  • Speech by H.E. Hemin Hawrami, Deputy Speaker of Kurdistan Parliament to US Chamber of Commerce Delegation at Divan Hotel, Erbi
    Speech by H.E. Hemin Hawrami, Deputy Speaker of Kurdistan Parliament to US Chamber of Commerce Delegation at Divan Hotel, Erbil, Kurdistan Region, Iraq on 24th June 2019, 12 noon Ladies and gentlemen, distinguished guests, it’s my pleasure to welcome you to Kurdistan. Thank you for taking the time to visit our Region, get to know our people, our companies and our institutions, and see for yourselves the opportunities available here. It sends an important message when the US Chamber, the largest business organization in the world with a very strong voice in Washington, visits the Kurdistan Region. Thank you also to the KRG US Representation under the leadership of Bayan Sami Abdul Rahman and her team, for organizing your important visit. Kurdistan Region is entering a new era of hope and prosperity, after five years of crisis. We have come out of the other side of the multiple shocks of the oil price crash, the war against ISIS, massive budget cuts by the Iraqi government, and the influx of 1.8 million refugees and internally displaced persons. It has been extremely tough, but we are a resilient nation. We recovered. The oil price improved, our brave Peshmerga forces defeated ISIS with the help of our allies led by the US, and we reached an agreement with Iraq for the 2019 budget to separate public servant salaries from any other disputes we have. Nevertheless, the crisis was an opportunity for us to re-evaluate and learn from our shortcomings. The crisis taught us that our government and our economy need reform, that we need to diversify our economy away from reliance on oil, and strengthen the private sector.

    Speech of Hemin Hawrami, Foreign Relations Office, Kurdistan Democratic Party, Iraq Meeting of the Council of the Socialist International United Nations, New York, 6 and 7 July 2015 INTRODUCTION: Your Excellencies, fellow delegates, ladies and gentlemen, Thank you for the invitation to attend the Meeting of the Council of the Socialist International and the opportunity to discuss a crucial topic; security, both as it pertains to the Kurdistan Region and the international community at large. Let me start by informing you all that the situation in the region, meaning the Kurdistan Region, Iraq itself and Syria is dire. I am honored to come before you to enhance your knowledge about the current situation. His Excellency, President Masoud Barzani sends his best regards and greetings to SI members and all the participants. At this very moment His Excellency, President Barzani is in one of the military front near Mosul. PART 1: Today, we meet at a time of great challenge and consequence to international peace and security. In four days, it will be thirteen months since the most heinous terrorist organization took control of large portions of land, especially Mosul and that continues to be held under their command. Ladies and gentlemen as you might have heard, this vicious organization is known as the Islamic State in Iraq and Levant (ISIL), ISIS, or the Islamic State. Just to shortly recap for those of you that have not been informed, in a matter of days after the fall of Mosul, hundreds of thousands of families fled to the Iraqi Kurdistan Region, creating a humanitarian crisis and a burden on the Region because of limited resources.

Thank you for the invitation to attend the Socialist International Council Meeting and the oppor- tunity to discuss “Strengthening the Political and Humanitarian Responses to Current In- ternational Crisis.” As you might be aware, today, we have several international challenges. First, the threat of ISIS to international peace and stability. Second, a humanitarian crisis, involving refugees and IDPs from the disorder in the MENA region. I am honored to come before you to enhance your knowledge about some of the challenges fac- ing the Kurdistan region as well as the greater Middle East. Part 1: Background of the crisis and achievements Ladies and gentlemen, the situation in the Kurdistan region, in Iraq and in Syria is critical and of high priority. Currently, the Kurdish Forces, known as the Peshmerga, are battling the deadliest known terrorist organization on behalf of the free world. They are on the battlefield, fighting ISIS as we speak, with support from the anti-ISIS Coalition Forces. At this point, I would like to provide you with an update on the achievements in this war against terror. Kurdistan as a region plays a crucial role in facing global threat which is manifested in ISIS. Our Peshmerga with the help of the anti-ISIS Coalition Forces have achieved great victory.

  • Accuracy, Independence, Impartiality
    Reuters Institute Fellowship Paper University of Oxford ACCURACY, INDEPENDENCE, AND IMPARTIALITY: How legacy media and digital natives approach standards in the digital age by Kellie Riordan Trinity Term 2014 Sponsor: Australian Broadcasting Corporation 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In the digital age, one of the most complex challenges for media outlets is how to re- shape the editorial responsibilities of journalism itself. Which journalistic standards, many devised last century, still fit in the digital age? And which standards form the basis of a new type of journalism being pioneered by hybrid news sites that have come of age in the digital era? This paper focuses on the key editorial standards of accuracy, independence, and impartiality, and examines how these three principles are approached in the digital era. The paper then concentrates on three legacy organisations (the Guardian, the New York Times, and the BBC) and three digital outlets (Quartz, BuzzFeed, and Vice News) and the measures each outlet takes to uphold editorial integrity. Based on interviews with a wide range of industry experts, scholars and representatives of both traditional and new media, the paper asks two key questions: what can legacy organisations with hundreds of years of history learn from how digital natives approach standards? Which traditional journalistic standards held by legacy organisations should be more firmly adopted by newcomers? Finally, this paper argues a third form of journalism is emerging; one that combines the best of legacy standards with the new approaches of digital natives. Such a hybrid form requires a more streamlined, contemporary set of editorial standards that fit the internet era.
