The Kurdistan Region is facing an uncertain situation and different problems. More than ever, we need the unity and solidarity of all parties, especially the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP) and the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK), which hold the future of the region in their hands.”

	 

	CALL FOR DIALOGUE

	 

	The Kurdistan Region Presidency called on all political parties as follows: “Leave all your conflicts aside and seek solutions through dialogue. The things that make us who we are are much greater than the things that separate us.

We also support the ongoing process and progress in resolving the issues between the Kurdistan Region government and the Iraqi Federal government.
