Iraq’s oil ministry claimed no information on Kurdistan oil revenue due to lack of access
Kurdish MP in the Iraqi Parliament, Hoshyar Abdullah, asked the Oil Ministry on February 14 to disclose how many barrels of oil are exported by the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) per day, as well as information regarding revenue of the region’s oil sales. Since October 2015 the Kurdistan parliament has been in recess after Barzani forces prevented Kurdistan Parliament’s Speaker Yusuf Mohammad Sadiq from entering Erbil city on October 12, 2015 and Kurdistan PM Nechirvan Barzani has removed four members of his cabinet from the Change Movement and replaced them with KDP politicians. The Kurdish opposition accused the Barzani and its KDP party of a monopoly all government’s positions in Erbil
