A major meeting of political parties and forces in the Kurdistan Region began today in Pirmam, organized under the supervision of the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP)’s Executive Body. The gathering aims to address critical issues, including the current political and economic situation in Iraq, the Kurdistan Region, and the broader Middle East.

A key topic of discussion is the recent decision by Iraq’s Ministry of Finance to halt the financial entitlements of the Kurdistan Region. The move has sparked strong reactions among Kurdish political factions, who view it as a violation of the region’s constitutional rights.

Representatives from various parties are expected to formulate a unified stance in response to Baghdad’s decision, which could further strain relations between Erbil and the federal government. The meeting may also explore potential strategies to resolve the ongoing budget disputes and ensure the Kurdistan Region receives its fair share of revenues.

Beyond financial concerns, the meeting will assess the overall political landscape, including security challenges, inter-party relations, and regional developments affecting Kurdistan.

This high-level assembly underscores the growing tensions between the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) and Baghdad, as Kurdish leaders seek coordinated solutions to protect the region’s interests.
