Two items there didn’t seem to add up: Shipments of emergency gasoline and cooking oil from neighboring countries started arriving Thursday to help stave off shortages... Without an internationally recognized government, Iraq lacks legal authority to resume exports. That has resulted in brimming storage tanks for oil and other petroleum products, limiting further production. Even recognizing that cooking oil has nothing to do with petroleum (how it got into the story is a mystery), this seems odd. Does Iraq have no capacity at all to refine the stuff that’s overflowing in the storage tanks to serve it’s own needs?
