About the positions of the Region authorities about the separation of Iraq he said; the authorities have not announce yet that the region is to separate, instead we are obedient to the constitutton of Iraq. However the emergence of ISIS has caused Iraq automatically get separated, namely; the geographical region of ISIS is located between Iraq and Kurdistan Region. That was why ISIS itself got generated as a result of Iraq mismanagement. We said if you desire a unified Iraq you have to follow the constitution of Iraq. We always say this that if we want to dissolve the concerns we need to be obedient to the constitution. However when the central do not accept this what can we do?
