Agence France Presse reported Kurdistan Regional Government President Masoud Barzani and Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri Maliki are trading harsh comments.
“Through neglect and threats that have led to dangerous consequences, Maliki’s government is actually increasing the current crises,” Barzani said in a statement.
“It appears that these parties don’t wish to see an agreement between Iraqis,” Maliki said in response in his statement.
