waterman13 Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 (edited) What is article 140? Does that have to do with the HCL at all? And I agree with everyone else....we need more action and less talk. That's nice Maliki agrees, but we need to hear more about he is going to DO! Sara, I see nobody answered your question, I will. Basically, if you hear article 140, HCL (hydrocarbon law) or the Erbil (or Arbil) agreement they are talking about the think. It's about how to divide up the profits of the oil from the northern region (Kurdistan). It's got to do with several other things like regional borders, census numbers, oil contracts, etc. Hope that helps. Sounds like good progress on agreement on the issues, get it implemented Iraq!
