Nechirvan Barzani made the remarks on Wednesday in a joint press conference with the visiting Austrian Foreign Minister Alexander Schallenberg in Erbil.
"Within the framework of the security agreement concluded between Iran and Iraq and with the cooperation and coordination of Baghdad, important measures have been taken and we hope that these measures will prevent any security and military problems from emerging," Barzani said.
Meanwhile, the KRG prime minister said that with the actions being taken, there is no justification for conducting military operations on the part of Iran against these groups in the Iraqi Kurdistan Region.
Iranian foreign ministry spokesman Nasser Kan'ani said on Monday, "According to the agreement, the deadline set for the disarming terrorist groups in the Iraqi Kurdistan region ends on September 19 and it will not be extended."
Meanwhile, Major General Mohammad Hossein Bagheri, the chief of staff of Iran's Armed Forces has recently warned, "If Iraq does not abide by its commitments regarding terrorist groups in the Iraqi Kurdistan region by September, we will resume the operation against those groups with might."
