KRG announces $420mn in infrastructure spending

ERBIL, Kurdistan Region — The Kurdistan Regional Government is planning a massive, region-wide infrastructure investment to improve basic transportation and services, Prime Minister Masrour Barzani announced on twitter Thursday.

The government will spend 500 billion dinars ($420m), “creating the foundations for a stronger, more prosperous Kurdistan,” he tweeted. The funds are to be primarily directed towards “roads, silos, electricity lines and water pipelines across the nation,” he added.

Developing infrastructure is a focus for the Region’s provincial governors. Speaking to Rudaw in January, Duhok Governor Farhad Atroushi said he planned to improve roads between his province and the rest of the Kurdistan Region, an issue that was echoed by Halabja Governor Azad Tofiq, who described the local roads as being in a “miserable state.”

Poor infrastructure has compounded natural disasters in the region, with northern villages completely isolated in a spate of floods last autumn.

Hundreds of infrastructure projects were put on hold for years because of the financial crisis caused by the war against Islamic State (ISIS), a refugee crisis, falling oil prices, and a budget dispute with Baghdad. More than 2,000 initiatives were halted due to the budget and financial constraints, according to Erbil governor Nawzad Hadi.

The loss of Kirkuk to Iraqi forces in 2017 dealt a further blow to the region, leading to a 40% loss in oil revenue overnight, stalling the salaries of public service workers across the KRI.

Improved relations between Erbil and Baghdad have contributed to getting construction crews back to work over the past year, with Erbil’s 120 meter ring road to open to traffic in December alongside the start of construction on the 150 meter road, a project costing $131 million.

Erbil, Kurdistan Region, Iraq (GOV.KRD)

 

– Prime Minister Masrour Barzani on Wednesday chaired a meeting of the Kurdistan Regional Government to discuss the evolving situation in Iraq and Syria.

Underscoring the need for stability in Iraq, Prime Minister Barzani outlined how a strong partnership between the federal government of Iraq and the Kurdistan Regional Government would strengthen the country’s ability to protect its people and withstand shocks in the region.

Weighing in on recent turmoil in Iraq as demonstrations swept across the country, Prime Minister Barzani recognised the legitimate demands of protesters but denounced the use of violence and urged for peace to prevail.

Prime Minister Barzani reminded his cabinet of the need to support the reforms and constructive steps taken by the federal government of Iraq, both in response to the protesters’ demands and to continue towards building a better country.

Mindful of the current demands on the federal government of Iraq, Prime Minister Barzani noted that the Kurdistan Regional Government would rely heavily on the international community for additional humanitarian assistance in the wake of the crisis in north eastern Syria.

Prime Minister Barzani reaffirmed the Kurdistan Regional Government’s continued commitment to providing basic services and aid to the 1.1 million displaced people who are seeking refuge in the Kurdistan Region.

With over 8,000 new refugees arriving in the Kurdistan Region in recent weeks, Prime Minister Barzani expressed deep concern about the escalation of violence in north and north eastern Syria, noting the destabilising impact it has had and continues to have on the region.

Prime Minister Barzani also reminded his cabinet that the Kurdistan Regional Government will soon have completed 100 days in office. To mark this milestone, he announced that there will be an update on key achievements and decisions taken to date.

SULAIMANI – The Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) Council of Ministers said on Wednesday (October 30) that it would not permit any amendments to the Iraqi Constitution that would reduce the the rights of the Kurdistan Region as a federal entity or its residents.

Federal officials are under pressure from protesters and political leaders to make deep reforms to governance in Iraq. Some, including populist Shia cleric Moqtada al-Sadr, have called for the 2005 Constitution to be amended.

KRG Prime Minister Masrour Barzani said that political upheaval was not in the interest of the people of the Kurdistan Region and Iraq.

“We are with the legitimate and peaceful demands of the demonstrators, but we are against using violence by any side,” Barzani said. “We are supportive of Prime Minister Adil Abdul Mahdi implementing reforms and improving services.”

“[But] we will not accept any reforms outside constitutional and legal procedures. We are against any attempts to reduce and manipulate the power and constructional rights of the Kurdistan Region in Iraq,” he added.

Addressing other issues, Barzani said that Islamic State (ISIS) militants continued to pose a serious threat to “the citizens of most areas in Iraq,” despite the death of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi in a US raid in Syria.

“Daesh [ISIS] was defeated at the hands of Peshmerga, which became an initiative [to cause] the collapse of Daesh in Syria by the Kurds,” he continued.

Interior Minister Rebwar Ahmad reported to the Council of Ministers on the KRG's emergency humanitarian plan to welcome the new wave of Syrian refugees to the Kurdistan Region. 

The Council approved Ahmad’s proposal to develop a permanent humanitarian emergency fund in the Region.

DV,  The KRG citizens need to rise the heck up against the Barzani's & Talabani's Family.   Their fellow Iraqi citizens are carrying the heavy load while the Barzani's have brainwashed their citizens with B.S.  The Barzani's support PM Madhi because he has tolerated their B.S.  The entire Iraqi & KRG Government needs to be replaced ASAP and put in jail for corruption and stealing the citizens wealth.  All Iraqis need to continue to fight for their rights no matter what the ultimate costs will be until those corrupt politicians are brought to JUSTICE priority one Maliki & M Barzani.

 

GO ALL IRAQIS....👍👍

 

JUSTICE!!

Iraqi Constitution Requires Implementation, Not Amendment: Kurdistan President
 

ERBIL - Kurdistan Region President Nechirvan Barzani argued on Thursday that there is no need to amend the Iraqi Constitution if its articles are implemented.

Barzani made the remarks during a speech at the sixth congress of the Kurdistan Bar Association in Erbil on Thursday, in which, he also reiterated his support to the rule of law and independence of the judiciary.

Barzani noted that the current Iraqi Constitution is "considered a modern constitution in comparison to [the Constitution of] most of the countries."

"But the lack of implementation of its articles has become the talk of an amendment to it," Barzani added.

He further made it clear that in case of any amendments to the Constitution, the rights of all components must be guaranteed.

"We do not object to any amendments [to the Constitution] if it is to improve the situation, but we oppose any amendments that will harm the constitutional rights of the people of the Kurdistan Region."

Concerning the recent nationwide protests against the Iraqi government, the Kurdish president pointed out that the years-long challenges, as a legacy from the previous cabinets, cannot be resolved in just one year.

He reaffirmed his support to Iraqi PM Adil Abdul Mahdi's efforts for reforms.
