Iraqi foreign minister Husein told Al Jazeera Iraq has reached an agreement with
the United States to allow Iraqi oil exports via a channel near Oman through the
Strait of Hormuz. He said Iraq’s losses from the Iran conflict and export
disruptions have reached $60 billion. Iraqi energy officials said exports
recovered in October after a sharp fall, rising from 2.65 mln bpd in September
to about 3.5 mln bpd.
