Dispute in parliament brings down power-sharing in Iraqi Kurdistan

Kurdistan Region, Iraq ·

The Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK) announced its withdrawal from the Kurdistan Region's government, a day after the rival Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP) reopened parliament despite the PUK's boycott. Its leader threatened to appoint a separate leadership for the regional government if the KDP takes all the posts, which revives the prospect of two rival administrations.

Iraq's Kurdistan Region is an autonomous region in the north of the country, where the Kurdistan Democratic Party and the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan have long shared power in the regional government.
