MP: political leaders meet this week to implement Erbil agreement

Baghdad (NINA) – MP from the Iraqiya Slate, Othman Al Juhaishi, said the political leaders are meeting this week to implement the Erbil agreement.

He added in a statement to NINA today “head of the Tjdeed bloc, Tariq Al Hashimi, is going to represent the IS in this meeting, while Masoud Barzani will represent the Kurdish Alliance.”

Juhaishi did not mention the National Alliance’s representative.

MP from the KA, Ashwaq Al Jaaf, announced earlier that President Jalal Talabani will meet with the political leaders upon his return from New York in order to solve suspending problems and to reiterate Erbil agreement.

Disputes ongoing between the political blocs around the agreements and laws, including the oil and gas draft laws submitted to the parliament by the government and which aroused rejection of the KA because the draft law limits the authorities to the central government and prevented the provinces from striking deals with foreign companies. Other dispute takes place about the security ministries that are not settled yet and are still run without ministers. /End/
