The Minister of Peshmerga, Shorsh Ismael, thanked the Dutch authorities for their precious help. The Dutch Consul General stated that the Dutch civil and military consultants are glad to join German and British colleagues in helping implement the reform of the KRG military.

Furthermore, the Minister of Peshmerga met with consultants from the Coalition’s Joint Military Cooperation Team, consisting of Colonel Calito and Lieutenant-Colonel Stephen.
