A new step to correct the Iraqi-Kuwaiti relations

Kuwait received last Wednesday 02/27/2013 the first Iraqi passenger plane after a break of more than (22) years after the invasion of Kuwait, which has done the former head of the regime on 2 August 1990, which led to the destruction of the two brotherly countries, and abused extreme insult to the idea of (Arab Unity ), unity does not generate invasion military and annexation, but the according to the needs objective coupled with free will by the people of both countries, as such invasion rift in the Arab body per attitudes of Arab States, and allowed foreign intervention even became border camps large armies of foreign and imposing siege on Iraq. As a result, the situation in Iraq under the provisions of Chapter VII of the UN Charter, has been that the issuance of UN Security Council Resolution No. (687) of 1991, as committed Iraq to pay compensation deducted from the oil revenues, which were then modified after the fall of the former regime and became representing 5% of oil revenues as well as the so-called debt owed by Iraq.

You have received Kuwait amounts exceeding (20) billion dollars so far, and the remaining is the amount (13) billion dollars, and many of the institutions and individuals of various nationalities who were in Kuwait during the invasion, became demanding compensation from unfairly and fabricating incidents or reasons lead to compensation for losses and fake or naive.

On the other hand, it has brought the debt on Iraq as a result of those invasion crazy, reaching debt because of Gulf Wars I and II, including more than (120) billion dollars, has been reduced large parts of them, especially from the countries of the Paris Club, as some countries canceled the entire debt, but the brothers in Kuwait demanding amount of approximately (16) billion dollars we do not know how it was calculated, and why the Iraqi people bear the burden of work has nothing to do with it?

Have passed Iraqi relations - Kuwait after the fall of the former regime between traction provided which delayed her return to normal, but we believe that the improvement in relations with the brothers Kuwaitis pave the way to solve the problems relating to the problems of drilling Leaning by them for wells oil near the Iraqi border and the more than (100) wells , each is no more than (150) meters from the border, while the agreements signed with neighboring countries prohibiting drilling up to a distance (30) kilometers from the border areas.

As to be overcome the adverse effects of building the port of Mubarak on the navigation and trade of Iraq, where the sea corridor Iraqi tight, and this is what prevents receive large vessels, which represents a major problem for Iraq and requires solutions to them with Kuwait to make the Iraqi trade foreign across the sea open They are among the most important tools used by Iraq to import, as well as export to abroad. Iraq has (6) Ports small fall within inland waterways Shatt al-Arab and Khor Abdullah, where water shallow and does not allow for ships large to pass through, note that the total payloads that can be discharged through it about (15) million tons per year, and this is not enough and does not represent something Iraqi trade, and open sea lanes is also in the interest of Kuwait through what you get to meet with the passage of large vessels through its territorial waters.

The open skies Kuwait before the Iraqi aircraft as well as raise lawsuit International Book on those planes only after payment of the amounts estimated by Kuwait Airways, ended push Iraq to five hundred million dollars for the lines Kuwaiti and open airports around the world in front of Iraqi aircraft and return things to normal natural.

The opportunity we believe is now available for the development of relations with Kuwait, and to consider objectively and seriously in all the problems outstanding, in order to establish relations based on brotherhood and common interests, and non-interference in internal affairs, and open new horizons for normal relations between the two brotherly countries Garin.
