Economic: Determining another path to development away from the control of the region

Information / Baghdad… Economic expert Nabil Al-Ali confirmed today, Wednesday, that the negotiations taking place between the federal government, Turkey, and a representative of the Kurdistan region are in order to determine the crossing point to Turkey on the road to development.

Al-Ali told the Maalouma Agency, “The federal government does not control the border crossings in the Kurdistan region, and this is a major knot in the development road project, and a source of concern regarding fears that may occur in the future that affect the project.”

He explained, “The government proposed creating another path, so that the development path would have two paths to limit any future political role.”

He stated, “The two paths are parallel and will be from 25 km to 50 km long. The first will be within the region, and the second will pass through Nineveh Governorate in Sinjar specifically, so that the federal government will be the one controlling the road away from any problems that may occur in the future.”

The Governor of Nineveh, Abdul Qadir al-Dakhil, confirmed in a press statement on Tuesday that negotiations are taking place between the federal government and the Turkish side, in coordination with the Kurdistan region, to determine the entry point of the road from Iraq to Turkey.
