I extend my heartfelt sympathies to the family, relatives, and friends of the late Saleh al-Qalab, a distinguished writer and journalist, and Jordan’s former Minister of Culture. May his soul rest in peace and may God grant strength and patience to the bereaved.

Saleh al-Qalab holds a special place in the hearts of the people of Kurdistan, as a loyal friend who consistently supported and defended their rights. The people of Kurdistan will forever remember him, with great respect and appreciation, for his unwavering stance. May God grant him eternal peace.

Nechirvan Barzani
President of the Kurdistan Region
