Shaswar Abdulwahid Qadir Meets Bafel Talabani “We want to change this way of governance and reform the system of governance,” Shaswar Abdulwahid said during a joint press conference. Shaswar Abdulwahid Qadir, leader of the New Generation Movement, and Bafel Talabani, leader of the PUK, held a joint press conference following their meeting. Shaswar Abdulwahid stated, “We have not asked for any political or personal gains. This agreement is aimed at better governance, not at opposing anyone.” He added, “If our agreement with the PUK succeeds, we will restore the balance of power, and the KDP will not be able to rule the region alone until the end.” Shaswar Abdulwahid emphasized that, except for two years, the government has almost always been in the hands of the KDP. He noted that the prime ministership and seven key positions—among the most important posts in the region’s governance—have been controlled by the KDP. “We want to change this method of governance and reform the governing system,” he said.“If we all—especially the PUK and the KDP—do not cooperate, we may lose everything we have,” he warned. For his part, Bafel Talabani said, “I welcome the initiative of Shaswar Abdulwahid. This effort is not meant to oppose anyone, but to improve the living conditions of the people.” He added, “We will visit all political parties. Those who choose not to join this agreement are effectively willing to remain in the current situation.”He concluded by saying, “We have no agreement with the KDP

In the name of Allah Dear citizens, Despite the arrest of the leader of our movement, and despite all the pressure from the authorities and the opposition, as well as the targeting of the New Generation Movement as a brave and principled opposition force that refused to fall under the control and shadow of the authorities, we would like to express our gratitude for the votes and trust of the citizens and all the volunteers of the New Generation Movement.Rest assured that no matter how many seats we win and wherever we are, we will stand with the people. We congratulate the winning forces and hope that they will share the pain and wounds of the people. Although the election results did not meet our expectations, the two ruling parties arrested the leader of our movement and opposed the plan of the New Generation Movement as a courageous opposition both in Baghdad and the Kurdistan Region.It has become clear that the authorities fear only this kind of opposition presented by the New Generation Movement. We are certain that had they not arrested the leader of the New Generation Movement, the authorities would never have achieved this result or implemented this plan. The important point we want to emphasize is that the New Generation Movement will continue with the same idea and principles of defending the people, and we will not compromise on any of the values we believe in and work for to ensure the welfare of the people. Despite everything, we still believe that elections and the mass participation of dissatisfied and divided citizens are the best way to bring change, apply pressure on the authorities, and improve people’s lives. Finally, as an opposition force, we are confident that no force or individual will be oppressed, and we will continue to work tirelessly to reach the highest levels of power.

The betrayal of the regime was expected for us and the Kurdish people, but the court decision shocked us and the people, because the midnight raid on Mr. Shaswar's house by a masked force made it clear that the authorities do not care about rules or justice. What shocked us and everyone else was the court's decision to issue such a sentence without any evidence or witnesses in the case. We reiterate that we will continue the same path and vision of Mr. Shaswar, and we will be more vigorous than ever in opposing this plundering and gangster regime of the PUK and KDP. We will not overlook any gangster behavior. We tell the Talabani and Barzani families that the arrest of Shaswar Abdulwahid will make the New Generation Movement and its leader more popular among the people. We have already made all preparations for the Iraqi parliamentary elections to be held on November 11 this year, an election in which we are sure the people will punish this illegitimate and gangster regime of the PUK and KDP.

The New Generation Movement has many supporters, and Talabani’s sons may not succeed, the newspaper said. Jalal Talabani’s sons want to impose political and security control over Sulaimanyah province, but it is suspected that they will not succeed because the New Generation Movement has a large following and 24 seats in parliament. The newspaper said the political conflict has been given a legal path. The two sons of the late President Jalal Talabani are trying to impose political and security control over Sulaimanyah province and keep it as a dominant area for their party after the arrest of Shaswar Abdulwahid Qadir. Kurdish sources doubt the late president’s sons can achieve this, especially since Shaswar Abdulwahid has many supporters, with nine seats in the Iraqi parliament and 15 of the 100 seats in the Kurdistan parliament, the newspaper reported. The newspaper said the face of the political conflict has been given a legal path.

