    Iraqi gov’t postpones Arab League representative visit to Baghdad-spokesman

    Iraqi government spokesman on Tuesday announced that the visit of Arab League’s representative to Baghdad has been postponed to the end of January.

    “The visit of the Arab League’s representative, Ahmed Bin Hilli, aims at cementing the ties between the Iraqi government and Arab League and enhancing the cooperation to implement the results sought by the two sides” said Ali al-Dabagh, the Iraqi government’s spokesman.

    He pointed out “Iraq appreciates the steps taken by the Arab League to boost the national reconciliation and stabilize the security.”

    The visit of the Arab league’s representative was scheduled for Tuesday, yet the Iraqi government called for calling it off to enable the Arab representative to meet with the highest number of Iraqi politicians.

    Iraq VP decries Justice & Accountability law

    Iraqi Vice President Tarek Al Hashemi criticized Justice and Accountability Law ratified by the Parliament recently saying it includes gaps and weak points that need amendment. Al Hashemi vowed to work on this law in order to dedicate it for national reconciliation between Iraqis. In a statement, Iraqi Vice President hoped the number of beneficiaries from this law would be larger than expected while it would enjoy a democratic framework that goes in line with the current situation.

    On the other hand, Al Hashemi noted that there are positive indications about the demands of the Accordance Front submitted to Iraqi government mainly regarding the release of detainees and the pardon law that has been passed to Parliament.

    Accordance Front underlines Iraq Pardon Law

    The future of Pardon Law will define the fate of the Accordance Front in the political process. This is how Accordance Front MP Adnan Al Dulaimi shaped the picture in a statement to Al Hayat Newspaper, warning that blocking the ratification of the law will reflect on the whole political process. While the bill is still pending between the government that approved the law last month and the Parliament, Accordance Front called to accelerate the ratification of the bill as a step to boost up current negotiations between parties from the front and the government over the return of Accordance Ministers to the government.

    Accordance Front demands have coincided with reports by the Supreme Judiciary Council on the release of 7000 detainees from US Forces d****tion facilities, and prisons from the Justice, Interior and Defense ministries since the start of Imposing Law Operation in Baghdad early 2007. In an interview with Al Hayat Newspaper, Judiciary Council spokesman Abdul Sattar Birqadar stressed that 4900 detainees have been transferred to comp****t courts for not being convicted knowing that the pardon law drafted by the Judiciary Council stipulates the release of thousands of detainees.

    Oil Majors To Meet Iraqis Thursday To Discuss Tech Pacts - Official

    An Iraqi Oil Ministry delegation will meet in Amman later this week with senior executives from five oil majors to discuss the possibility of signing technical support agreements to help develop five oil fields, an Iraqi oil ministry spokesman said Tuesday.

    "A delegation from the Petroleum Contracts and Licensing Directorate will be in Amman later this week to meet with five well-known international companies," Assem Jihad told Dow Jones Newswires in a telephone interview from Baghdad.

    Jihad didn't name these companies but a former Iraqi senior oil official who is still close to the oil ministry said they were BP PLC (BP), Royal Dutch Shell PLC (RDSB), ExxonMobil Corp. (XOM), Chevron Corp. (CVX), and Total SA (TOT).

    Jihad said the Amman meetings would be the second round of talks Iraq is holding with these companies. The first was held in December last year, he said.

    "If they reach conclusions they could sign technical agreements if not they would meet again in a third round," the official said.

    These new agreements would help increase production in five producing oil fields which could include Rumeila and Missan in the south, Kirkuk in the north and East Baghdad in the center, Iraqi oil officials had said before.

    These technical support agreements could be the first step before awarding service contracts to these companies to develop oil fields, the Iraqi officials said.
