It was a pleasure to meet with Kak @HemnMerany , the Director General of the Diwan at the KRG Ministry of Interior. I value the opportunity to reconnect and engage in a thoughtful exchange.
We sincerely thank you for your tireless efforts in strengthening the bonds of friendship and cooperation between Kurdistan and France and in building lasting bridges between our peoples and nations.
We wish you continued success and many more achievements in the years ahead.
Congratulations to our dear friend Dr @YannBraem on being awarded the Knight Insignia of the National Order of Merit.

Statement from the #KRG Ministry of Interior
Despite the Kurdistan Regional Government’s consistent position in support of peace and stability—and its clear stance of not being, nor intending to be, part of any conflict—and notwithstanding the announced ceasefire in the region, on the evening of Thursday, 9 April 2026, at various times, several drone attacks targeted different locations across the #Kurdistan Region. These attacks were successfully intercepted and neutralised.
The Kurdistan Region and its citizens had been anticipating a return to normalcy. However, regrettably, terrorist and malicious actors—who oppose the peace and progress of our region—continue to create unrest.
We reaffirm our firm support for peace and stability and call on all parties to cease such attacks and refrain from targeting the security, stability, and interests of the Kurdistan Region and its citizens.

The unity and solidarity of the Kurdish people in support of the #Kurdish cause in #Rojava have sent a clear message to the world: this nation deserves better. Kurds are a key factor of stability in the MENA region, yet we will never remain silent when it comes to our rights.
The Land of the Braid
In honor of the sacred three-stranded braid of #Kurdish girls—after a martyred girl from #Rojava had her braid cut by a soldier of the so-called ‘new #Syria.’
The braid is not just hair; it is identity, dignity, and resistance.
5 children’ve died in #Kobane, #Rojava, as a result of siege conditions & extreme cold.
The so-called #freeworld mustn’t remain silent. Rojava stood on the front lines against #ISISdefending not only its own people but global security. Abandoning them now is unjust and shameful.
Signed a Cooperation Agreement in #Vienna with the International Centre for Migration Policy Development #ICMPD, headed by Ms. Susanne Raab, aimed at formalizing a strategic partnership to strengthen cooperation on migration management and related policy areas.
Pleased to meet with H.E. President @AlsisiOfficial. We agreed to enhance coordination to protect stability in the Kurdistan Region, Iraq, and the wider region.
We stressed closer ties between the Kurdistan Region and Egypt, particularly in investment and trade.
