He thinks since they didnt do a budget for 2020, then it automatically reverts back to that time period. Why? I have no idea. But he has never been right. I looked at his past videos. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Adam Montana Posted December 9, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 9, 2020 KRG will abide by Baghdad's fiscal deficit law: finance minister yesterday at 03:01 IRAQ Minister of Finance Awat Sheikh Janab speaks during a press conference on December 8, 2020. Photo: screenshot A+A- ERBIL, Kurdistan Region — The Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) will abide by the fiscal deficit bill obliging Erbil to hand an unspecified amount oil in return for federal revenues, the KRG's Minister of Finance Awat Sheikh Janab has said. “The KRG will start implementing the duties they have as per the law, and will notify the responsible offices to do their part,” read a copy of the letter to Baghdad’s Ministry of Finance obtained by Rudaw English. “The KRG agrees to all the points made in the fiscal deficit bill, and from now it is up to the federal government and Kurdish representatives in Baghdad to do their job,” the minister said in a press conference on Tuesday. The letter comes amid widespread protests in Sulaimani province over unpaid civil servant salaries. At least four people have been reported dead since Monday. Iraqi MPs on November 12 passed the Fiscal Deficit Coverage Bill to approve loans for civil servant salaries in Iraq and the Kurdistan Region for the last two months of this year. The bill passed with a majority vote, despite a walkout staged by Kurdish MPs, angered that Erbil is obliged to hand over an unspecified amount of oil in exchange for funds- a clause they say was not in the original bill. The Kurdistan Region is heavily dependent on its share of the Iraqi budget, and the KRG has said it cannot pay civil servants without its fair share of federal government money. The KRG has struggled to pay civil servant salaries in full and on time for five years due to the war against the Islamic State (ISIS), a drop in oil prices and disputes with the federal government. 1 5 4 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Yesterday [Monday] our ministry received a letter from the Federal Ministry of Finance regarding the fiscal deficit bill and we replied that we are ready to abide by the bill," Sheikh Janab told reporters in Erbil, adding that "from now it is up to the federal government and Kurdish representatives in Baghdad to do their job." On 12 November, the Iraqi parliament approved the fiscal deficit coverage bill, which allows the government to borrow 12 trillion dinars [about $10 billion] to cover the fiscal deficit resulting from the drop in oil prices as well as delayed salaries of civil servants. The law stipulates that the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) must hand over "unspecified amounts of oil" to the federal government in return for revenues which had been rejected by the Kurdish MPs. For days, violent protests have erupted in the Kurdish cities and towns of Sulaymaniyah over the deteriorating economic situation and delayed salaries. 1 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6ly410 Posted December 9, 2020 Report Share Posted December 9, 2020 A conscious / deputy mortgages the distribution of employees' salaries for the coming months on the availability of one condition https://al-iraqinews.com/archives/85125 December 9, 2020 26 Views Conscious / Baghdad The deputy of the Saeron Alliance, Riyad Al-Masoudi, pledged, on Wednesday, the distribution of salaries for the month of January and February next to the fulfillment of one condition. "There is a direct connection between passing the 2021 budget and distributing salaries, as it cannot be spent without a budget, and Iraq needs 4-5 trillion dinars per month to secure salaries," Al-Masoudi said in a televised interview. He added that "approving the budget means approval of the House of Representatives with new borrowings, the amounts currently available as resources are not sufficient to pay salaries regularly, at least in the first six months of next year." Earlier, a member of the Parliamentary Finance Committee, Faisal Al-Issawi, confirmed that the salaries of employees during the next year are insured, while indicating that the Ministry of Finance can be exchanged for an automated teller machine, he said 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6ly410 Posted December 9, 2020 Report Share Posted December 9, 2020 The Democratic Party: We accept any agreement with Baghdad in accordance with the constitution, and we are keen on that Editing date: 9/12/2020 21:29 • 37 times read http://www.alliraqnews.com/modules/news/article.php?storyid=104956 [Baghdad-Where] A member of the Kurdistan Democratic Party, Sobhi Al-Mandoulay, affirmed the Kurdistan Regional Government's keenness to end all disputes with the center. Al-Mandalawi said, "The Kurdish delegation that will arrive in the capital, Baghdad, is among dozens of delegations that came in advance with the aim of reaching radical solutions to all outstanding problems, and the priority will be for the economic side and securing the salaries of employees." He pointed out, "The closer we approach the agreement, we see there is a deviation from some sides (he did not name it) that intend to obstruct any joint understanding with Baghdad, and we do not know the purpose of these measures," stressing, "the Kurdistan government's keenness to continue understandings that are in the interest of both parties." . "The stability of the region is an important factor for the stability of Baghdad, and vice versa," Al-Mandalawi added. He continued, "The delegation that attended on the 3 of this December was headed by Minister of Finance Awat Sheikh Janab, and met his counterpart in the federal government, Ali Abdul Amir Allawi, and the 2021 budget issue was confirmed and the approval of the regional government was notified on the provisions of the borrowing law voted by the House of Representatives." However, "we are trying not to create any justification for obstructing any agreement and approving everything that is proposed constitutional." Al-Mandalawi added, "There are debts on the region, and Baghdad bears many of the financial dues of Kurdistan by cutting the region's budgets for three years and the benefits of oil companies, and these matters have been discussed and solutions reached with Baghdad, and we are trying to reach an agreement regarding the salaries of employees." He also stressed "the Kurdistan government’s readiness to deliver oil to the SOMO company, and all of that the issue of the ports was resolved during the visit of Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kazemi to the region," indicating, "We were on the threshold of signing a comprehensive agreement with Baghdad, but the parliament’s decision on borrowing was shocking for the region." Regarding the ability of the Kurdistan Regional Government to secure the salaries of employees, Al-Mandalawi said, "We are not a state until we export oil and go to international borrowing to secure salaries," blaming Baghdad and the politics of "refusing to pay the region's dues." He continued, "The region needs 900 billion dinars to secure salaries at a time when we agreed with Baghdad to receive 320 billion dinars," and Al- Mandalawi concluded , "There is an economic crisis in all countries of the world and stifling in Baghdad, which is also unable to secure the salaries of employees. Therefore, the crisis is common and we seek to secure it." ". It is hoped that a high-ranking delegation representing the Kurdistan Regional Government will arrive in the capital, Baghdad, headed by Vice President of the Regional Government, Qubad Talabani, to negotiate with the federal government about the outstanding financial differences between the two sides 2 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
