Among the most important issues that were discussed during the conference were Iraqi Christians under the article and the impact on their migration in the disputed areas and Yezidi areas, and Turkish intervention in the light of future ambitions.
The vision of the federal government and neighboring countries with regard to the article was also discussed, as was how the Filaman movement can play a role in Iraq for the benefit of the Kurds.
Hawrami stressed the importance of article 140, adding that “the Baghdad government is behind delaying its implementation”.
