Yesterday the KRG's Minister for Oil announced that the region owed 8 billion dollars to the banks and a further 2.5 billion dollars to oil companies!
Was this the right time to make such a statement about the KRG's economy? At a time when our valiant peshmerga are laying down their lives in defending us, and the rest of civilisation, from ISIS and working people receive only a quarter of their monthly salaries this statement was like a bucket of icy water thrown in their faces.
It will certainly cause many questions to be asked about the ability of those in charge of managing the economy
