Surprise ruling threatens wedge between Iraq and Kurdish govts
Arab News says a surprise ruling by Iraq’s high court cast doubt on the legal foundations of the independent oil policy of Iraq’s Kurdish-run region and threatened to drive a political wedge between the two governments, officials warned Wednesday.
Iraq’s Supreme Court on Tuesday struck down the legal justifications for the semi-autonomous region’s oil policy, effectively calling into question the future of the region’s oil contracts, exports and revenues.
The ruling comes during a politically sensitive time, as efforts have stalled in Iraq to form a government.
