According to Kordpress, Hoshiar Zibari wrote this evening in a message on the "X" social network that the final statement of the recent meeting of the international coalition against ISIS in Riyadh - which was held with the participation of "New Syria" - was completely devoid of any reference to the central role of the Kurds.

He emphasized that the Peshmerga forces in Iraq and the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) in Syria, with the support of the international coalition, played a decisive role in the defeat of the so-called Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIS).

In his message, Zibari expressed his concern over the fact that despite the presence of the Iraqi Foreign Ministry in this meeting through an official of this ministry, the final statement was published without any reference to the role of the Peshmerga and the Kurds.

On Monday, Saudi Arabia hosted a meeting of senior diplomatic and defense officials of the international coalition against ISIS in Riyadh.

Also, comprehensive agreements between the Syrian government and the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) were welcomed, and Iraq was appreciated for its leadership role. In this statement, it is emphasized that the transfer of detainees from Syria to Iraq is very important for the security of the region.
