“I will sit with Kurdistanis more often to have conversations about how we - together - can build a stronger future,” PM Masrour Barzani announced on Twitter. “I’m always optimistic. I believe in our future. I believe in you - the public. I believe in reform.”

Moreover, PM Barzani underlined that “for any company, any agreement, any project, one of the government’s conditions for that is that 70% of their workforce need to be from local people. The government is not something separate from you. The government is part of you.”

Moreover, he underlined that the provincial administration has been given authority to plan well to increase income to improve life conditions and increase job opportunities.

PM Masrour Barzani also asked the “people to support their government and I ask all the political parties to put Kurdistan’s interest above their narrow party interests.”
