"Kurdish friends should be vigilant against false-flag ploys to sow discord between neighbors," he said in a post on X. "We protected our Kurdish friends against Saddam and DAESH, and we're thankful for security they've provided on our border." Nothing justifies the reckless attack on PM Barzani's office. Kurdish friends should be vigilant against false-flag ploys to sow discord between neighbors. We protected our Kurdish friends against Saddam and DAESH, and we're thankful for security they've provided on our border. — Seyed Abbas Araghchi (@araghchi) August 17, 2026
