#Kurdistan
This is extremely shameful and unacceptable. Why do we insist on bending over for the simplest of things? This is not required. It’s bad enough that Erdogan is visiting, but we get it to some extent, politics right?
But this.. illuminating their flag on the Citadel of Hawler? This flag to this day is responsible for the deaths of our Kurdish brothers and sisters across Kurdistan! Where is our backbone? Our ancestors didn’t die for this. And nor will we, the Kurdish population, accept such things. I urge you all to speak up about this. Each and every one of you, forget politics and speak up about this.
They bomb our children! Have some shame. Your grandfathers are rolling in their graves!
The leader of the Iraqi-backed Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP) Massud Barzani in Sulaymaniyah hailed the victory of his forces over Kurd rivals the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK) as a positive change.
