Egypt launches new commercial channel linking Iraq, Saudi Arabia
Baghdad ( – Egypt has established a new commercial route linking it with Saudi Arabia and Iraq, demonstrating the scope of transformations in infrastructure and strategic planning for regional transport. The first trial shipment recently passed through Egypt's Safaga seaport on the Red Sea. This shipment is part of a proposal to establish a new regional commercial corridor that will connect Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and Iraq. The initiative is part of a contemporary intermodal transportation infrastructure that mixes marine and land transport, reshaping the trading landscape between the Middle East and North Africa. This new corridor represents not only a logistical milestone but also a significant advancement in the economic integration among the three countries. Rather than relying on lengthy, complicated, and geographically demanding traditional routes, the new corridor provides an integrated model that begins in Cairo, passes through the Safaga Port, crosses the Red Sea to the Saudi port of NEOM, and continues by land to Erbil, the capital of the Kurdistan region of Iraq. According to sources at Safaga Port, this pilot project has resulted in a more than 50 percent decrease in transit time compared to regular routes, providing a significant economic advantage in light of geopolitical challenges that some traditional corridors face.

Iraq and Kurdistan move closer to agreement on oil exports and salaries
Shafaq News – Baghdad Iraqi and Kurdish governments made significant progress in resolving long-standing disputes over oil exports and public sector salaries, the Iraqi Ministry of Planning revealed on Tuesday. According to a statement, Minister Mohammed Ali Tamim chaired a joint meeting in Baghdad with officials from the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) to review outstanding files between the two sides, including oil production and exports, non-oil revenues, and the unification of salary payments for employees under a ruling by the Federal Supreme Court. The statement said that significant steps had been completed on the oil file, with all requirements in place to begin production and exports through Iraq's State Oil Marketing Organization (SOMO). Talks are continuing on the remaining issues, particularly the mechanisms for managing revenues and finalizing the payroll system. For years, Erbil and Baghdad have been at odds over the Kurdish Region's independent oil sales and the payment of civil servant salaries, a dispute that has repeatedly strained relations and delayed federal budget transfers.

UN 'optimistic' on resolving Erbil–Baghdad disputes
Shafaq News – Baghdad The UN Special Representative for Iraq, Mohamed al-Hassan, voiced optimism on Tuesday about the prospect of an agreement between the Iraqi government and the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) to resolve their longstanding disputes. Speaking after a memorial service in Baghdad for victims of the 2003 UN headquarters bombing, al-Hassan underlined his strong ties with the Iraqi and Kurdish leaders and described their engagement as encouraging. 'I am optimistic that Erbil and Baghdad can reach a good formula to address their differences,' he told reporters. Al-Hassan noted that Kurdistan Region's leadership 'always stresses the importance of preserving Iraq and implementing the constitution in all its provisions,' adding that current conditions offer a real opportunity for progress. A government source told Shafaq News on Monday that a KRG delegation is scheduled to begin meetings with Iraqi counterparts today to address salary payment mechanisms—a sticking point that remains among the most contentious issues between the two sides. The upcoming meeting follows a recent agreement between the Kurdistan Region's Ministry of Natural Resources and Iraq's Oil Ministry on an oil export mechanism, an essential step for enabling salary disbursements.
