Kurdistan considers exporting gas and ignores the solutions of the Ministry of Oil

Saturday 07 May 2022 151

 

 Sulaymaniyah: Muhammad al-Baghdadi

The Kurdistan Regional Government is still dependent on Baghdad’s grant of 200 billion dinars per month, to pay what it can pay from the salaries of employees. , which has been the subject of contention between the center and the region for more than a decade and a half.

 

According to the results of the Prime Minister's tour in Turkey and Britain, there are no positive results on the horizon in resolving the oil crisis, to which is added the region's desire to establish the Erbil Oil Company, in addition to Kurdistan's aspirations to export gas to Europe to benefit from the crisis left by the Russian war in Ukraine.

Many observers in Kurdistan fear that Baghdad will resort to cutting the 200 billion dinars, so that the region's employees will enter the circle of danger of losing the rest of their salaries that they receive every 40 days.

A member of the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan, Sherzad Samad, told Al-Sabah: "We are with any step that is in the interest of the citizens of the Kurdistan region in the current situation," noting that "there is a deterioration in the social conditions of employees, the lack of salaries and the disruption of service projects, in conjunction with mismanagement and corruption." The rampant and dominance of Erbil over political decisions and the monopoly of power.

Samad explained that "citizens are waiting for any decision to improve the living conditions of the people of Kurdistan, away from national slogans."

Economic expert Salama Sumaisem believes that "the reality of the dispute between Baghdad and Erbil is related to the budget, oil and revenues, which are economic issues, but in fact they are in the political file."

Sumaisem added in an interview with "Al-Sabah", that "all positions are currently postponed unless a new government is formed," noting that "the issue is subject to tension and attraction due to the lack of clarity on the next person to take over the presidency of the Council of Ministers."

The economic expert expressed her pessimism that a solution will be reached in the near future, stressing the need to resort to the constitution in relation to the oil file, with the need to draft clear constitutional texts that establish the relationship between the two parties, in addition to observing humanitarian controls in providing for the needs of citizens there as part of the Iraqi people.

Legal expert Haider Sufi believes that the best solutions for citizens in the region are to pay revenues to the federal government, offset by paying the salaries of Kurdistan region’s employees, as well as the region’s dues, in addition to 17% of the budget.

Sofi added, in an interview with Al-Sabah, that “it is necessary to establish a national oil company, as in the South and Central Oil Company, called the National Oil Company in Kurdistan. in the state treasury.

Report: The standard of living for the citizens of Kurdistan has decreased due to the delay in employee salaries

2022.05.18 - 08:58

 

Baghdad - people  

“During the days when oil prices rise, we are in an economically prosperous state, and when it decreases, as happened in 2014 and 2020, we turn into poor people,” this is how merchant Abdul Qader Zebari, who lives in the Aqrah district of Dohuk governorate in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, describes the living situation of the citizens of the region.  

 

  

Zebari says that the high rates of inflation and the government's failure to pay the salaries of public sector employees contributed to the deterioration of the living situation of the Kurds after all their cash savings had run out, forcing them to use the bale markets to buy electrical materials, clothes and other used living necessities.  

  

Causes of inflation  

According to the economic perspective, inflation is caused by an abundance of demand and a lack of supply, and accordingly it rises or falls in the region by several factors determined by the economic academic Dr. Farhad Kakai.  

  

Kakai believes that the first factor for the rise in inflation in the Kurdistan region is due to the Russian-Ukrainian crisis, which contributed to an increase in food prices and others globally due to the lack of supply and increased demand for them. The second factor is the reduction of the Iraqi dinar exchange rate against the US dollar from 1180 to 1450 dinars per dollar. One of the year 2020, which directly reflected on the economic situation of the region.  

 

Kakai expects a decrease in the level of inflation during the next six months in Iraqi Kurdistan as a result of the increase in supply and decrease in demand as a result of the policy pursued by the governments of Erbil and Baghdad, especially after the recent data to secure foodstuffs and other necessary items in government stores.

