KRG spokesman: Iraqi constitution “outlines” Kurdish border

Erbil, 1 July (AKnews) – The Kurdish president will not give up the tiniest piece of land that belongs to the Kurdistan Region and at the same time he will not confiscate any land which is not Kurdish, an official said.

A spokesman for the presidency of the Kurdistan Region, on condition of anonymity, denied reports that Massoud Barzani has “given up” some Kurdish areas.

“Our position is that the borders of the Kurdistan Region have been outlined by Article 140 of the Iraqi constitution which also prescribes solutions to disputed areas,” said the source.
