The MP of Maysan Governorate, Raed Hamdan Al-Maliki, called on the State of Kuwait to accept the ruling of the Federal Court and to communicate with the Iraqi government to conclude a new agreement to demarcate the maritime borders.
Al-Maliki said in a press statement: “We reject any violation of the Federal Supreme Court, which exercises its jurisdiction in accordance with the constitution and in the name of the people.”
He added: "Kuwait must submit to sound legal logic, as the rules of international law (the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties) do not grant binding status to agreements concluded in contravention of the provisions of national constitutions and the internal laws of states, nor do they recognize contracts that are built on the basis of "corruption of a state representative."
He continued: “It is very natural for Kuwait to adhere to the validity of Khor Abdullah Agreement and to defend its survival in its current form because it included an Iraqi concession that was completely in its interest and at the expense of the Iraqi interest.”
