''Iraq warns Total over Kurdistan deals''

"Total should not sign oil deals with the Kurdistan region without Iraq’s approval, Deputy Prime Minister for Energy Hussain al-Shahristani said on Sunday, warning the French major would bear the “full consequences” if it did.

Total said on Friday said it was considering possible investments in semi-autonomous Iraqi Kurdistan, which is locked in a long-standing feud with the central government in Baghdad over who controls the OPEC country’s oil rights and territories."
