On 25-03-2023, the export of oil from the Kurdistan Region through the Turkish World Port was suspended, after the International Court of Arbitration in Paris settled a case between Turkey and Iraq.
"The export of oil from the Kurdistan Region is in coordination with the Iraqi Oil Ministry and within the framework of the budget law," a senior source in the Iraqi Oil Ministry told Rudaw.
"After the amount of Kurdistan oil was given to the local refineries, the sale and export of Kirkuk oil resumed, but this time through Basra," he said.
Iraqi Oil Minister Hayan Abdul Ghani said Thursday that negotiations with Turkey continue to resume oil exports through the port of Ceyhan, which Turkey says was caused by an earthquake The pipe has been damaged.
"Turkey has not officially responded to Iraq to resume the sale of Kurdistan oil, but there is no excuse and Iraq and the Kurdistan Region are technically ready and have coordinated everything," the source said.
