sending budget funds to Kurdistan.”
He added, “The Federal Court has taken up the case, and the state decision will be issued within 24 hours from the date of filing the case, according to the law.”
He pointed out that “the filing of the lawsuit came to block the way for Baghdad to send money to Erbil, provided that the lawsuit is considered in a fundamental manner after Baghdad’s response and defense before the Federal Supreme Court,” noting that “all government steps regarding sending money are in clear violation of the constitution, which confirms the inevitability of making a decision in favor of Baghdad.” “.
The Council of Ministers had voted to lend the Iraqi Kurdistan Regional Government an amount of two trillion and one hundred billion dinars for the current fiscal year, to be paid in three equal installments of (700) billion dinars for each installment, starting in September.
