KDP official, Ary Harsin, said to reporters, “There is a significant understanding and very positive steps being taken, with considerable rapprochement between the two parties.”

Referring to the upcoming formation of the new regional government, Harsin stated, “We are looking forward to delivering very good news to the citizens of the Kurdistan Region soon.”

Efforts to form the new Kurdish government began soon after the October 2024 parliamentary elections, which altered the political dynamics in the Kurdistan Region, Shafaq News Agency reported.

The October 2024 parliamentary elections solidified the KDP's position as the dominant party, securing 39 seats, with the PUK trailing behind with 23 seats.
