Former Chief of Staff of the Iraqi army Babakir Zebari told Rudaw that both the two sides may reach a truce.
Zebari said that Erbil “has never initiated conflict, and has only repelled attacks.”
The two have most recently clashed near Kurdistan Region's borders with Turkey and Syria.
The Peshmerga beat back multiple attacks until Iraqi PM Abadi announced a 24-hour ceasefire on Friday to allow the Kurds and Iraq to work on the deployment of federal troops to the disputed territories.
"The main task of this joint technical committee is to allow the deployment without violence of federal forces along the borders," Saad al-Hadithi, spokesperson for Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi's spokesman, told AFP.
Baghdad wants to bring official border crossings with Turkey and Syria under its control.
Hadithi said the meeting is to ensure that a deployment of federal forces is done in a “peaceful and humane fashion” while returning to 2003 borders of the Kurdistan Region.
