Yes Iraq: Baghdad
The four presidencies in the Kurdistan region ended their meeting today, Monday, which was held under the auspices of the President of the Region, Nechirvan Barzani, to discuss the repercussions of the recent Federal Court decision regarding the oil and gas file, stressing that the region will continue to exercise its "constitutional rights and will not abandon them."
A statement said that "the joint meeting of the four presidencies in the Kurdistan Region discussed the decision of the Iraqi Federal Supreme Court issued on February 15, 2022 regarding the oil and gas law in the Kurdistan Region."
The meeting confirmed, according to the statement, that "the decision of the Federal Supreme Court is not acceptable, and that the Kurdistan Region will continue to exercise its constitutional rights and will not give up in any way its constitutional rights and powers, and will take all legal and constitutional means in order to protect the constitutional rights and powers of the Kurdistan Region."
The statement indicated that the reasons for rejecting the four presidencies are due to "the decision of the Federal Supreme Court contrary to the text, spirit and principles of the true federal system, and a clear and declared violation of the constitutional rights and powers of the Kurdistan Region."
He added that "this court decision, and indirectly an unconstitutional amendment to the constitution, because it led to the stripping of constitutional authority from the regions and granting them to the federal authority, and this is not consistent with the powers of the Federal Court and is a retreat from the federal system."
The statement pointed out that "the court relied, in legislating its decision, on Iraqi laws issued in the years 1976 and 1985, which are central laws that are inconsistent with the principles of the new Iraqi constitution of 2005, which changed the system of government in Iraq from the central system to the federal system and clearly distributed powers between the regions and governorates." and federal authority.
The statement of the four presidencies in the Kurdistan Region considered, "This decision, in addition to undermining the constitution and the federal system, has special goals behind it at the same time and it is not a neutral decision, especially since Iraq is going through sensitive and complex political situations, and the political parties are engaged in talks to reach a to an understanding and finding a way out of the political impasse and stalemate, and this decision further complicates the situation.”
He stressed that "the Kurdistan Region's oil contracts were concluded based on the Kurdistan Region's oil and gas law and the text of Article (112) of the Iraqi constitution, while after 17 years the federal authorities have failed to perform their legal duty to formulate an oil and gas law in Iraq despite the Kurdistan Region's initiatives in the year 2007, and the federal government then retracted the joint draft of the oil and gas law that had been approved.”
The statement concluded the importance of “the formation of the Federal Supreme Court under a new law in accordance with the provisions of Article (92) of the Constitution and perform its functions in accordance with the Constitution, and laws are issued in accordance with the Constitution for all constitutional institutions and their formation in accordance with the Constitution in a manner that ensures the embodiment of the federal system.”
The Presidency of the Kurdistan Region will continue, according to the statement, "to work with the political parties in the Kurdistan Region and Iraq and with the international community, in order to take action that protects the constitutional rights of the Kurdistan Region."
The statement noted, "The Parliament of Kurdistan will take the necessary legal and constitutional measures, and the Kurdistan Region Judicial Council will continue to work from its constitutional position with the Iraqi judicial centers to defend the constitutionality of the region's rights."
The statement of the four presidencies in the Kurdistan Region concluded by expressing willingness to solve problems on the basis of the constitution, and to continue constructive dialogue with the federal government, stressing that "the friends of Iraq and the international community support solving problems on the basis of the constitution."
