Iraq Warns Foreign Oil Companies Against Contracts With Kurdistan
Oil and Gas People
Baghdad warned international companies that signing contracts without coordinating them with the authorities constituted "gross interference in Iraq's internal affairs, the violation of its national sovereignty and a clear violation of international norms," according to a ministry statement obtained by Sputnik.
According to the statement, the ministry and the government have the right to apply to local or international courts for the protection of national interests. The ministry stressed that contracts concluded with the region's separatist administration rather than with federal authorities are illegal and the state is not obliged to comply with them.
