Suleiman Ali Khan, a Kurdish journalist in the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG), who is also the editor of a Kurdish online magazine, says: \u201cWe have no democracy nor development here. The KRG does not pay attention to the people\u2019s demands. Trhis is while in the developed countries, the authorities care more about human beings than anything else. “<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“In the Kurdistan Region, people are\nseen only during the election period and the war. But in developed countries,\nwe see that the government thinks about the growth and development of the\npeople every day and guarantees their future. Here, the people are born as\nindebted and Prisoners. Prisoners of the special rules of the individual\ninterests of the rulers.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“We do not also have the right to use\nthe word ‘progress’ because it cannot be used as an adjective for the situation\nin the Kurdistan Region. What we see is debt, regression and not the progress.\nSo it is not right to use the word democracy for the Kurdistan Region,” he\nsaid. “The simplest principles of democracy are not seen in it. People do\nnot have the slightest right to protest for their own fate.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“We must not forget that sometimes there\nare laws better than the best democracies, but they are never enforced,”\nthe Kurdish journalist concludes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“The solution is not a reform project, but a smart and\nexperienced leader who seeks to enforce democracy and the advancement of the\npeople with the rule of law,” he said, referring to Masrour Barzani’s\n“reform project.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
