President Barzani Pushes Protection for Western Kurds

Political activity intensified as leaders focused on rising unrest in Syria. Officials stressed President Masoud Barzani’s ongoing efforts to protect Kurds in Western Kurdistan. These efforts aim to prevent escalation and preserve political agreements.

Fawzi Hariri, head of the Kurdistan Democratic Party’s foreign relations office, emphasized Barzani’s continuous engagement. He stated that Barzani works actively with regional and international actors. Therefore, dialogue remains central to his approach.

Recently, U.S. and Syrian Democratic Forces envoys arrived in Erbil. Their visit followed renewed tensions and violence in northern Syria. Consequently, discussions gained urgency.

Hariri explained that President Barzani maintains communication with Türkiye and Syrian parties. He seeks practical solutions to protect Kurdish communities. Moreover, he promotes calm and coordination among all sides.

In addition, the talks focus on safeguarding the 2025 SDF-Syria integration agreement. This agreement aims to reduce conflict and support stability. However, recent clashes placed pressure on its future.

According to officials, Barzani views the agreement as essential for long-term peace. Therefore, he continues advocating for its preservation. He believes dialogue can resolve disputes.

Meanwhile, the Syrian Democratic Forces adjusted deployments in sensitive areas. Leaders hoped to lower tensions through these steps. Thus, the moves signaled readiness for de-escalation.

Furthermore, U.S. representatives highlighted the importance of coordination. They stressed that instability threatens civilians and regional security. Consequently, they support diplomatic engagement.

Hariri noted that Barzani’s efforts extend beyond politics. He also focuses on humanitarian protection. He aims to shield civilians from violence and displacement.

Additionally, officials discussed mechanisms to prevent further clashes. They emphasized communication channels and mutual commitments. Therefore, structured dialogue remains a priority.

Observers described Erbil as a key meeting point. Leaders often choose the city for sensitive talks. As a result, Erbil continues serving as a regional dialogue hub.

Moreover, analysts highlighted the complexity of the Syrian situation. Multiple actors influence developments on the ground. Therefore, mediation efforts require persistence.

Hariri reiterated that Barzani acts consistently. He does not limit efforts to public statements. Instead, he engages directly with decision-makers.

At the same time, Kurdish communities in Western Kurdistan watch developments closely. They hope diplomatic efforts will bring security. Thus, expectations remain high.

Furthermore, regional actors recognize Barzani’s role. They view him as a stabilizing figure. Consequently, they continue consultations with him.

In conclusion, President Barzani continues working to protect Kurds in Western Kurdistan. His engagement focuses on dialogue, stability, and agreement preservation. Therefore, his efforts remain central amid Syrian unrest.
