But the real question is who gets to sign the contracts and manage the fields. And on this point the Kurds won't budge-Iraq's Constitution, they say, gives them control over so-called future fields (existing fields are controlled by the central government, and the fate of those in Kirkuk will be decided by a referendum next year). "In management of new fields, we are adamant that we will not share with federal authorities," says Ashti Hawrami, an English-trained petroleum engineer who is the new minister of natural resources. "Planning, coordination-no problem. But who has the right to write contracts? We can consult with the center, but the ultimate authority lies with the [Kurds]."
High-level jabs have already been exchanged over the issue. The Iraqi oil minister, Hussain al-Shahristani, has insisted publicly that contracts signed by the Kurdish regional government must be subject to the ministry's review. In response, Kurdish Prime Minister Nechirvan Barzani issued a statement that many interpreted as a threat of secession: "The people of Kurdistan chose to be in a voluntary union with Iraq on the basis of the Constitution. If Baghdad ministers refuse to abide by that Constitution, the people of Kurdistan reserve the right to reconsider our choice."

IMO, as stubborn as they sound, this could be a potential huge hurdle (and delay) in the progress of Iraq and the HCL being implemented. Any thoughts??

Thank You! You're so kind.

On Sunday I believe it was I said that there was a program on television that I found very intriguing regarding Iraq. It included an in depth interview with Qubad Talabany, representative of the Kurdistan Regional Government to the US. And also touched on some other issues. Anyhow here's the link Foreign Exchange with Fareed Zakaria | Where America Meets the World You will be directed to his main homepage then all you have to do is click on "This Weeks Show" at the top right of the screen.

Enjoy

That Elf person also posted in the shoutbox: "Anyone have proof the dinars are being taken out of circulation yet? Or is it still a rumor?".

Frightened the bejeebies out of me!
