The Iraqi Prime Minister, Haider Al-‘Abadi, asked the KRG regime in Erbil give Baghdad full control of the airports and borders in Iraqi Kurdistan, according to Al-Sura News .
‘Abadi warned that if the KRG rejected to abide to this demand, Baghdad will close-off the borders and airspace over Iraq, making it difficult for Iraqi Kurdistan to resume commerce.
