The White House Middle East and North Africa Coordinator would visit the Kurdistan region.
Kurdistan Region President Advisor Dilshad Shahab told Kurdsat English that National Security Council Coordinator for the Middle East and North Africa Bret Mcgurk would visit the Kurdistan region and meet with the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) President to discuss several issues related to the Kurdistan Region, Iraq and the region.
The visiting schedule includes talks with the leadership of the Kurdistan Patriotic Union (PUK). Kurdish leaders and the White House coordinate were closely coordinated during the war on terrorism from 2014 to 2019.
Mcgurk is a diplomat with significant experience in Iraq, especially in the Kurdistan region, as he frequently met with Kurdish leaders in the past decade. He was the Special Presidential Envoy for the Global Coalition to Counter ISIL and retained his role under the Trump administration, but left office when Trump decided to withdraw US troops from Syria.