  

The annual rate of inflation in the governorates of the region for the year 2021 was about 7.5%, according to the latest surveys of the Kurdistan Region Statistics Authority.  

  

Salary arrears  

The population of Kurdistan is about 6 million and 33 thousand people, including 1.2 million government employees, and the region needs 895 billion dinars (614 million dollars) per month to distribute salaries, or about 10 trillion and 740 billion dinars (7 billion and 368 million dollars) annually.  

  

The employee in the public sector, Ridar Muhammad, suffers from difficult living conditions as a result of the delay in receiving his monthly salary, as he says that he receives one salary every 50 days or more.  

 

Muhammad added that from the beginning of 2022 until the current month of May, employees received 3 salaries in Erbil and Dohuk, while employees of the governorates of Sulaymaniyah, Halabja and Kermian received only two salaries out of 5.

  

Raidar blames the Erbil government, which lacks a successful plan to provide salaries, in addition to the political dispute with Baghdad.  

  

The Kurdistan Region of Iraq has 3 sources of public revenue: its share of the federal budget, revenues from oil sales, and non-oil revenues from taxes, fees, and customs fees.  

  

The economic advisor to the Presidency of the Kurdistan Parliament, Dr. Arshad Taha, says that the region has not received its share of Iraq’s federal budget of 12.5% on a regular basis since 2014, which coincided with the drop in global oil prices, while the war against the Islamic State led to the displacement of more than two million Iraqis towards the region. , which caused the accumulation of financial obligations regarding employee salaries and dues to oil companies and contractors.  

 

Taha links the spread of the Corona pandemic to the difficulty of providing salaries, as the pandemic has led to an unprecedented drop in oil prices and zero public revenues, which raised the ceiling of financial obligations and loans to 30 billion dollars.  

  

Taha revealed that the region has a monthly financial deficit of $25 million, since all of Kurdistan's oil contracts are participating, that is, they have not invested in the oil industry, which has led to more than half of the oil revenues going to companies investing in the region's fields.  

  

Last year, the Erbil government agreed with the Iraqi government to send a monthly advance of 200 billion dinars, which it received in the last 6 months of the last year, but it received only one advance during the five months of the current year, forcing Erbil to compensate the salaries with the increased oil revenues during the months Last.  

  

family control  

For his part, the former Kurdish MP, Ghaleb Muhammad Ali, believes that "the misdistribution of oil imports and family and party control is one of the causes of the salary crisis." He says that the region depends 85-90% on oil imports, as it produces 500,000 barrels daily, with revenues of one billion and 200 million dollars per month. At current prices, at a time when the total salaries are about 600 million dollars.  

 

 

Ali accuses the influential ruling parties in the region of acquiring 60% of those revenues, amounting to 14 billion and 400 million dollars annually, which causes a continuous salary crisis affecting the Kurdistan economy and its employees.  

The economic expert, Idris Ramadan, points out that a large part of the public sector employees in the region have moved to the private sector, which in turn suffers from many problems. and Social Security.”  

  

Ramadan concluded that the private sector in Kurdistan impedes the development process in the region as a result of the lack of a law that guarantees the rights of its workers.

SULAIMANI — Erbil’s budget deal of 200 billion Iraqi dinars from Baghdad will not have an effect on the Kurdistan Region’s financial state, said Fazil Nabi, the former undersecretary of the Iraqi ministry of finance.

Nabi told Voice of America (VOA) on Wednesday (June 15) Erbil should have received the 200 billion IQD monthly in 2021, as part of the agreement with Baghdad, but instead only received the funds four times.

He stated the federal government owes the funds to the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) and said if the KRG representatives defended the rights of the Kurdistan Region in the Federal Supreme Court effectively the court’s ruling would be in the favor of the KRG.

Nabi said oil revenue was high and the economic situation in the KRG was very good, while reforms in the field of revenues have had a positive effect on government revenue.

He said the KRG can distribute salaries without the 200 billion IQD from Baghdad and it has been observed a number of times that the government has been able to distribute salaries before receiving the funds from Baghdad.
