{Politician: Euphrates News} Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani stressed the departure of the "stuck problems" between Baghdad and the Kurdistan region.

Al-Sudani said in his speech during the opening of the 7th Sulaymaniyah Forum today: "The holding of such conferences in the presence of such a large gathering of researchers and those interested in Iraqi affairs is evidence of freedom of expression and the practice of democratic life in Iraq today."

He added, "We pledged in our government program to provide services to our people and build a strong and cohesive economy and we were able to achieve large percentages of the ministerial program," noting that "the agreement on the draft budget law represents a bold step, avoiding previous failures, and expressing clarity in the vision set for our stated goals in serving the citizen."

He called for "departure of the term {stuck problems}, and replace it with terms of sustainable projects, and common economic opportunities, for the sustainable and equitable well-being of all Iraqis."

"The painful memory of the heinous crime committed by the dictatorial regime against our Kurdish people in the city of Halabja is a sad occasion, and we voted in the cabinet two days ago on the project to turn it into a province, which is the least we can offer in exchange for their great sacrifices," he promised.

The Prime Minister pointed out that his meetings in Erbil yesterday "were fruitful, and I met a group of party heads and representatives of the components, and we had an interview without restrictions, because we are - in word and deed - the sons of one homeland, and one fate."

Al-Sudani said: "The distorted lightnings of the unity of Iraq, which believes that the strength of part of its parts is to weaken the federal government or by weakening other components in the country, were an entry point for the terrorist organization ISIS to attack the heart of the state, threatening all components without exception."

He looked forward to “deep and sustainable economic partnerships, bringing us together with brotherly and friendly peoples, and sharing security with them, with effective and fruitful economic cooperation, can only establish sustainable security.”

He stressed, "We will never accept that the land of Iraq is a starting point to threaten the security of the neighborhood, and our constitution obliges us not to interfere in the affairs of others, just as we do not accept to affect the dignity of our land and sovereignty from the neighborhood or without it."

He pointed out that his government "at the early part attached special importance to strengthening the border guard forces, and increased efforts to control them and prevent infiltration, and eliminate any force that seeks to destabilize, whether in the Kurdistan region or anywhere else in the territory of Iraq," noting that "Iraq's history, geographical location, capabilities, economic capabilities and human resources qualify it to play a pivotal role in the Middle East and the world to become a regional anchor."

"This week was full of successes and highlighting a humanitarian issue linking Iraq to its regional and international environment through our holding the climate conference in Basra," he continued.

Al-Sudani said: "We have seeked within our government program to give priority to addressing the effects of climate change through a number of projects that contribute to reducing emissions, including the establishment of renewable energy plants, rehabilitation of closed sewage sites, projects to combat desertification, metered irrigation technologies for water, and heavy water treatments."

"We recently signed contracts for the fifth licensing round to invest and stop burning associated gas, to reduce carbon emissions by large proportions, and we will proceed to develop projects that turn associated gas into a source of electric power," he added.

He pointed out that "it launched a major initiative to plant 5 million trees and palm trees throughout the governorates of Iraq, accompanied by the launch of a national guide to urban afforestation for the first time in Iraq."

Al-Sudani concluded his speech by saying: "The world can learn many lessons from the battle of the Iraqi people, of all their races and religions, in their war against terrorism."
