The United States on Thursday provided funds to the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) to cover Peshmerga salaries for July, as was agreed under the memorandum signed between the US and KRG last month.
“The US has sent the money, and the Ministry of Finance and Economy of the KRG will decide on the date of distributing it,” Jabar Yawar, chief of staff for the Peshmerga ministry, told Rudaw.
“According to the KRG-US memorandum, they provide part of the salary of those [Kurdish Peshmerga] forces who are at front lines and the KRG provides the rest,” Yawar said.
