krull Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 PoliticsSLC likely to respond to Kurdish demands today Tuesday, October 12th 2010 1:33 PM Baghdad, Oct. 12 (AKnews) - A member of the State of Law Coalition (SLC), led by the outgoing Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki believes his bloc will disclose its final position concerning the Kurdish coalition terms today (Tuesday). The Kurdish factions unified under the umbrella bloc, the Kurdistan Blocs Coalition (KBC) handed in July a 19-paragraph paper outlining their terms of support for a new Iraqi government. The terms mainly concern settling the disputes between Baghdad and the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) over the ownership of some areas, the legality of oil and gas contracts signed in the Region, its budget and the status of the peshmarga (Kurdish security forces) as well as the allocation of some ministries and the presidency to Kurds. SLC member, Adnan Siraj told AKnews that the committee formed last week to negotiate with the KBC's delegation has reached agreement with the Kurdish side on 17 points and the two remaining points will be settled today. The SLC came second in the March elections with 89 seats after Ayad Allawi's al-Iraqiya bloc, which won 91. Reported by Yazin Shamari 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
