ERBIL, Iraq, Sept. 24 (Xinhua) -- Iraq's Kurdish regional President Masoud Barzani on Sunday reconfirmed holding the referendum on the independence of the Kurdish semi-autonomous region as scheduled on Sept. 25.
"We have decided to hold referendum and we are going ahead whatever the price would be. We are not going to wait for unknown fate, and will not be subject to pressure and threats Camiseta Nelson Semedo Barcelona ," Barzani said during a press conference in Erbil.
"We have reached the conclusion that independence will allow us not to repeat past tragedies," Barzani said in his speech.
He said "the partnership with Baghdad has failed and we will not return to it," said Barzani, who pushed his region toward the referendum on independence despite pressure from Baghdad government, neighbouring countries and Washington to call off the referendum and to negotiate a new deal.
Barzani also said "Iraq was supposed to be a democratic civil state (after 2003), not like what we see a theoretic Camiseta Marc-Andre Ter Stegen Barcelona , sectarian state."
"I urge the people of Kurdistan to go to the ballot boxes to express their views without any problems and to maintain security and order during this democratic experiment," Barzani said.
As for possible military actions against the Kurdish, Barzani confirmed "we don't expect any kind of military conflict with Iraq," he said, adding that such kind of thought "doesn't even cross our mind, but we are ready for everything. We have all the love for the Iraqi army and we are brothers."
Barzani also hoped that Turkey Camiseta Blank Barcelona , a strong opponent of the referendum, would not close its border with Iraqi Kurdish region, warning that both sides would be "losers."
Barzani considered the reactions about the referendum, so far, are not final and most of the world states will accept the fait accompli that would result from the referendum, saying "we will deal with the final decisions of the world states."
He emphasized that the referendum would not establish facts on the ground Camiseta Personalizada Barcelona , but would be a platform for discussion with the government in Baghdad.
"We tried our best to find a solution to these problems in Iraq with Baghdad, with the international community, but Baghdad didn't accept us and they obliged us to take this step that we've taken already," he said.
Barzani said that the referendum is the first step for the people of Kurdistan to decide their future, and "after that, we start a very long process of talks Camiseta Sergi Samper , a year or two years until we will get a good neighbor."
Asked whether the situation would change if the Baghdad government can meet the demands of the Kurds, Barzani asserted the Kurds were "never going back to Baghdad to renegotiate the failed partnership we had in the past."
During Barzani's press conference, Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi made an angry response and reiterated his rejection to the referendum on independence of the semi-autonomous region.
"Taking a decision unilaterally that would affect Iraq's unity and making separation from one side is contrary to the law and unconstitutional, and we will not deal with it or with its results," Abadi said in a statement broadcast on the official Iraqiya channel.
"Such insistence will lead to more problems in Iraq and the region," Abadi warned.
"If the Kurdish regional authorities insist on holding the referendum Camiseta Thomas Vermaelen , there will be subsequent steps to protect Iraq's unity," Abadi said without specifying what these steps would be.
On June 7, Barzani announced his intention to hold a referendum on the independence of the Kurdish region from Iraq on Sept. 25.
The independence of Kurdistan is opposed by many countries because it would threaten the integrity of Iraq and because it comes as the Iraqi forces are in fight against the terrorist IS militant group.
In addition, the neighboring countries of Turkey, Iran and Syria see that such a step would threaten their territorial integrity, as larger populations of Kurds live in those countries.

Steel's utilizations inside of the bar businesses are complex: it is routinely used to make stainless steel bar beat Camiseta Clement Lenglet , splashbacks and sinks, to give some examples. Bar engineers have been using steel in such a way throughout recent years, however its uses are not far reaching, it must be said. There are still a few spots where stainless steel set out not go - in particular, back in time. Everything achieves the end of its life cycle in the long run and must be supplanted; furniture; rugs; pets; people. That is exactly how it goes. To supplant the ragged out wooden bar of a customary British bar and supplant it with steel would not be right, not on good grounds Camiseta Malcom , but rather surely on tasteful ones. You wouldn't wear a prom dress to your group benefit any more than you'd shake up to the graduation ball clad.
