"You did a great job in developing Erbil, and I know how much effort you have put in this regard", he said, addressing KRG.

"I say to Iran that targeting another country with missiles is unacceptable, and I wish it does not occur again", he added.

For his part, Dizayee said that Mr. Asselborn has always focused on supporting IDPs and the Yazidi community, which Luxembourg financially and morally supported.
