PUK Exit Hints Rival Rule
The Patriotic Union of Kurdistan announced on Thursday, November 5, 2026, that it was withdrawing from the Kurdistan Regional Government of Iraq and threatened to form a parallel administration, escalating its dispute with the Kurdistan Democratic Party over power-sharing. The decision came after the formation of a new government had stalled since the October 2024 elections, in which the KDP won 39 seats and the PUK 23. The PUK also boycotted a parliamentary session attended by 52 of the 100 members, during which Vala Farid was elected speaker. The impact of the withdrawal on plans to unify the Peshmerga forces remained unclear.
