ARBIL / Aswat al-Iraq: President of the Kurdish Region Masoud Barzani today declared that he is consulting with President Jalal Talabani on how to deter the formation of the Dijla Command, describing it as an "unconstitutional step" in the areas regarded as "cut-off" from Kurdistan.
Aswat al-Iraq received a statement in which he added that "it is now necessary to inform the public in Kurdistan and Iraq, in general, that we had doubts on the formation of such a Command, which may potentially be a reason for instability in the region."
"The formation of the Dijla Command went against the Kurds, the democratic process and co-existence in the cut off areas of Kurdistan," he confirmed.
