Iraqi Kurd MP hails Iran's role in solving Baghdad-Erbil disputes

Baghdad, Jan 22, IRNA – Islamic Republic of Iran plays a key role in the settlement of the existing disputes between Baghdad and Erbil, an Iraqi Kurd lawmaker said on Monday. Majid al-Shenkali, Member of the Kurdish Alliance, made the remarks addressing the local media. Although bilateral meetings are taking place between Erbil and Baghdad to resolve the problems, the complicated nature of the issues requires further international efforts to be made. Having cordial relations with both Baghdad and Erbil, Iran can play a significant role in settling the differences, the official said. Prime Minister of the Iraqi Kurdistan region Nechirvan Barzani arrived in Tehran on Saturday night for talks with high-ranking Iranian officials after a visit to Baghdad where he had met Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi. 1378/IRNA
