"

and for the Committee on Energy the lack of parliamentary resolve the issue of common fields and invested by the neighboring countries are also the reasons for the absence of technology strategy and planning with the Iraqi government and the blackout on information from the Ministry of Oil. According to a member of the Committee on Energy Gas Odai Awad, "The government does not even have now a clear strategy on investment and resolve the issue of the common fields with neighboring countries," explains that "the absence of strategy and lack of planning encourages countries that we have common fields with the investment, they can not wait" .
draws Awad said in an interview for "Alsumaria News" that the absence of strategy is not just about the fate of the common fields with Iran but has to do with "also with Kuwait and other neighboring countries," and shows that the problems with Iran, "is not great because of joint committees," asserting that " bigger problem with Kuwait, which has invested these fields and began to dig italics.

For its part, The Ministry of Oil that it will not tolerate any abuse in Iraq, and stresses the need to resolve the issue of common fields "in accordance with international norms," arguing that drilling and investment of those fields from one party has significant damage.

"
The Jihad that "an asylum of any country unilaterally to drill wells in any common field and competitively would lead to a kind of low pressure in the field, and thus would be affected countries," pointing out that "the optimal solution is joint investment of the fields and in a form which ensures that excess. "
Jihad and emphasizes that "Iraq does not accept waive its oil if oil and one barrel, and the other party does not accept the waiver also over its wealth." And reduce the Iraqi government concerns about the investment of the oil fields shared by neighboring countries, especially Iran, and considers that the whole subject exciting media, stressing that Iraq does not have any information on Iran's investment to one of the joint oil fields.

"

"
He continues Alchukrgi "We doubt the government's words on the issue of Iran and others, especially that the interest of the Shiites or Iran or the party is almost overshadowed by the interest of Iraq."
and draws Alchukrgi to that position the Iraqi government "applies to the supporters of the Shiite parties and opponents of the Sunni forces is better tolerated with Iran and the other tolerated with Saudi Arabia," and asserts that "these entities are not eligible for state-building," adding that the actions of those actors show a "failure of political."
