Dr. Ismail's condolence letter said:

To Ms. Ann Clwyd’s Family,
It is with huge sadness that I write to you to express my sincere condolences on behalf of President Jalal Talabani Foundation for the passing away of Ann Clwyd, Former Labor Party MP.

Ms. Ann was a courageous, fearless, principled political campaigner, she was the best friend of the Kurdish People who advocated most of her life standing up against the brutal repression of the Kurdish people in Iraq during the tough times, she supported and campaigned the removal of Saddam Hussein. She was the best and most furious defender of human rights, was a trailblazer for women across the world. Her work over so many years for women's rights, international justice and peace will be remembered. Her friendship with President Jalal Talabani was outstanding as both were sharing their thoughts and were very close on the political events in Iraq and Kurdistan.

By losing such a figure, the Kurdish people have lost its best and sincere friend whom will be remembered forever and her advocacy for this nation will never be forgotten. 

At this hour of difficulty, we kindly ask your acceptance of our sincere condolence and may Almighty rest her peacefully in Heaven.

With sincere sympathy,

Ambassador Dr. Muhammad Sabir Ismail
President of President Jalal Talabani Foundation
