In a tweet she shared earlier today, the head of "Erada" (Will) Movement, Hanan al-Fatlawi, said, "despite my disagreement with some of the Kurdistan Democratic Party policies, assigning ladies to as the rapporteur of the bloc, spokesperson to the bloc, and spokesperson to Barzani (the president of the party Masoud Barzani) is admirable."

"Three ladies from three different religions... Hopefully other parties follow their lead," she added.
