Falah Mustafa, head of foreign relations said the visit of Kurdistan region delegation discussions with the federal government last week over the suspended issues between the Baghdad and Erbil went on in a positive and friendly atmosphere, confirming that for all the problems the two sides had decided to refer to Iraqi constitution.

"I can say the visit was successful" he said.

Concerning the Baghdad government reshuffle, the Kurdish official confirmed that Kurdish alliance would not give up foreign ministry, since it’s the Kurdish list right to have a leading ministry and "the ministry has served so much the political and diplomatic case in Iraq".
