“ Baghdad is no longer insisting on the supervision of Iraqi oil export company " Sumo " which is state-owned on Kurdistan exports,” the member of Kurdistan Alliance , Qassim Mohammed told “Shafaq News”.
He added that this position represents the beginning of a breakthrough in the crisis .
Earlier , Reuters quoted Iraqi Deputy Prime Minister for Energy , Hussain al-Shahristani announcing some progress in talks on oil dispute with Kurdistan.
Kurdistan has signed last year agreements with Turkey to export Kurdish oil through a new pipeline that extends to the Turkish port of Ceyhan on the Mediterranean to sell it in global markets .
This development has raised the anger of officials in Baghdad that assert that the federal government has the only right to manage Iraq's energy resources .
