[via PDK]  I can tell you the news coming out of the Kurdish region is great. “The Kurdish government resolved the crisis with Wisdom”  He says Baghdad has no excuses left. They are talking about the HCL and say they have resolved it. They expect Baghdad to rubber stamp the HCL. (Hydro Carbon Law)…We were always told that within hours or a few days they would release the RV after the HCL is finished. It’s a key piece for moving forward with their reforms. I am told they will have the HCL pounded out, signed and official between now and August 5th. There is lots of positive chatter from the Iraqi banking sector that they could go (RV?) within that time frame…fingers crossed…I still hope they roll it out today…
