PUK official warns about economic, security deterioration in Kurdistan Region
The Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK) warned the security and economic situation in the Kurdistan Region would deteriorate if the region’s share of 2018 Iraqi national budget is cut down.
Saadi Ahmad Pire told Firat TV that decreasing the share of the region is an attempt to halt the region’s economic and security advances.
Pire added that ratifying the national budget of 2018 without Iraq’s Kurdish partners would lead into a new crisis between Erbil, the capital of the region, and Baghdad.
He, however, reiterated that Iraqi leaders are wise enough to prevent from decreasing the region’s share.
