Iraqi Finance Minister Hosyar Zebari said Saturday that revenues from a recent oil accord between Baghdad and Erbil are to be shared equally, adding that “a very good portion” of the oil already had been exported through a pipeline to Turkey. In an interview with Rudaw TV, Zebari said that a visit to Baghdad by Kurdish Prime Minister Nechirvan Barzani last Monday had been “crucial” to breaking a six-month deadlock over oil exports.
