Sulaimaniyah: The President of the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK), Bafel Talabani, has issued a strong condemnation of the recent attack on the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, labeling it as a perilous escalation that poses threats to civilian security and regional stability.

According to National Iraqi News Agency, Talabani emphasized the gravity of the situation, urging all involved parties to exercise wisdom and maximum restraint. He highlighted the risk of allowing tensions to dictate events, which could potentially lead to a deeper conflict with unforeseen outcomes. In his statement, Talabani called for a halt to any retaliatory actions or rhetoric that might aggravate the situation further.

Talabani further stressed the importance of conducting a thorough investigation into the attacks, urging the prioritization of de-escalation. He advocated for the necessity of creating an environment conducive to constructive dialogue between federal authorities and local parties. True security, he noted, is achieved through transparent dialogue and mutual respect for national sovereignty.

Affirming the PUK’s commitment to supporting peaceful initiatives, Talabani underscored the union’s readiness to facilitate efforts aimed at restoring stability and safeguarding civilian interests in Iraq and the broader region.
