PUK quits, eyes own rule
The Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK) announced on Thursday, November 5, 2026, that it was withdrawing from the Kurdistan Regional Government, and threatened to form a parallel administration, escalating its dispute with the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP) over power-sharing. The decision followed the October 2024 elections, in which the KDP won 39 seats and the PUK 23. Parliament convened for the first time after nearly two years of deadlock, with 52 of its 100 members present, and elected Vala Farid as its speaker. The impact of the withdrawal on plans to unify the Peshmerga forces remained unclear.
