The Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) has frozen the results of its independence referendum outcome.
The KRG conducted an unconstitutional referendum on 25 September with the majority of voters overwhelmingly in favour of independence.
Last week Federal Iraqi forces began moving into the disputed regions, areas controlled by the Kurdish Peshmerga militia, but constitutionally a part of Iraq.
This has resulted in clashes between Iraqi forces and the Peshmerga, but the KRG have just now declared a ceasefire and asked for an open dialogue with Baghdad on the basis of the Constitution, after initially refusing to. Following the defiant referendum, the KRG became immediately isolated with Iran and Turkey closing all borders to the autonomous region and pledging to place economic sanctions.
The referendum received no international support from the international community, with Israel being the exception.
