Salahaddin Provincial Council Recognizes Turkish as an Official Language for Communication

Salahaddin Provincial Council member Atif Al-Najjar announced on Wednesday that the council has received official approval to include Turkish as one of its official languages for communication, in accordance with the Iraqi Constitution.

In his statement, Al-Najjar emphasized that Turkmens represent the second-largest community in the province, stating: “Turkmens have the right to use their language in official correspondence. Therefore, we submitted an official request to the Selahaddin Council Presidency to include the Turkish language in official communications.” He also highlighted the crucial role of the Turkmen community in ensuring security and stability in the province, as well as their sacrifices during the struggle for liberation.

Referring to Article 4 of the Iraqi Constitution, adopted in 2005, Al-Najjar stated: “The Constitution guarantees the right of all Iraqis to educate their children in their native language.” He confirmed that the issue had been formally addressed, and that the council received the necessary approval for using Turkish alongside Arabic and other recognized languages in official council correspondences.

Al-Najjar further noted that the decision became effective following the completion of all formal approval processes, as part of the Salahaddin Provincial Council’s policy to support the province’s diverse communities.

Turkmens are the second-largest ethnic group in Selahaddin province and the third-largest in Iraq. They are predominantly concentrated in areas such as Tuz Khurmatu and several other regions within the province.
