The sky turned the color of bruised plums. It tasted of sweet apples and betrayal, A ghost-drift through the narrow lanes. ​The mother’s arms are a frozen cradle, The child’s breath is a broken reed; In the silence of the midday sun. The earth drank more than it could feed.

Today, we honor the incredible strength and resilience of Kurdish women. From the legendary leaders of our history to the modern innovators, artists, and activists shaping our future, you are the heartbeat of our culture.

Zimanê dayikê nasnameya me ye, lê bihevrebûn hêza me ye.
Our mother tongue is our identity, but coexistence is our strength. On this #MotherLanguage Day, let’s celebrate the beautiful tapestry of languages in Kurdistan. Diversity makes us stronger. Viva Kurdistan

I extend my sincere gratitude and deep appreciation to the White House, esteemed members of the United States Congress, distinguished diplomats, and respected political leaders for their warm hospitality and the highly productive exchange of views during this visit. These meaningful engagements reflect our shared commitment to advancing regional stability, strengthening democratic institutions, and reinforcing a long-standing strategic partnership built on mutual respect and common interests.
The United States continues to demonstrate strong and unwavering support for our Peshmerga forces, whose role in maintaining security and combating threats remains vital. We look forward to further enhancing our enduring partnership, deepening cooperation across political, security, and economic spheres, and advancing a generational alliance that benefits both our peoples and the broader region.
