Statement from National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan Welcoming Constructive Dialogue Between The Government of Iraq and Kurdistan Regional Government
We welcome the constructive dialogue conducted last week between the Government of Iraq and the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) meant to resolve outstanding issues in a manner consistent with the Iraqi constitution. We are encouraged by the Government of Iraq’s decision to release additional funds to the KRG to help ensure civil servants receive their salaries and to promote stability and economic growth. The United States will continue to work with all relevant parties to expeditiously reopen the Iraq-Turkey pipeline as soon as possible. The United States will also continue to remain intensively engaged to promote a stable and secure Iraq and to promote durable resolutions to outstanding issues.
