Nechirvan Barzani: Absence of President Jalal Talabani Deepens Crises

ERBIL, Kurdistan Region: In a response of a reporter's question on to what extend the absence of Jalal Talabani affects Maliki's decisions against the Kurdistan Region, Prime Minister; Nechirvan Barzani stated that it clearly deepens the crises.

Barzani praised Talabani's role in Iraq and said, "It is clear for all the Iraqi components that Jalal Talabani as the president of Iraq was always into solving the problems through dialogues and negotiations."

In the rest of his response, the prime minister mentioned that for today's Iraq, the absence of Jalal Talabani has negative effects on the pending issues in Iraq, and worsening the problems somehow between the KRG and Baghdad as well as other Iraqi issues aside the KRG issues with the Iraqi government.

Barzani said that Talabani is the one who has a way for gathering every Iraqi component on a table to solve the problems.

He concluded by saying that the absence of Jalal Talabani is felt by every single Iraqis.

"From the bottom of our hearts, we wish him a good recover," he added wishing Talabani to comeback and serve the country as the president who is known as problem solver.

PUK blocks everything, even the new cabinet. It would be better if its leaders (Hero Talabani, Kosrat Rasul and Barham Salih) decide right now if they split and form 2 or 3 new parties or if they held a convention to elect a new leader.

They just grip to their own personal power and refuse to admit that they have lost election precisely because of that greediness.

It is extremely difficult to discover exactly what is going on - especially with Jalal Talabani's health

Towards the end of last year we were seeing photos of Talabani where he appeared to be laughing at a share joke - we were lead to believe he was recovering - we were also told that he would be returning to Kurdistan in the New Year

It is now half way through March and there appears to be no possibility of Talabani returning to Kurdistan in the near future - if ever - it is time for his party to face facts and elect a new leader
