On Thursday, Feb. 17, 2022, U.S. Ambassador to Iraq Matthew Tueller and U.S. Consul General Robert Palladino visited the Amna Suraka museum in Sulaymaniyah, which was a place of torturing and oppressing Kurdish people during the Ba'athist regime, and now it’s a national museum.

After visiting the museum and seeing the suffering of the Kurdish people in the past, the U.S. ambassador to Iraq said, “It’s a deeply impactful reminder of the tyranny and oppression that the Kurdish and the Iraqi people suffered”.

U.S. Ambassador to Iraq Matthew Tueller also said, “We committed to stand with those who want to ensure that future generations never again see the return of this type of tyranny and oppression.”
