Turkey rejects Kurd export pipelines
- Iraq: Wednesday, February 27 - 2013 at 02:02
Iraq has been told by Turkey it will reject any extension of oil and gas pipelines from northern Iraq without the approval of the Baghdad government, Reuters has reported. "Turkey has officially informed Iraq it rejects extending oil and gas export pipelines from the Kurdistan region to pass through Turkey without approval from federal government," Iraq's oil minister Abdul Kareem Luaibi told the state media network. KRG's natural resources minister, Ashti Hawrami, said earlier this month the autonomous region was pressing ahead with plans to build its own oil export pipeline to Turkey, despite objections from the US, which fears the project could lead to the break-up of Iraq.
