For his part, the leader of the Fatah Alliance parliamentary bloc, Muhammad Karim, said: “The forces of the state administration have given a final opportunity for the talks to reach a solution regarding the Kurdistan region, as the negotiations should not exceed the next. two days."
He pointed out that "the majority of the state administration forces and other political forces took the decision to proceed with voting on the draft federal budget law, whether negotiations reached a solution or not, due to street pressure."
