Dissolution of PKK-affiliated parties

Recently, Iraq’s Supreme Judicial Council ordered the dissolution of several political parties and groups with links to the PKK terrorist organization, which is banned in Iraq.

The Iraqi government has begun taking serious measures against the PKK/YPG in the country, demonstrating its commitment to national security and political stability.

With this step, the government also expressed its full confidence in the Turkey-Iraq road construction project being implemented jointly with regional partners.
