President Bafel at Nawshirwan Mustafa's mausoleum

In a statement on the memorial of Nawshirwan Mustafa, Bafel Jalal Talabani, the President of the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK), said that Mr. Mustafa was a father not only to his children but also to the majority of the Kurdish people.

President Bafel's statement is as follows:

In remembrance of Mr. Mustafa, a founding member of the PUK and a close friend of President Mam Jalal, I bend my head in devotion to his pure legacy and honor this mournful occasion in a dignified manner.

Mr. Mustafa was an intellectual, a Kurdish politician, and a leader of the new revolution. He represented a new school of thought, intellectualism, bravery, and organizational charisma that was instrumental in the advancement of the Kurdish struggle throughout all of its stages and played a crucial role in the armed uprising of our people.

I would like to add that: in addition to being a father to his own children, Mr. Mustafa also served as a father figure to the vast majority of Kurds.

I want to speak for Gorran now more than ever. If a large mountain, like Mr. Mustafa, represents your past and who you are today, there is hope for the future. This should motivate us to make more significant progress.

When a father like Mr. Mustafa, who was a mountain of courage and safety against the storm, brought peace via his shadow and tranquility via his thoughts, dies, it is painful to lose him. However, his belief serves as motivation to keep going.

Because Mr. Qubad and I felt the grief of fatherlessness, I can relate to Gorran and his descendants' suffering.

I am hopeful that Gorran and PUK will be that mountain for our nation because everyone knows that President Mam Jalal and Mr. Mustafa were very close in their last political project and step of their lives to the point of unity and took significant steps.

I take this opportunity to let everyone know that the PUK is ready to work toward a new accord and reunification with Gorran.

Without a doubt, we can achieve Mam and Mr. Mustafa's goals and dreams and complete them together.

This is the proper strategy for achieving both national and Kurdish objectives.

A thousand salutations to Mr. Mustafa's soul and the souls of all the martyrs and warriors on the path to liberation.
