Sharjah 24 – KUNA: Iraqi Oil Minister Hayan Abdul Ghani and Lebanese Minister of Energy and Water Walid Fayyad signed on Friday a memorandum of understanding (MoU), whereby Baghdad would supply Beirut with fuel and crude oil.
The MoU is based on a previous Iraqi Cabinet resolution that aims at providing Lebanon with fuel oil and crude oil in support of its electricity sector, the Iraqi minister said in a press statement.
