Morteza Ebadi told Kurdpress in an interview that the US is sending political, economic and military delegations to the region and Baghdad to make the two governments to stop their ties with Iran but all the efforts by the Americans will fail as the relations between the two governments and Tehran are based on mutual respect and mutual interests and nothing can replace the interests, adding that high-ranking officials in the Kurdish region have repeatedly stressed the reality in their meetings with US officials.

Answering a question about the formation of the formation of the new government in the region, Ebadi told Kurdpress that the new cabinet assumes power at a time that the war against the Islamic State (IS) is over and region is leaving its economic crisis behind and the region is economically improving.

There are cultural and historical ties between Iran and the Kurdistan Region and the two enjoy a long borderline in which 7 border gates are active and Iranian cheap staff and the strong will of the officials from the two sides have created an unprecedented opportunity for boosting economic relations so that about 40 percent of Iraq imports are entering the country from the joint border gates with the region, the consul added, revealing that the economic trades between the sides experienced a huge increase.
