With the arrival of the new year 2025, I extend my sincere congratulations and best wishes to all the citizens of the Kurdistan Region, wishing everyone continued joy, happiness, and well-being, and a new year filled with peace, prosperity, and progress.
I take this opportunity to salute the resilient and steadfast people of the Kurdistan Region for their perseverance. Unfortunately, the fabricated issues and the denial of the region’s rightful financial entitlements by the federal government have burdened the salary recipients in the region, causing them to endure yet another year filled with financial difficulties.
Although the Kurdistan Regional Government has fully honored its commitments, it has become essential to address this issue decisively in the coming year.
We also hope that the political discussions within the Kurdistan Region will lead to an agreement on the cabinet, with the goal of forming a united, strong, and inclusive government that will take responsibility, face current and future challenges, and serve all components of the region without discrimination.
A happy new year to all, hoping it will be a year full of security, peace, and development.
Masrour Barzani
Prime Minister of the Kurdistan Region
