ERBIL — Iraqi Parliament Speaker Mohammed al-Halbousi on Monday arrived in Erbil where he is expected to meet with top Kurdish officials.

Halbousi was received by Kurdistan Deputy Parliament Speaker Hemin Hawrami and other Kurdish officials at the Erbil International Airport.

His visit to Erbil comes ahead of the Iraqi parliamentary election which is scheduled for 10th October this year.

Last week, Erbil hosted the Iraqi president, Barham Salih, for a similar agenda.
