During a joint press conference between Turkish President Erdoğan and Iraqi Prime Minister Kadhimi, Iraqi Transport Minister Vehbi Selman al-Hashemi refused to sign the Development Path agreement. After Erdoğan asked, 'Weren't there five agreements?', Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan intervened, and it was claimed that Kadhimi's minister was forced to sign the agreement. The incident caused a diplomatic crisis, with Iran opposing the project and the Iraqi minister being close to Iran. The minister later clarified that the incident was due to technical and procedural aspects.
