BAGHDAD/

Aswat al-Iraq: The Moroccan authorities ordered the Kurdish oil vessel, United Leadership, to leave its territorial waters.

The vessel carries one million barrels of Kurdish oil since 22 May last, which changed its route unexpectedly.

Kurdish Premier Njirvan Barzani stated that the export of Kurdish oil proves to Baghdad that the Kurds can control their oil sales.

But, Baghdad regarded such shipment as "stolen and illegal deals", warning all possible buyers of future repercussions with Baghdad.
