The Kurdistan Regional Government Representation in the United States congratulates all candidates who were elected in yesterday’s U.S. midterm elections, as well as Members of Congress returning to office. We look forward to continuing our longstanding tradition of bipartisan support in the U.S. Congress and working with members of both parties to further strengthen the enduring relationship between the United States and the Kurdistan Region. The partnership between our two peoples, built on shared values, mutual interests, and decades of cooperation, remains an important foundation for continued friendship and collaboration.

Statement by Prime Minister Masrour Barzani I warmly congratulate the elected Speaker, the Deputy Speaker and the Secretary of the sixth term of the Kurdistan Parliament. I also congratulate the patriotic, hardworking, fearless and caring members of parliament of the Kurdistan Region for maintaining legitimacy and reactivating the Kurdistan Parliament. Your decision today is loyalty to the sacrifice of the martyrs and the will of the voters. This step is the success of the will of the people of Kurdistan. Reconvening the parliament is a commitment to the implementation of the democratic process in our region. I hope that in the coming days, other members of parliament will participate in parliamentary sessions and fulfill their legitimate national and moral duties and live up to the trust placed in them by their voters and fulfill the responsibilities entrusted to them. I call on all parties to come forward for the sake of our national interests, together, to serve our people and homeland better, and protect our constitutional achievements. Masrour Barzani Prime Minister of the Kurdistan Regional Government
