Five years in office: Nechirvan Barzani's theory of moderation, 13 June
Five years in office: Nechirvan Barzani's theory of moderation
This article was originally written in Arabic by Ali Hussein Feyli
Shafaq News/ During Nechirvan Barzani's inauguration as President of the Kurdistan Region in 2019, the media pondered a singular question: Could Barzani, with his pragmatic and centrist stance, armed with three decades of political experience, effectively navigate the internal and external relations of Iraq's Kurdistan Region?
While initially perceived as a catalyst for repairing strained ties post the September 25, 2017 referendum, the reality proved the challenges facing Barzani to be far more complex.
In the volatile landscape of the Middle East, where challenges loom large, three areas stand out: the fragility of Kurdish internal unity, recurring disputes between Erbil and Baghdad, and the broader regional and global challenges.
Barzani's moderate leadership has been commended for its judicious approach, with intellectual and political stakeholders within Kurdistan prioritizing pragmatism in decision-making. After five years of turmoil, Kurdish factions have finally embraced a phase of "moderation."
As the fifth anniversary of Nechirvan Barzani's presidency approaches, the influence of radical inclinations in both domestic and foreign policy in the Kurdistan Region has historically marginalized moderation as a viable approach. However, recent efforts to mobilize moderate factions to mitigate internal tensions, a strategy long advocated by Barzani, have garnered significant support across political and social spectra.
In the current landscape, Barzani has leveraged his political acumen to advocate for unity and solidarity in regional discussions. Despite initial hesitancy from some quarters in the Kurdistan Parliament, there is now a growing recognition of the necessity to uphold political equilibrium, leading to softened stances.
This shift towards moderation is seen as a cornerstone of Barzani's political ethos and daily governance strategies. Meanwhile, ordinary citizens in the Region continue to press for improvements in living standards and societal harmony, as well as enhanced local and regional cooperation to address longstanding issues between Erbil and Baghdad.
Given the Region's deeply entrenched history of political violence, terms such as interaction, tolerance, restraint, patience, and respect for human rights cannot be overlooked.
In the context of Kurdistan's political landscape, violence, and politics often appear as two sides of the same coin. In this regard, the President has intensified efforts to strike a balance between factions and foster consensus on balanced plans and policies. He has strived to solidify public solidarity and social affairs with minimal damage while managing tensions between political and social forces.
Barzani openly acknowledges that Iraq is not just a political entity but also comprises diverse artistic, economic, humanitarian, and social strata. The governance system in Baghdad cannot be likened to the Ba'athist regime, and the majority of citizens across Iraq share similar concerns to those in the Kurdistan Region.
President Nechirvan Barzani does not shy away from the fact that Kurdistan faces a long list of missed opportunities. Still, he is confident that setting goals requires a fundamental understanding of all possibilities to prevent plans from deviating practically from their intended path and causing disillusionment. In essence, the crucial and necessary point to highlight is the reality of the Region, which is something its adversaries do not desire.
In today's world, moderation and centrism hold a unique perspective on people's efficiency across all fields. Therefore, the President of the Kurdistan Region insists that Kurdistan's foreign policy today does not require noise and clamor. It has experimented with many theories and actions, and it is necessary to evaluate the results of these methods.
President Barzani does not hide the fact that the unity and sustainability of moderation in the current Kurdish political movement face numerous obstacles and challenges. Among the most significant is the political imbalance evident in the relationship between authority and society, as well as among political factions themselves. According to values and ethics, the primary question is: What is the impact of these challenges on the political stability of the Region?
Based on the political characteristics of Barzani's moderation, we can discern from the texts and contents of his statements a precise and deep-seated perspective on neighboring countries and the geopolitical potential of Kurdistan, as well as the internal situation. Understanding the realistic developments in the region, we observe that the world around us is different, and the search for external factors for the current situation in Kurdistan is not limited to a single political dimension.
However, they can be trusted from the outset because they meet two extremely challenging conditions: first, responsibility, and second, an attempt to change the current situation.

