Barzani and US Ambassador Meet in Erbil
ERBIL
— Kurdistan Region President Masoud Barzni received US Ambassador to
Iraq, Douglas Silliman, on Thursday to discuss bilateral ties and latest
developments in the region.
According
to a press release by Barzani’s office, the pair exchanged views on the
war on terror and the current political and security situation in the
region.
They both
agreed that the defeat of Islamic State (IS) militants in Iraq’s Mosul
may not be interpreted as end of terrorism in the country, and all the
partners need to continue close coordinations to uproot the threat of
terror.
Reviewing the military and political relations between Erbil and Washington was also part of the discussions.
