There is no doubt that the EU today is suffering from problems are not uncommon in the absence of historical our leader Mam Jalal, who Hubmthabh great historical figure Kurdish and Iraqi Undoubtedly, the spiritual father and leader of the historic Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK) have repercussions on the Union put, we are colleagues in the leadership of the Union engaged fact re-Order Status Union, to Aastkhv sized problems existing but Union and strengthened and enhanced faction influential and important in the political decision of Kurdistan and Iraq, an important supreme national interest remains, in my view, again, a lot of parties exposed to the problems of the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK) is no exception of this case, to be optimistic and we are working to find solutions, because once again the Union, including possessed of an honorable history deserves to work hard for serious solutions to problems, but union problems also can not view them in isolation from the general political problems in the Kurdistan region, to forget that there is a major social, cultural and political changes in the Kurdistan region and perhaps in Iraq as a whole then surely can not be for us to We look forward to the future or to the role of an actor Union Olltnzimat other in the same composition and the same rhetoric and the same techniques, I'm more than 70 percent of the Kurdish community without the 30 year are young people of different expectations than previous generations deserve political arrangements and bodies and formations different from what we knew. Union force in this subject and any other party linked not only to uphold its history, but was also linked to its ability to innovate in its ability to put forward a vision of the future is looking forward to him the citizens of this province, in this area that is, Are we the biggest question in front of the Union Party Are we past achievements? Are we the party of former struggle or party looking to the future and project the future? The correct answer to lead to the fate of the Union report and the subject also is on the other parties, not only the Union. Q - but the Union's probably more obvious to this conflict, you you mean the owner of this idea Aohma youth line so it was said that there is a conflict between the old guard in the Union and between the young generation represented by Barham Salih, this conflict now seems to still by or for the benefit ends at this stage or at this time as we speak, along with the old guard? Dr. Barham Salih: I do not want that the simplest issue in this way I will also tighten what is going on in Union put historical our leader Mam Jalal and his absence from the scene because of a disease that pain by and wish him recovery, we have great benefits and community Kurdish community change, citizens of Kurdish different today than it was 10 years ago, the party that wants to be the party of the future should adopt innovative projects The new structures and methods. Q - do you think you are able to read the new generation in Kurdistan ideas? Dr. Barham Salih: God, I am a believer relying on youth and a believer, too, the numbers speak as I told you on statistical data that were available to me 70% of the Kurdish community are under 30 years old , memorable Hola different expectations than previous generations, and this is normal in all societies, I'd say, and I repeat, can not be for us to rely on past achievements Yes cherish those achievements are not uncommon, but the Kurdish community is looking and requires formations is able to provide such a benefit Union, as well as other parties claim to cause These benefits, van we were able to who it will not be losers opinion be winners, and look at the history of political parties in the east or the west in that subject, there is a major historical parties have not been able to respond to the stage and change benefits, look to the PLO, to see the FLN, to see many, many historical parties, can not be invoked only pivot only to the past achievements, the future is scheduled. Q - perhaps this talk makes me ask before you Maichea that Dr. Barham Salih probably split and founded a new party? Dr. Barham Salih: Barham Salih did not bolt did not form a new party, I am working with my colleagues in the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK) to solve the problems. We are now in the process of discussion and debate seriously within the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK) and the section of this debate exists in the media, the nature of the Union, thus, also how to decide Union destiny and how we finish the serious solutions decide what to do, not only Barham, but many, many union cadres who are tired of this party and who are believed basic principles of the party, remind you Payam Patriotic Union of Kurdistan establishment and we were young motivated, Union attract thousands and thousands of new cadres and youth visions related to freedom and innovation and providing opportunities and equal opportunities citizens, Vbakana party dynamically based on adherence to these principles, but the power evil that we are not serious in responding to societal change benefits and aspirations of the people, the power will not benefit us. Q - Do you wait years conference of the Union? Dr. Barham Salih: certainly want the General Conference, the General Conference is the one who must settle things, but the General Conference must be achieved and will take place after the provision of a suitable ground, there are some problems in the current need to provide a suitable ground in order to be a legitimate conference invoke the opinion of members of the actors and real PUK not politicize directed towards contrary to the aspirations of the base Union and there is a big challenge ahead of us, in the past there was our leader Mam Jalal runs the daily affairs of the Union and with us and directs, in his absence, the ground must be available, and this land will be generated through a transitional reform measures to get to in a legitimate conference is far from any Qemomh or orientation contradicts the aspirations of our members. There are some dilemmas exist, we want to solve those dilemmas because the EU administration and the decision of the Union is an important issue has repercussions on the situation in Kurdistan and its repercussions on the situation in Baghdad, our indulgences or problematic about how to make decisions and this is probably the essence of the problem in the EU today, We hope that expires solutions lead to strengthening the cohesion of the Union and activate and strengthen its role in national decision of Kurdistan and the Iraqi decision ..

Q - I was with you in the election campaign when the party needs to be movement Barham Salih and Activity Barham Salih and have been created him a good political atmosphere, at least in Sulaymaniyah and the surrounding areas, you're talking to people about the opportunity in a fair and anti-corruption and succeeded in the Union and had a good voices in the piece then Is the party needs you at a time of weakness and Ibadk in time force? Dr. Barham Salih: This goes back Party, in 2009, we were together and Holiness was honored to Sulaymaniyah and you relay the result fact at that moment, there was a big question, and there is considerable skepticism Union and its role in the government and its program and partisanship and dominate the party on the joints of the state, came to promising election reform program we adopted on the basis of weakening the role of the party in The government and the empowerment of state citizens and equal opportunities and to otherwise, if it is due to the two years that I've been prime minister, I can say with confidence that I proceeded to implement many of these programs have failed in some of them, in the farewell speech ended when the government for, I have succeeded in this issues and we fail in these matters, because not that we can confront some of the strengths of the existing no doubt about it, The issue of reform is not an easy issue, but during that period promised by many of the reforms have succeeded in implementing some of them, but I be honest with myself and with the people, we do not succeed in the Department of them , this Mantmanah the current government and, God willing they will succeed in that, and I am one of those who call them on it.

Q - this on a personal level I'm asking on the overall level is still two major parties are dominant? Dr. Barham Salih: the last election produced a new political map for the first time since 1991 1992 when he formed the government formed a broadly representative government change movement that opposed the income bipartisan Islamists into the government entered what talk him about the dominance of the two parties to the extent of what he knew, and the income of the other parties, movement of change today, Minister of Finance and Minister of Peshmerga and the joints of the mission in the country, but both parties have their own history, full of history, Hmaan bipartisan bipartisan historic, bipartisan Leaderboard to process the struggle of the Kurdish situation, and their Almaazin and supporters just are not, issue of the dominance of the two parties on the political and government situations Kurdish did not come from a vacuum but the date is known, what happened during the last election, This opposition parties came strongly to not marginal to the new political map and this is what a gentleman, there is a change Mojtma can not be bipartisan and others can Ertkazhoa only on past achievements and glories of the past, people want free and dignified life, they want electricity want security they want Alasagrar want to tackle corruption and they want justice, check this Welcome, if you do not check that you are taking revenge in the elections and that the beauty of democracy and the electoral process.
