Erbil, Kurdistan Region, April 14, 2021

We strongly condemn the terrorist attacks that targeted Erbil International Airport and a base hosting Turkey’s forces in Bashik tonight.

There are no justifications for these attacks. These attacks will only lead to further tensions and destabilization of Iraq, and threatens its highest national interests.

It is important to take serious stance as these attacks continue. The Kurdistan Region and Iraq’s Federal Government must strengthen coordination and cooperation with the support of the International Coalition to confront the groups that are behind these attacks. These groups must be held accountable and permanently stopped to prevent undermining the peace and stability of the country.
