And Iran. there are 3-4 Kurdish provinces in Iran. even though based on my own experiences the majority of Kurds in Iran consider themselves Iranian in first place. but obviously something like this will cause problems here as well. This referendum is one thing, being a real independent country is something else, specially when all of your neighbors are against you ! still a long way to go to have a Kurdistan country. I wish the best for them, but I'm not sure what's really the "best" for them but I don't think life will get easier for Iraqi Kurdistan people after this. I just hope it doesn't lead to any kind of war in the region. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heywoodu 13,901 Posted September 25, 2017 #1065 Share Posted September 25, 2017 I wonder why basically everyone is against an independent Kurdistan. I mean, if Turkey, Iran, Iraq, USA all basically agree on something, this something truly must be the worst idea ever, surely?

Iraq doesn't want to lose parts of the country. but for Iran and Turkey this is mostly for security concerns. One day the Iraqi Kurdistan will go after the Kurdish parts of Iran and Turkey and you know in this region, when people want something, they usually don't ask that "nicely". it won't be like Scotland and Catalonia, at least that's what they are afraid of, but who knows maybe it doesn't change anything. for example an independent Turkmenistan or Azerbaijan didn't cause any serious problem.
