Water Issue in Iraq and Iraqi Kurdistan
Region (IKR)
Dr. Saladin Perababi*
Introduction
1-Iraq is located in an area called in history Mesopotamia
or the land between two rivers because of the well-known of
Tigris and Euphrates reveres. The abundant of water of
these rivers and some of its branches was the case behind
appearance of the oldest human civilization in the history
i.e., Sumerian, Assyrian, Babylon as well as Islamic
Caliphate of Abbasids, with estimated population at that
time more than what existing now.
Currently Iraq is calculated within the countries facing
water crises because of imbalances between the supply and
demand of the water, and that regarded as one of the
barriers of its economic development.
