Baghdad – Dr. Barham Saleh, minister of planning
and development cooperation and a distinguished
member of the Kurdistani bloc, confirmed that the
constitution document represents the harmony among
the disagreeing parties in the constitutional
committee, which has adopted various opinions.
In an interview with Saudi Arabia's Al Watan

He
confirmed the special situation of Kurdistan's
federation and that it protects the Kurds against
tyranny. He pointed out that the creation of the
regions would rely on the coming National Assembly,
which would have to issue a law that regulates the
issue of regions within the federal framework.
As regards some of the worries on the political
arena that the federation would lead the country to
division, Saleh said, "Iraq is a diverse country and
the former regime and the regimes before it have
established the sectarian and national approach,
which divided the community.
If you talked to any Kurd, he would be worried about
the future of the political situation in Iraq; would
tyranny be back or not?"
