On the eve of the holy month of Ramadan, I extend my warmest greetings and best wishes to Muslims in Kurdistan, Iraq and across the world. I hope this holy month brings joy and prosperity, peace and stability for everyone everywhere.

For all of us, this holy month is an opportunity to focus on forgiveness, patience, compassion, peace and human values. May God accept everyone’s fasting, prayers and all the good deeds done in this holy month.
