Masrour Barzani, Prime Minister of Iraq's Kurdistan Regional Government, is visiting Washington, highlighting the Kurdish people's loyalty and their strategic importance in countering Iranian influence. Despite their significant contributions to regional stability and their fight against jihadist groups, the Kurds remain without a true homeland. Their aspirations for autonomy resonate with U.S. interests, given their proven track record as allies. The KRG's natural resources, including vast oil reserves, position them for economic self-sufficiency, yet political constraints hamper full potential realization.
Kurdish fighters have consistently battled America's worst enemies - jihadist groups like ISIS, al Qaeda and others- sparing American blood and treasure.
Kurdish ambitions for greater autonomy are not only righteous, they align with America's own critical interests.
