On behalf of the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, I congratulate President @realDonaldTrump on his inauguration as the 47th President of the United States.

I joined President Macron and other leaders this evening in Paris for the reopening ceremony of the iconic Notre-Dame Cathedral.
This historic occasion symbolizes the resilience to preserve our shared human heritage.

I’m pleased to attend #COP29 in Baku. This annual gathering is an important opportunity for us to take meaningful steps toward a sustainable future.

I condemn today’s terrorist attack in Ankara. My thoughts and prayers are with the families of the victims, and I wish a swift recovery to the injured. We stand in full solidarity with the people and government of Türkiye against terrorism.
I greatly welcome the decision of the German government and parliament to extend the mandate of German troops serving in Iraq.
ISIS remains a serious threat to Iraq, regional security and stability. I highly value the presence and contributions of our international coalition partners in the ongoing fight against terror.
I am delighted to have met with President @RTErdogan once again in Ankara. Our discussions covered a range of issues, including enhancing regional stability and further strengthening the ties between the Kurdistan Region, Iraq, and Türkiye.
I am delighted to welcome Dr. Masoud Pezeshkian to Kurdistan and Iraq on his first official visit abroad as President of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Our discussions were constructive, focusing on strengthening relations between the Kurdistan Region, Iraq, and Iran, based on mutual interests and a shared commitment to regional stability.
Today, on the 36th anniversary of the Anfal campaign in Badinan, we stand united in remembrance of the 182,000 innocent lives lost to one of the most heinous acts of genocide in modern history by the former Iraqi regime. The brutality inflicted upon our people during those dark days, from Garmian to the farthest reaches of Badinan, is a stain on humanity that will never fade.
While the Iraqi High Tribunal has rightly recognized the Anfal campaign as genocide and a crime against humanity, justice remains incomplete. We call upon the Iraqi government to take immediate action to provide adequate compensation to the families of the victims, ensuring that their suffering is acknowledged and addressed.
In the Kurdistan Region, we reaffirm our unwavering commitment to supporting the families of Anfal victims and to seeking international recognition of this atrocity as a genocide. It is our duty to ensure that the world never forgets the horrors they endured.
May the souls of the Anfal martyrs rest in eternal peace. Their sacrifice will forever inspire us to strive for a just and peaceful future for Kurdistan. We extend our deepest gratitude to the brave people of Erbil and the surrounding areas who opened their hearts and homes to the survivors of Badinan. Their compassion and solidarity are a testament to the resilience of our people.
On the International Day of Remembrance and Tribute to the Victims of Terrorism, we remember and honor the victims of ISIS terrorism in the Kurdistan Region, Iraq, and across the world.
