The motion
That this House congratulates the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) on its coherent response to
the coronavirus crisis which has been compounded by massive falls in oil prices and continuing
political crisis in the rest of Iraq; urges the UK Government and others to respond as generously
as possible to the KRG’s requests for assistance with medical supplies to tackle the virus; and
believes that the traditional resilience of the Kurdistani people will once again ensure they
weather these crises.
