On the occasion of the Yazidi New Year, we extend our sincere congratulations and best wishes to the Yazidi community in Iraq and around the world. We pray that this occasion brings blessing and prosperity, and marks the beginning of a year filled with security, stability, and progress—one that fulfills the aspirations of all Iraqis for a brighter future.
This occasion represents an authentic cultural and civilizational heritage that reflects the rich diversity of Iraqi society. Such diversity should be harnessed to strengthen peaceful coexistence and reinforce the values of citizenship and social cohesion among all components of society. This, in turn, supports the foundations of building a just state that preserves the dignity of its people and guarantees their rights on the basis of equality and fairness.
