Wafa Mohammed Karim, a member of the Kurdistan Democratic Party, clarified today, Thursday, the nature of the understandings being reached by the Kurdistan delegation in Baghdad. He pointed out that the delegation is discussing the budget, the region’s share of it, oil revenues, and services in Kurdistan.
Karim told Al-Maalouma, “The visits of the Kurdistan delegations to Baghdad aim to reach an agreement on the budget and increase the region’s share to 14.14%, according to the population percentage determined in the general census.”
He added, “The understandings also revolve around the percentage of oil revenues delivered to Baghdad, as oil companies will not be able to secure 450,000 barrels of oil to deliver their revenues to the government. Furthermore, the region used to receive 16 trillion dinars, and now it receives 13 trillion. Understandings are being reached on such matters.”
He explained that “there are other issues being discussed related to services in the region and their associated expenditures. The budget will not be voted on if the share and percentage remain unchanged.”
