UNAMI chief hopes Erbil-Baghdad financial deal holds
Also in Iraq MPs slam Baghdad for banning Kurdish in disputed areas Ali al-Gharbi: One of world's hottest places Iraq dismantles extremist group financing network Iraqi man remarries at age 92 A+ A- ERBIL, Kurdistan Region - Mohamed al-Hassan, head of the UN Assistance Mission for Iraq (UNAMI), said on Saturday he hopes the new agreement between Erbil and Baghdad will be a final settlement of long-running disputes over finances and oil. "God willing, it will be an agreement that ends all disputes and we won't return to this topic because it affects the rights of ordinary people in Iraq. I have a firm conviction that with the wisdom of Iraq's leaders, whether in Baghdad or Erbil or elsewhere, we hope for all the best," Hassan told Rudaw's Ziyad Ismail. Earlier this month, the federal and regional governments reached a new deal over finances and oil. Several similar deals have failed in the past. The Iraqi government approved the agreement during a cabinet meeting and subsequently resumed the disbursement of the salaries of the Kurdistan Regional Government's (KRG) civil servants. Tensions between Baghdad and Erbil escalated in late May when the federal finance ministry suspended transfers of funds, saying the KRG had exceeded its 12.67 percent share of the federal budget and failed to deliver oil to Iraq's State Oil Marketing Organization (SOMO). The freeze affected more than 1.2 million public sector employees in the Kurdistan Region. Iraq will hold parliamentary elections in November. The UNAMI chief said they have "a fundamental and active role in these elections. We call on Iraqis to be honest and trustworthy in their electoral decision." UNAMI's mission in Iraq will expire at the end of the year.

Turkiye seeks higher transit fees in new Iraq oil deal talks
Shafaq News – Baghdad/Ankara Iraq and Turkiye have begun preliminary discussions on a potential new agreement to resume crude oil exports through the Turkish port of Ceyhan, according to the Iraqi economic observatory Eco Iraq. The talks come amid Turkish demands to raise oil transit fees to $2.5 per barrel, significantly above the previous rate of $1 to $1.5. Ali Naji, a member of the observatory, told Shafaq News that before exports were halted in 2023, Iraq had been pumping around 500,000 barrels per day (bpd) through the Kirkuk–Ceyhan pipeline, sourced from fields in both Kirkuk and the Kurdistan Region. Exports were suspended after Iraq won an international arbitration case against Turkiye for violating the 1973 pipeline agreement. Naji said the current negotiations are still in early stages and have not yet reached formal talks or the drafting of a new agreement. He noted that the pipeline has a maximum export capacity of one million bpd, should it be restored to full operational levels. The pipeline, one of Iraq's oldest export routes to global markets, has faced repeated security and technical setbacks over the decades, including multiple sabotage attacks between 2004 and 2015 that caused extensive losses and disruptions. On July 21, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan formally signed the termination of the historic oil accord with Iraq, which had been in effect since 1973.
