Keir Starmer, who has been the leader of the Labour Party since April 2020, secured a victory in the recent election, stepping into the role of UK Prime Minister. Before his leadership of the Labour Party, Starmer served as the Shadow Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union in Jeremy Corbyn's Shadow Cabinet. His ascent to the premiership is seen as a significant shift in UK politics, with many anticipating new policies and directions for the country under his leadership.
PM Barzani's congratulatory message highlights the importance of the relationship between Kurdistan and the United Kingdom, signaling a continued collaboration during Starmer's tenure as Prime Minister. This message underscores the strong partnership and mutual interests shared by both regions.
