The head of the Kurdistan Democratic Party in the Iraqi parliament, Arafat Karam, said on Saturday that the heads of the Kurdish blocs in the Council will meet to discuss a number of new proposals with the Kurdish members of the Finance Committee.

Karam said in a press statement that "the heads of the Kurdish blocs in the Iraqi Council of Representatives will meet Saturday among themselves and with the Kurdish members of the parliamentary finance committee."

"There are new proposals on the share of Kurds from the draft law of the Iraqi budget was reached, and we will discuss and submit it to the Iraqi government."

Karam pointed out that "the vote on the draft law of the Iraqi budget for the year 2018 will be very difficult," noting that "the vote on the bill needs a new session, and this is very difficult now, because there are more than fifty Shiite deputies alongside Sunni MPs and Kurds Do not accept the draft law, and miss each session about one hundred deputies, so the ratification of the project is very difficult without reaching an agreement with the Kurds and Sunnis and this section of the Shiite deputies.

According to the draft law of the Iraqi general budget for 2018, approved by the Iraqi Council of Ministers on 5 November 2017, the share of the Kurdistan region was reduced from 17% to 12.67%, and the project does not use the designation of the Kurdistan Regional Government, and replaced by the Kurdistan Regional Government, Kurds in this attempt to evade recognition of the Kurdistan Regional Government.

The deputies of Kurdistan have submitted a project of nine points to resolve these problems, but the Iraqi government did not provide a clear answer to solve the problems.
