Shafaq News / A high-ranking delegation from the Kurdistan Regional Government arrived on Sunday in the capital, Baghdad, for a new round of talks in order to secure the region's share in the federal financial budget for the year 2021.

The delegation includes: Minister of Finance Awat Sheikh Janab, Minister of Planning Dara Rashid, Minister of the Region Khaled Shawani, and Chief of the Cabinet of Ministers of the region, Omid Sabah.

Qubad Talabani, Deputy Prime Minister of the Kurdistan Regional Government, usually headed the delegation that visited Baghdad several times, but his infection with the new Corona virus prevented that.

The Finance Committee in the Iraqi Council of Representatives has been conducting, for more than two weeks, a series of meetings in the parliament building with the aim of collecting observations and making the necessary amendments to the draft budget law.

According to the available information, the committee will hold a meeting with the regional government delegation this evening to discuss Kurdistan’s share of the budget.

Parliamentarians and politicians say that the budget needs political consensus, so a political delegation from the region will visit Baghdad later this week with the aim of reaching an agreement with the blocs not to block the passage of Kurdistan’s share in the budget.
