We strongly condemn the attack on our friend and valued Kurdish partner, Kurdistan Region Prime Minister Masrour Barzani, and his office in Erbil.

Such aggression against our trusted Kurdish allies is unacceptable and a direct threat to regional stability.

We will not condone or tolerate these hostilities. We fully support Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi’s leadership in restoring Iraq’s full sovereignty and ensuring all weapons and security forces remain under the authority of the Iraqi state.

In three to six months—a Ukrainian ballistic missile will hit Russia.

The next stage of this war will be robots and drones fighting other autonomous robots and drones.

This is an inevitable future.

Elon Musk is probably the most important technological person and entrepreneur in the whole world for our country.

After Elon Musk and SpaceX disabled Starlink for Russians which were illegally used on the territory of our country, it saved our air defense, our aviation, and, in general, saved thousands of lives of our civilians.

We are constantly in communication.

2-3 years ago, our partners didn’t understand the new reality.

They asked us why we were betting on drones, why we invested a lot in these directions, and they didn’t believe that the future belongs to drones and that the war is the drone.

But today, I can say that all our key partners really understand that the situation is different, and the future belongs to drones and robotic technologies.
