Iraq's Kurdistan region concerned about latest developments in country

IRBIL, June 13 (KUNA) -- The President of Kurdistan Region in Iraq, Nechirvan Barzani, expressed on Monday concern about the latest political developments in the country and the repercussions of recently resigned Member of Parliament from Sadr bloc.
Barzani said in a tweet, "We hope that no complexity and chaos will occur and that the Parliament will represent all Iraqis," calling at the same time on all Kurdish parties to unite." On Sunday, the Speaker of the Iraqi Parliament, Muhammad Al-Halbousi, approved the resignations of the Sadr bloc's deputies led by Muqtada al-Sadr.
That came after Al-Sadr called on the head of his bloc in the Iraqi parliament, Hassan Al-Adhari, to submit the bloc's deputies' resignations to Al-Halbousi.
Al-Sadr considered in a statement that this step was a sacrifice for the liberation of Iraq, its sovereignty, and security. (end) sbr.amm.ara