Dear Brothers and Sisters, The primary cause for the exodus of some of our citizens is the tyranny of this wicked and oppressive regime, which has driven some of our loved ones to the path of death and forced them to leave their homeland after 33 years of suffering. In such circumstances, the future remains uncertain for asylum seekers. Beloved Citizens, Our hearts are with you, and we feel your pain deeply. Our message to all is that light will prevail, and darkness will be dispelled. The darkness of this regime is pervasive, but the time has come for the light to shine through. Dear Compatriots, you who remain in the country,There are only a few months until the regional elections. Be patient and channel your anger and resentment towards Election Day. Seek justice against this tyrannical government for past 33 years of oppression. Let us all become part of the hope and change, so that this catastrophic tragedy never repeats and the hearts of our loved ones are no longer burdened. Together, we can overthrow this malevolent regime and end all injustice and oppression. The New Generation Movement19/6/2024

“We remain committed to resolving the wage earners’ issue.&nbsp;Shaswar Abdul Wahid, President of the New Generation Movement, expresses disappointment in the KDP and PUK for once again opposing the wage earners, demonstrating their role in creating problems for the people of the Kurdistan Region rather than being part of the solution. Gratitude is extended to the New Generation Fraction in Baghdad for their efforts to address the salary concerns of the region’s wage earners. Thanks are also extended to all factions that have aligned with the New Generation and supported wage earners. Our efforts will persist until this issue is resolved, ensuring that monthly wage earners in the region receive their salaries promptly, just like in other parts of Iraq.”

“We remain committed to resolving the wage earners’ issue. 

Shaswar Abdul Wahid, the head of the New Generation Movement, stated, ‘From here, we can do nothing but condemn the inhuman attack on Gaza’s hospital.&nbsp;It’s an immoral act and far from complying with the laws of war.“The entire international community must work to immediately stop these inhuman wars and provide humanitarian aid to Gaza.’”

“We condemn the inhuman attack on the Gaza hospital.

After three months without salary distribution, despite the authority holding hundreds of billions of dinars, and remaining silent about the basic rights of teachers and employees, this silence is a consistent characteristic of this authority, and it comes as no surprise.The simplest rights, such as paying teachers and employees, are being ignored by the authority, which appears blind and deaf to these needs.We call on all teachers and employees to support each other, and we stand with you.The New Generation MovementSeptember 30, 2023”

“We support teachers and all other classes in their demand for their legitimate and basic rights.

Dear citizens, young people, women, and girls of the country, brave boys, and brave men in Kurdistan, everyone living in Kurdistan At this moment, when our region is trapped by the failed rule of the two ruling parties, there is an important historical opportunity for all of us to turn the Kurdistan Parliament elections into a chance to seek revenge against all the harm they are causing to the people of Kurdistan.&nbsp;This marks the first election in the past 32 years and comes after several postponements. It is also the first election that the entire international community is observing, and the Iraqi Election Commission is overseeing. The New Generation Movement, which considers itself the alternative to this traditional and failed power in the region and aims to heal the country, encourages you to approach the renewal&nbsp;voting cards with enthusiasm and joy, especially the young people who are voting for the first time. We are all aware that this is the last opportunity for the people of the Kurdistan Region to escape the difficult situation they living inside.&nbsp;We can transform the ballot boxes into a means of delivering a significant blow to the power that poses a threat to the present and future of the Region. As the New Generation Movement، which in recent years has provided in practice، we will not lose your trust and we have served what we have achieved، so we are very considering that you will go back to get your cards، because you are aware that the authorities، media، and their shadows are cooling the divided and dissatisfied people from participating in the vote، and they are asking their groups to take back their cards to try to stay in power longer. and punish more people. In recent years, some beloved individuals in Kurdistan attempted to boycott and abstain from voting. Unfortunately, the outcome of this boycott was a reinforcement of the power, increased taxes, disappointments of university graduates and institutes, and heightened pressure on businessmen, employees, young people, and all sectors of society.We are at the new generation movement، the force that with the support of God and your voice will change the present and future of this country، so we ask that you and your people، the youth and the new generation، go with great passion and great hope to get the voting cards and be ready for the next parliamentary elections in Kurdistan.&nbsp; New Generation MovementAugust 13, 2023

A new generation statement

Masrour Barzani's actions regarding the arrest، kidnapping and punishment of activists and citizens of Kurdistan، the re-sentencing of the activist Sherwan Sherwani، marks the end of the rule of the family and the pirates of Kurdistan، and if they done these kind of actions for once or twice and got away with it, then know they cannot keep doing these actions and get away with it.This anti-democratic and self-imposed behavior of the KDP is a dangerous signal for the future of freedom and democracy in the Kurdistan Region، and it is the duty of all classes، scholars and political parties to strongly oppose it، as these behaviors would be an incentive to take that idiology of ruling that is only based on imprisoning the brave free voices.The movement of the new generation21/7/2023
