The British and the Kurds

A UK Parliamentary delegation has been in Kurdistan ahead of the Kurdish Regional Parliament elections - due may 19th but likely to be substantially delayed - we'll see.

“It has been two steps forward but one step back for the Kurdistan Region in the last year. Links with Turkey have improved but relations with Baghdad have declined. Respect for the UK remains very high in Iraqi Kurdistan, thanks to our role in establishing the safe haven in 1991 and in what is commonly referred to as ‘liberation’ in 2003.
