Spokesperson for the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK) Saadi Ahmed Pira said his party has finalized its list and candidates for the upcoming Kurdistan parliamentary elections.
“Our candidates and list are prepared. We’ve used past election experience to select our candidates,” Ahmed Pira told Channel8.
Ahmed Pira believes that failure to hold elections will undermine the Kurdistan Region’s position on the international level.
“We have defended the public employees of the Kurdistan Region, and the decision to distribute salaries should have been made by the Council of Ministers,” he said.
The Kurdistan parliamentary election is scheduled for June 10.
The Kurdistan Democratic Party’s (KDP) participation in the elections remains uncertain, as it has previously declared its intention not to participate due to decisions made by the Federal Court.
