Shafaq News / The Federal Supreme Court decided today, Tuesday, that the oil and gas law in the Kurdistan Region is unconstitutional.

Earlier today, the Court held a session to look into the Kurdistan Region's decision to export oil without the approval of the Federal government.

The Iraqi minister of oil had filed a lawsuit against Kurdistan's minister of natural resources, requesting a clarification from the concerned authorities in Baghdad and Erbil. 

He called for adhering to the constitution, stressing the need for the Kurdistan region to hand over its oil production to the Federal Government.
