Kurds move quickly to secure oil gains | The National

Kurds move quickly to secure oil gains | The National:



"Iraq’s Kurds have succeeded tactically in boosting their economic and political leverage to help them achieve greater independence.



Since the country’s second biggest city, Mosul, fell on June 10 to militant groups, the Kurdish leadership has worked quickly and systematically to advance its interests as Sunni and Shiite politicians squabble over how to retake the city.



One of the key elements for Kurdish success is the sale on international markets of oil produced in the Kurdish region of Iraq."
