Kurdistan-Iraq,
-- Seven Kurdish political parties called on
citizens to air their grievances in a legal and
orderly fashion and not resort to violence in an
August 8 statement printed in the daily online
newspaper "Hawler Post" on August 9.
Demonstrators have protested in several Kurdish
cities in recent days, demanding the regional
government provide better services, including
electricity and water. "The people of Kurdistan are
free to put forward their demands and highlight the
[government's] shortcomings.
But it is their duty to submit their demands to the
government through legal means, to protect its
institutions and adopt civilized means in order to
have an understanding between the public and the
authorities, so that none of them resort to
violence," the statement said.
The statement was signed by the Patriotic Union of
Kurdistan, the Kurdistan Democratic Party, the
Kurdistan Islamic Union, the Kurdistan Social
Democrat Party, the Kurdistan Islamic Group, the
Kurdistan Communist Party, and the Kurdistan
Toilers' Party. KR
