Article 140 and the Federal Council, along with amending the e******n law… A delegation from the “Party” to implement outstanding issues with Baghdad
12/18/2025
On Thursday, December 18, 2025, the Central Committee of the Kurdistan D********c Party held an expanded meeting during which it discussed several issues, most notably the formation of the Kurdistan Regional Government, the Iraqi parliamentary e*******s, partnership and cooperation in Baghdad, in addition to the political situation in the region, and the implementation of outstanding issues with Baghdad.
The committee said in a statement, a copy of which was translated by Al-Jabal, that “the Kurdistan D********c Party does not see it as right to mix the talks on forming the regional cabinet with the federal government; the issues of the region must be resolved first, and then the necessary and joint steps towards Baghdad must be taken, and our party’s delegation has begun its tasks in this regard.”
According to the statement, the meeting emphasized “the need to implement the outstanding issues with Baghdad, such as: Article 140, the establishment of the Federal Council, the formation of the Federal Court in accordance with the Constitution, and the Oil and Gas Law
.” It also stressed “the serious endeavor to amend the unfair Iraqi e******n law, and to resolve the budget and salary issue permanently and in accordance with the federal system. A high-level delegation from the Kurdistan D********c Party was designated for this purpose.”
Below is the text of the statement:
Under the supervision of His Excellency President Masoud Barzani, and in the presence of the Vice Presidents, members of the Central Committee and branch officials, the Central Committee of our party held an expanded meeting today, Thursday, December 18, 2025.
The meeting began with a minute of silence in honor of the pure souls of Kurdistan’s martyrs, foremost among them the immortal Barzani and the late Kak Idris. Following this, several important and timely issues were raised and discussed, and the necessary decisions were made.

First topic: Formation of the tenth cabinet of the Kurdistan Regional Government
This process began in conjunction with the end of last year’s e*******s, and unfortunately, the Kurdistan Parliament has not yet been activated, the President of the Region has not been elected, and the tenth cabinet has not been formed.
Immediately after the e******n results were ratified, our party, through a special delegation, visited the Kurdish parties and groups to initiate dialogue aimed at forming a broad-based government. However, some parties chose to join the opposition, and we respect their decision.
Simultaneously, dialogue continued between our party and the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK). We exerted considerable effort to ensure that our agreement would not be finalized until the Iraqi parliamentary e*******s. Unfortunately, the PUK—due to flawed readings and preconceived notions of the parliamentary e******n results—unjustifiably extended the dialogue beyond the November 11, 2025 e*******s, despite our warnings that the pre- and post-e******n circumstances would be significantly different. The PUK, however, had already made its decision.
Currently, the door to dialogue remains open for reaching an agreement based on the results and entitlements of the Kurdistan Parliament e*******s, and the votes and trust of the people of Kurdistan must be respected.
Our party does not believe it is appropriate to conflate the discussions on forming the regional cabinet with those of the federal government; the region’s issues must be resolved first, and then the necessary joint steps can be taken with Baghdad. Our party’s delegation has already begun its work in this regard.
Second topic: E*******s for the Iraqi Federal Parliament
The meeting discussed the November 11, 2025 e*******s, in which our party achieved a resounding victory, securing the votes and trust of over 1.1 million voters in Kurdistan and Iraq, and winning a significant number of provincial seats. This victory is the fruit of the struggle and sacrifices of our martyrs, the wisdom and efforts of our party’s cadres, members, and supporters, the enduring legacy of Barzani, and the trust placed in our party’s leadership and structures by the people of the Kurdistan Region and the Kurdish areas outside the region’s administration.
Therefore, the meeting expressed its gratitude to all party and government officials, Peshmerga forces, and cadres, as well as to the families of martyrs, the loyal public, e******n committees and teams, and professional organizations, for their dedication to the party’s success. It also thanked the security forces for providing a calm environment for the process and congratulated the winning candidates, commending the efforts of all candidates on list (275) who worked diligently. The meeting called upon the winners to faithfully represent the hopes and aspirations of all citizens of Kurdistan and Iraq, and to work towards enacting laws that serve the people and establish good governance.
Third axis: Partnership and work in Baghdad
The meeting affirms that the people of Kurdistan have the right to negotiate in Baghdad with a unified voice and as a single entity, as a Kurdish nation, not as separate political parties. The Kurds and Kurdistan must be genuine partners in governing Iraq alongside their Shia and Sunni brothers, while respecting the rights of all other communities, just as the new Iraqi state was founded on three principles: partnership, balance, and consensus, which have become the spirit of the permanent constitution.
The meeting emphasized the necessity of implementing outstanding issues such as Article 140, establishing the Federal Council, forming the Federal Court in accordance with the Constitution, and the Oil and Gas Law.
It also stressed the importance of seriously pursuing amendments to the unfair Iraqi e******n law and finding a permanent solution to the budget and salary issues in a manner consistent with the federal system. To this end, a high-level delegation from our party was designated.

Fourth axis: The political situation in the region
The general political situation in the region, Iraq, and Kurdistan was discussed. The meeting noted that developments in Türkiye regarding the resolution of the Kurdish issue and the peace process are a source of hope and will have a positive impact in all areas.
Regarding the changes in Syria, the meeting welcomed the vision of the countries seeking stability in Syria, which links stability to the extent to which the distinct identities of the various components, including the Kurdish people, are respected. We hope that these changes, by learning from the mistakes of the past, will guarantee the rights and freedoms of all national, religious, and sectarian groups, and promote peaceful and civilized coexistence.
Fifth axis: Regulatory affairs
The provincial organizational offices presented an analysis of their activities and challenges. The meeting discussed proposals to strengthen ties with the public in cities and villages, enabling party o****s to more effectively convey the people’s demands and opinions to the leadership, so that our colleagues in the regional and central governments can play their part in addressing these issues and providing for the needs of the people.