World Bank predicts modest economic growth for MENA in 2024, 2025, 13 June
World Bank predicts modest economic growth for MENA in 2024, 2025
Shafaq News/ The World Bank predicts a 2.8% growth rate in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region in 2024, rising to 4.2% by 2025.
This predicted gain is linked to a gradual increase in oil output and stronger economic activity beginning in the fourth quarter of 2024.
The 2024 predictions are lower than those made in January, reflecting the impact of protracted oil production cuts and continued regional conflicts, according to the most recent edition of the World Bank's Global Economic Prospects report.
Non-oil activities are predicted to sustain growth in Saudi Arabia in 2024, followed by a gradual restoration of oil activity in 2025.
For oil-exporting countries outside the Gulf Cooperation Council, the anticipated rebound in the oil sector in 2025 is expected to boost growth in Algeria and Iraq.
Oil-importing countries' growth is expected to accelerate to 2.9% in 2024, followed by a 4% annual growth rate in 2025-2026.
Egypt's growth is expected to accelerate as a result of increasing investment, which will be aided in part by the large contract with UAE.
Jordan's growth rate is expected to stay constant, however tourism-related industries may suffer short-term hurdles.
Tunisia's growth is predicted to rebound, while Djibouti and Morocco's economies are expected to contract in 2024.
The economy of the West Bank and Gaza is expected to fall by at least 6.5%, with a potential contraction of up to 9.4% in 2024.
Syria and Yemen's prognosis remains grim and uncertain due to protracted hostilities, domestic unrest, and Red Sea tensions.
SUMMARY OF HELPFUL CONVERSATIONS FROM GINGER TELEGRAM ROOM, 13 JUNE
π’ Super helpful conversation with one of my besties. The Event π₯ππ₯ππ₯
π’ Sweetpea, Liberty Lounger Extraordinaire: Yes friend… Yes!! I so appreciate you! I’m very hopeful that this will be super soon but I’m in full agreement with you . And these markers really could all go within a very short time of one another . It seems the banking side is all systems go … now we wait on the political… and spiritual . God is doing a great thing π₯π₯π₯π₯π₯π₯ππππππ
π’ Ginger: Yes! Yes!! Yes!!! Friendly reminder -- do you recall when the Celestial Alliance explained to us that WHEN critical phase was reached, it would happen super fast. Literally - Boom, Boom, Boom π₯π₯π₯ - and done.
And another reminder. Biden does NOT have to "be gone" days or weeks before the Camper Event. That tired narrative is fake news. He could honestly be taken out hours before The Event or minutes to hours immediately after. He could literally be hauled off, eliminated - or whatever their exit-stage-left excuse is gonna be WHILE y'all are making your redemption appointments. We were told to tell you - "Do Not Blink, because you might miss something! πππ" It'll happen that fast. Be ready for it.
Hope this helps.
π To learn more, listen to Chronicles of an Ambassador, Part 6. Pretty sure we covered this conversation there. ππ

Meaningful conversation in GLL Chat regarding incoming "Scare Event". Meri17, Liberty Lounger Extraordinaire sets the stage: 6.7.24 π₯ππ₯⬇️
π’Meri: Scare event appears to finally be incoming.
We’ve said on many occasions that most won’t recognize it when it starts and this is seriously freaking people out.
If you look around, many systems are having issues today, from internet and cell service to delivery services and flights.
Things do appear to be in motion or very closeπππ
π’Kelli: BIG US Bank issue right now. AI has taken over the bank by internally overwriting internal loops and has locked out all permissions for anyone to unlock. Now they are afraid that money transfers are going to carry the AI to other banks like a virus.
One of our friends has a wife who is high up in US Bank. They took all their money out this morning and everybody is being asked not to do electronic transfers of funds.
π¨ Another story caught our attention:
π’TonyaK: My husband is at the bank now. His payroll check and others from the EACS District are still in a pending status.
The payroll is always deposited on Thursday. They are not wanting to release his money. He also has a huge check that was deposited nearly two weeks ago from the sale of a house and they show the money in his account but are refusing to release it. Something is going on.
