London / obelisk: see Jackson Diehl president of the Center for Economic Studies and Foreign Policy, which take from Istanbul-based, in an article published by the newspaper (The Washington Post) that "the Obama administration at odds permanently with the Kurdish government, and tried to pressure Turkey for not allowing extended oil pipelines new Kurdistan will be given economic independence from Baghdad, and frequently supported, from the point of view of Kurdish, Maliki's attempts to impose its authority on the region. "

According to Dell, the Kurdish official involved in the Kurdish delegation who visited Washington recently told him that "the administration does not see us as a stabilizing force, but a source of inconvenience, as a foreign object in the region complicates matters, such as Israel."

And consistent Turkish writer Sinan Olgin in the view of the Dell in his analysis, he says in an article published by the newspaper (Gulf) Arab Emirates, the United States remains opposed resolutely to conclude this oil deals between Turkey and the Kurdistan Regional Government, because it would "undermine the stability of Iraq and fueling separatist tendencies in the north." In late February during his trip abroad, which included a stop in Ankara, said U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry these concerns in his talks with his Turkish counterparts.

According to Dell, the Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan flow Turkish economic interests and ambitions of the oil to "a bold plan to boost Turkey's regional and extend political dominance at home and ending thirty years of conflict between Turkey and its Kurdish population." Ankara and supplied most of the imports economy of the Kurdistan Regional Government, which accounts for nearly 70% of Turkey's exports to Iraq in the past year, reaching U.S. $ 11 billion. But the initial energy deal between Turkey and the Kurdistan Regional Government is scheduled to lay the foundation for a true strategic alliance.

However, this agreement, according to Olgin, give Turkey significant concessions for exploration in oil and gas fields in northern new Iraq, as well as preferential rates for energy exports to Turkey. On the other hand, help Turkey Kurdistan Regional Government to establish a pipeline infrastructure that will allow the export of oil and gas to Turkey without relying on Iraq's national pipeline, which is controlled by the central government in Baghdad. Olgin says, "within the Turkish government, this breakthrough is seen as a tremendous opportunity to reduce Turkey's dependence on imports of heavy energy."

It is worth mentioning that the agreement helps Turkey, not only in securing energy supplies, but also to overcome the chronic current account deficit of around 70% of Turkey's trade deficit, which is 84 billion U.S. dollars." But the deal, according Olgin "believes Kurdistan, the region's economic wealth in the future without making them hostage to the Iraqi government is increasingly sympathetic."

Under the Iraqi Constitution, the right of the Kurdish region to get 17% of the country's revenues from oil and gas. The Kurdistan Regional Government hopes that allows it to deal with Turkey to obtain more regular revenues from oil and gas. It concludes Olgin article by saying "do not participate circles Turkish government U.S. concerns, but it sees in transactions between U.S. oil companies giant, such as Exxon, Chevron, and the Kurdistan Regional Government, proof that America more worried about their share of the pie in the north of Iraq, not threats alleged stability Iraq. It is not surprising that the Erdogan government decides not to pay attention much to the U.S. government's concerns."
