Erbil, Kurdistan Region, June 27, 2023

On the occasion of Eid al-Adha, I warmly congratulate all Muslims in Kurdistan, Iraq, and the world. I wish everyone a happy Eid.

On this day, let us embrace the messages of Eid on tolerance, peace, and reconciliation and turn it into an opportunity to renew friendship and to start a new chapter together.

Most of all, the people of Kurdistan expect the political parties to make this holiday an opportunity for unity and solidarity so that we can move towards a better future together. Let us all meet this expectation.

Happy holidays to all of you.

Nechirvan Barzani
The President of the Kurdistan Region
