After the federal government succeeded in organizing local elections for the governorates, including Kirkuk Governorate, where these elections had not been held since 2005, political dialogues were held under our auspices, and for more than one round, between the forces that won the governorate council seats, and others through a committee formed for this purpose.
The dialogues resulted in an agreement to form a Kirkuk administration coalition to include the winning forces. They also resulted in a paper for the political agreement that included the basic principles, a political axis and an administrative axis, in addition to the cultural and economic axis.
In the context of implementing what was agreed upon in the last dialogue session, we call on the members who won membership in the Kirkuk Provincial Council to hold the first session of the Council, headed by the oldest member, next Thursday, July 11, 2024, at exactly one o’clock in the afternoon in the Provincial Council building.
We also call on the concerned political forces to cooperate in completing the implementation of what was agreed upon in the political dialogues, and to complete these dialogues in the coming days.
