Responding to the Kurdistan 24's question about using the Kurdish language on the parliament's website and formal letters, Abdullah revealed that all his activities as deputy speaker of parliament are published in both Arabic and Kurdish languages.
"I advised that all parliament statements should have a Kurdish version beside the Arabic version," Abdullah said. "Our intention is to ensure that there is a Kurdish version for every single Arabic document."
