If an agreed sale ( most likely)based on FY 2023 it will be announced within 10 -14 days max.That provides notice for vote through at June 21 AGM.If they are under hostile threat, the buyback is part of that battle,if not it's a stabilisation program pre Sale RNS.Corporate news highly likely very near.

Iraqi envoy to the UN: #Erbil and #Baghdad have reached an agreement to re-export oil.

"The teams of the #KRG and federal government have reached an agreement on resumption of #oil exports".

[beernut1] 17/5/2024 10:16

Thinking about it Barzani did come back from Baghdad in about April saying an agreement had been reached.
( April jut gone as they would call it last April)

A serious related issue is looming, this being a world shortage of tea, coffee and digestive biscuits due to the sheer volume of ‘meetings̵7; in Iraq.

The knock on effects are considered inflationary as prices in western economies for said food commodities skyrocket due to Iraq cornering the market.

Joe Biden has been briefed (during s rare spell when he was awake) and is mindful that this issue will add to US inflation and delay the US FED lowering interest rates. Hence, another delegation has headed to Iraq to push for a resolution.

No detail beernut, the report refers to an agreement made in April last year so let's hope the envoy isn't talking about that one, I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Translation:-

Rudaw an hour ago - Iraqi envoy to the UN: Erbil and Baghdad have reached an agreement to re-export oil.

Iraqi envoy to the United Nations said that Erbil and Baghdad have reached an agreement to resume oil exports. They have reached a basic agreement to continue sending salaries to the Kurdistan Regional Government.

Iraqi Permanent Representative to the United Nations Abbas Kazem made the remarks at a Security Council meeting on the situation in Iraq.

"The two governments are working to continue to stabilize their relations in all areas, especially the issue of budget and salaries of employees, pensioners, Peshmerga and security forces of the Kurdistan Region," Kazim said.

The federal government has been sending the salaries of the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) employees since April. According to the Iraqi official, due to continued coordination between them, they have reached an appropriate solution on the money, they have reached a basic agreement to continue sending.

The Security Council meeting is seasonal. UN Secretary-General's Representative to Iraq, Jenine Plaschardt, read out UNAMI's report on the situation in Iraq.

"The teams of the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) and the federal government have reached an agreement on the resumption of oil exports from the Kurdistan Region," the Iraqi Permanent Mission to the United Nations said.

On March 25, 2023, the Paris Arbitration Board suspended oil exports from the Kurdistan Region, according to the Iraqi budget law; The Kurdistan Region must deliver 400,000 barrels of oil per day.

On 04-04-2023, in the presence of Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Sudani and Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) Prime Minister Masrour Barzani in Baghdad, an agreement was signed to resume oil exports from the Kurdistan Region, but after nearly 14 months has not yet resumed.

Hopefully all the efforts in process by many can quash the haters and get a deal done. The six dollar a barrel is still being touted an this is still the biggest obstacle.
If they cant get it done now we wait another 16 months.
The company is in good shape and a sale announced at anytime very possible, but I feel not in the next 3 months. Hope I am wrong.
