President Barzani Discusses Situation of IDPs with IRC President Miliband

  • Monday, 16 Feb 2015

Kurdistan Region President Masoud Barzani today met with President of the International Rescue Committee (IRC) David Miliband in his office in Salahaddin to discuss the humanitarian situation of the IDPs and refugees in Kurdistan.

Mr. Miliband said his organization has been active in Kurdistan, and he is here to find out for himself how the IRC could further help the KRG cope with the large numbers of IDPs. He said the IRC would conduct advocacy in countries around the world to direct more urgently needed assistance for IDPs and help the KRG cope with this heavy burden.

For his part, President Barzani thanked the IRC for its activities helping IDPs and refugees. He stated that providing shelter and assistance for the IDPs is a priority of the KRG, but the fundamental solution to this problem is to expel the terrorists and for these people to then be able to return to their homes.
The two also discussed the political and security situation in the country in general.
