The Iraqi government continues its efforts to weaken the Kurdistan Region. We all know that the budget and salaries of the Kurdistan Region have become the focus of the conflict that the government in Baghdad monthly resorts to various excuses and obstacles after It creates new obstacles for not sending this constitutional right and creates new excuses that are intended to – programmatically – starve the population of the Kurdistan Region.
Now the government has not only delayed the salaries in many different ways, but is also trying to eat the salaries of the next eight months of the region in full, at the expense of the region’s entire share The federal government (which we – only -call the federal government) has nothing left that has no legal and logical basis.
Now the government is not only opposed to the Kurdistan Region and its constitutional rights, but also resorted to a new method, which is to impose sanctions on the Kurdistan Region’s products and prevent them from going to the center and to the south of Iraq, as is known, the region and the public sector are very successfully pursuing a policy of developing domestic production, which today does not share the domestic production of the region itself, but to some extent It also exports its products to various countries.
What is now being noticed is that instead of supporting the Kurdistan Region, the Iraqi government is exporting its products to the various cities in central and southern Iraq, which are easier and cheaper than neighboring countries The regions and the Iraqi government itself will benefit from it, but it is putting obstacles in every way against this process and preventing these products from going to other Iraqi cities that are also examples of these products It buys much more money from neighboring countries, which puts the burden of this unjust action on the poor Iraqi people, which harms the people and the Iraqi government itself.
