Nechirvan Barzani energized a massive crowd in Sheikhan, urging strong voter turnout for the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP) in Iraq’s November elections. From the start, he stressed that a strong KDP presence in Baghdad is crucial to protect Kurdistan’s rights and secure long-term regional stability.
During his speech, Barzani expressed gratitude to the enthusiastic crowd for their unity and commitment. He emphasized that harmony among Muslims, Yazidis, and Christians reflects the real power of Kurdistan. This unity, he said, must be preserved for future generations. Moreover, he highlighted that coexistence defines the spirit of the Kurdish people.
Sheikhan’s history of resilience also received recognition. Barzani recalled how the district stood firm during major conflicts, including the Anfal campaigns and the war against ISIS. He praised the courage of Peshmerga fighters and civilians who defended their land with pride. Their strength, he added, continues to inspire Kurdistan’s future.
Furthermore, Barzani called on voters to back KDP List 275 in the upcoming elections. According to him, a strong KDP presence in Baghdad ensures Kurdistan’s autonomy and ongoing development. He underlined that the party’s voice in the capital is vital for enforcing Iraq’s constitution and maintaining political balance.
He also spoke about KDP’s past achievements in economic reform and service improvement. Through effective governance and inclusive leadership, the party has strengthened public trust. Barzani promised to expand these efforts, focusing on youth empowerment, education, and equality across the region.
In addition, he described Sheikhan as a living model of coexistence, where all communities celebrate, work, and grow together. This spirit, he said, is what sets Kurdistan apart from the rest of Iraq. Finally, he urged every voter to choose KDP List 275, reminding them that a strong KDP presence in Baghdad safeguards Kurdistan’s stability, unity, and progress.
The KDP’s campaign continues to emphasize stronger regional representation, economic development, and equal rights for all citizens. With growing enthusiasm across the Kurdistan Region, the Sheikhan rally marks another step toward a confident and united Kurdistan.
