U.S. Calls for Political Dialogue in Iraqi Kurdistan Post-Election

The United States has issued a call for political dialogue among parties in Iraqi Kurdistan to ensure the swift formation of a stable and representative government. This move follows Sunday’s elections, which took place with high voter turnout and without major security incidents.

Deputy spokesperson for the U.S. State Department, Vedant Patel, highlighted the importance of this dialogue in a news briefing on Monday, urging all political factions to engage constructively for the region's stability.

Noting the seamless conduct of the elections, Patel emphasized that the U.S. sees this as a pivotal opportunity for Iraqi Kurdistan to strengthen its governance structures through inclusive representation.
