Kurdish Prime Minister Masrour Barzani and Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani spoke by telephone on Saturday about resuming oil exports from the Kurdistan Region. Both leaders described the development as a significant achievement benefiting all Iraqi citizens. Al-Sudani expressed gratitude for Barzani's role in facilitating the recent agreement that enabled the restart of exports. Barzani commended al-Sudani's work in removing barriers that had previously stalled progress.

The Kurdish leader expressed optimism that this agreement would advance the passage of a federal oil and gas law. He emphasized the pressing need to address public sector salary delays in the Kurdistan Region and secure consistent payments through 2025. Both officials discussed ensuring the region receives its allocated portion of Iraq's 2026 federal budget. They also reviewed the federal government's Development Road project, which connects Iraq with regional markets.
