Ambassador to Iraq, to discuss several matters of shared importance.
The meeting took place in Erbil on
Tuesday and was attended by Memet Mevlut Yakut, the Consul General of Türkiye

Regional Government's Foreign Relations Department. The participants engaged in
a comprehensive conversation regarding the overall state of affairs in Iraq,

Kirkuk and said: "Over the past few years, significant differences have
emerged among the many communities residing in the city. The solution lies in
reverting to the principles established by President Mam Jalal in governing the
city following the provincial council elections to transform Kirkuk into a
model city that fosters peaceful coexistence among all communities, ensuring
that no party experiences persecution, injustice, or marginalization."
Another subject discussed during the
