Concerning Iraq changes as ISIS attacking Mosul and the relations between Kurdistan Region of Iraq and central government, Jahan San-at Press have had a talk with Nazem Dabbagh the representative of Kurdistan Region of Iraq in Iran of which details follow:

 

In a response to a question relating to the results of ISIS’s attack on oil affairs of Kurdsitan Region Dabbagh said: these attacks have not impressed such affairs but oil exportation market of the Region that has caused oil selling to be descended. Nevertheless he said that oil transferring pipes of the Region to Turkey are under the control of our forces.

 

Relating the discarding paying the budget from central government he said the policy was adopted by Mr. Maliki. Thus with Kurds’ tolerance we have been able to export oil and paid stuff’s salaries. However with the formation of new government good measures have been taken and the concern of the budget of the Region will be solved.

About oil exports by ISIS to Turkey he added that Turkey not only does not play any role to suppress but it also on the basis of some media it has had cooperation with ISIS. The oil wells presently taken under control by ISIS, in fact belong to Iraq not the Region. Concerning how to export oil by ISIS I have no information, nevertheless it is the border between ISIS and Turkey, namely, the border through which ISIS can export oil belongs to Turkey. Relating to Turkey’s policy to the current crisis of Iraq he continued that Turkeys activities are accompanied both with security respect and religious as well as economy. He added that Turkey indeed is hatching a plot which has been designed just the same as to recover the Osmania’s emperor I already mentioned. Therefore in my view both actions by Turkey are negative and mistake, one is to destroy the negotiation and peace with Kurds of Turkey and another is to cooperate with ISIS. ISIS is just a phenomenon which is the symbol of terrorism. He said European countries for such concerns as human rights cannot prevent their citizens from joining ISIS.

In a response to question about the position ISIS leader concerning not tending attack Kurdish regions he said we should not trust in enemy, and the reason for such positions is that ISIS leaders know the preparedness of the Pishmerga forces to defend the regions under their control.

 

About Nuri Al-Maliki remarking concerning an occurrence of a big conspiracy in Iraq, the Kurd Press agent asked Dabbagh and he said that it is not undeniable.

 

Therefore he mentioned this important concern that the reason for this situation is the way of governing in Iraq. The question of “who is the governor” was originated from Iraq people and politicians. According to this he criticized Nuri Al-Maliki’s attitude that we should not merely care others’ actions but ours in this crisis.

 

Mentioning domestic authorities’ role in Neinava Province to form the crisis he said: they did well perform their jobs and tended in the direction to ISIS.

 

Kurd Press reporter asked him about the formation of the Attackers and he said the members forming the attackers are ISIS, Baath, Al-Qaeda, Sophia and Naghshbandia, Jond Al-Islam, Katab Ashrin, Harzaei Group and a group called Crusaders. These groups form forces who took the control of Mosul. He added the agreements among these groups are superficial.

 

The representative of KRG of Iraq said about collaboration between federal government authorities and KRG to confront ISIS no remarks made. Therefore the policy of KRG is that still without an agreement he consider this his duty to defend his regions and rejects any offence and infiltration from ISIS. Nazem Dabbagh concerning the results of political differences to appearance of Fallujah and Mosul crises said the happened situation in these regions originated from such political differences and struggles.

 

Authoritarianists are not respecting the rights of religious and tribal groups of Iraq accordance with the constitution, not being obedient to Erbil agreements and part of the constitution of Iraq, being dissatisfied of different political groups from each other are the reasons for such situations and this concern also occurs among Shia, Sunni and Kurd.

AL-KHAZAR CAMP, July 17, 2014 (AFP) - The head of the UN's refugee agency praised Iraq's autonomous region of Kurdistan for welcoming hundreds of thousands of displaced people and urged the world to offer it "massive" support.

Antonio Guterres told reporters during a visit to the Al-Khazar camp for displaced Iraqis that he was "humbled by the generosity and the solidarity of the government and of the people of Kurdistan in this very difficult moment."

People forced from their homes in Iraq's Nineveh governorate since a jihadist-led offensive that started on June 9 have fled en masse to neighbouring Kurdistan, which has remained largely stable.

Guterres stressed that the autonomous region had already borne a heavy burden with an earlier influx of refugees from war-torn Syria and he added that the strain was made worse by the fact that the government in Baghdad had stopped sending Arbil its share of federal oil revenue.

"And even without those resources, the government and people of Kurdistan have been receiving all these people and sharing with them everything they have," he said.

Kurdistan and the Shiite-dominated federal government have been locked in an escalating war of words in recent weeks.

Arbil blames Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki for the security collapse that saw extremist Sunni militants seize large swathes of land in western and northern Iraq.

Maliki has in turn accused the Kurdish leadership of taking advantage of the chaos to expand the borders of its envisioned independent state by moving into disputed territories, and of illegally exporting Iraqi oil.

Guterres, who met Iraqi leaders in Baghdad on Wednesday, urged the international community "to provide massive support for the Iraqis displaced, for the Iraqi victims of this conflict, but also to provide massive support to the government and the people in Kurdistan."

He said that the population of internally displaced people in Iraq now topped two million.
