Salar Mahmoud, Head of the Foreign Relations Central Board of the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK), has been received at the Norwegian Parliament in Oslo by Marie Sneve Martinussen, leader of the Norwegian Red Party (Rødt), alongside several members of parliament. The discussions focused on strengthening cooperation with the Kurdish diaspora and exploring mechanisms for closer joint engagement.

The meeting was also attended by Red Party MPs Bjørnar Moxnes and Seher Aydar. Talks centred on coordination between the Kurdish diaspora in Norway and the Norwegian Parliament, as well as avenues for enhanced political and community cooperation.

During the discussions, Mahmoud expressed his appreciation to the Norwegian parliamentarians for their role in the recognition of the Halabja genocide by the Norwegian Parliament in 2011, describing it as an important step in acknowledging historical injustices against the Kurdish people.

In a separate meeting held at the Norwegian Parliament, Mahmoud met Mani Hussaini, a Kurdish-born Member of Parliament and Chair of the Energy Committee for the governing Labour Party. The meeting focused on mechanisms for strengthening cooperation, particularly regarding the political participation and representation of the Kurdish diaspora in Norway.

Mahmoud also expressed satisfaction with continued cooperation within the framework of the Socialist International, highlighting shared values and ongoing political dialogue between the parties involved.
