His Eminence Sayyid Al-Hakeem, Head of the National State Powers’ Alliance, received the President of the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan, Mr. Bafel Talabani, at his office this morning, where discussions focused on the evolving political developments in Iraq and the region.
H.E. underscored the importance of settling constitutional entitlements and moving forward with forming the government within the designated timeframes, stressing the need to place national interests above all else. H.E. pointed out that Iraq is situated in a turbulent region marked by instability, which makes it essential to establish a fully empowered government capable of addressing economic, political, and financial challenges.
