On June 25 the three candidates held a meeting, but without any results.

“Kamal Mirawdeli has left Kurdistan for the past 35 years and he has only seen the suffering of the Kurdish on TV,” said Garmiani. “If he didn't win, he will head back to Europe.”

Garmiani said that he feels that he is the best one to stay in the race because just like Mirawdeli,

As for Muhammad?

“(He) is a businessman…and if he doesn't win, he will head back to business with other officials,” he said. “Only me and Barzani have witnessed the sufferings of our people and have the ability to provide services for them.”
