Korek Telecom blasts Iraqi regulator over arbitrary shutdown order

▤ Summary

Korek Telecom is pushing back against an Iraqi regulator’s order that canceled its settlement agreement and froze its operations. The company says the decision is arbitrary, biased, and harmful to subscribers and state revenue. Korek argues that the regulator rejected a tax clearance document and ignored efforts to reach an administrative compromise. The operator says it will take the dispute to court to protect its rights and customer base. The regulator says Korek failed to meet contractual and financial obligations and still owes debts to the state.
