Barzani added, during a press conference held today, that the financial resources of the Kurdistan Regional Government have already been affected by the Corona virus pandemic, internal revenues and oil prices. Barzani explained that the regional government has been working hard for many months to reach a fair constitutional settlement with the federal government. He continued, "The right to peaceful protest is vital, but violence in recent days is unacceptable. It is our common responsibility to maintain the safety and security of everyone, including the demonstrators and public and private property." Barzani stressed that the regional government is practically ready to work with the budget deficit law, despite reservations about its content and the way it is approved, expecting reciprocal steps with Baghdad to reach an agreement and implement it. The President of the Kurdistan Regional Government indicated that the federal government in Baghdad owes the KRG budget payments for the months of May, June, July, and October of 2020.
