Political differences shouldn’t affect UN work – official

Arbil-Disagreement ARBIL / IraqiNews.com: The Kurdish government’s coordinator for the UN affairs said on Monday that the differences between political powers should not affect the work of the international organization in Iraq by not issuing reports about Kirkuk and the disputed areas. “The political differences in Iraq should not be a reason for the UN to stop making reports about Kirkuk and the disputed areas but the international pressure should continue to develop the political process in Iraq not to delay it,” Dindar Zebari said. “If the UN mission’s recommendations do not have appropriate solutions for the disputed areas, the international organization should intervene to tackle this problem which hinders the national reconciliation,” he added.
