Baghdad / Obelisk Al-Hadath: The resigned member of the Kurdistan Region Parliament, Abdul Sattar Majeed, revealed, on Monday, the reasons for his resignation with the representatives of the Kurdistan Justice Party.

Majeed said, in a statement followed by Al-Masalla, that “7 deputies from the Kurdistan Justice Party in the parliament of the Kurdistan region submitted their resignations today, as a result of the failure to hold elections for the parliament of the region as scheduled.”

He added, “The Justice Party believes that Parliament does not have a legitimacy as a result of not holding the elections, and also because of the failure to elect a new commission that would supervise the elections professionally and independently.”

Earlier in the day, 7 members of the Kurdistan Parliament announced their resignation in protest of the lack of agreement to hold elections for the region’s parliament as scheduled.
