The Federal Court has declared the extension of the Kurdistan Parliament unconstitutional
- All laws issued after 6/11/2022 will be cancelled
- The resignation and swearing-in of parliamentarians shall be cancelled
- The reactivation meeting of the commission will be cancelled
Yousef Mohammed Sadiq, former speaker of the Kurdistan Parliament, one of the plaintiffs in the case of extending the term of the Kurdistan Parliament in the Federal Court told Draw Media:
The Federal Court has quashed the law extending the term of the fifth session of parliament.
That is, since 6/11/2022, the Kurdistan Parliament has lost its legitimacy.
All laws passed in the Kurdistan Parliament after 6/11/2022 will be canceled, including the resignation and swearing in of MPs and the enactment of laws even the meeting of the 22nd of this month and the reactivation of the Kurdistan High Election Commission.
After much effort, we are pleased that the Federal Court issued this decision. We hope that this will lead to the end of the extension of parliament in the Kurdistan Region. We hope that the elections will be held in a clean manner in Kurdistan.
