Abstract
Iraq has been the focus of Western countries, and the Iraqi Kurdish issue in West Asia is a major challenge, although the West and the United States wanted Kurdistan to remain under the Iraqi government, and Western countries use the Kurdish issue and the Iraqi crisis as leverage.
The current class structure, institutional framework, and rent-seeking economy of Iraqi Kurdistan have their roots in the 1990s, when Kurdish forces gained permanent control of the region. The new ruling class that emerged in that decade had a profoundly extractive character and exercised its power over a strategy of seizing public resources pursued through the control of political institutions and security forces.
In September 2017, the Iraqi Kurdistan Regional Government held a referendum on independence, despite the possibility of retaliation. The role that nationalism has played in maintaining the power structures of the region is prominent. Ethnic secession was the result of the will and agreement of the Iraqis themselves, Barzani who said that holding a referendum does not mean independence and is only in the hands of politicians to ask for independence with the help of the people of this geographical area to ask for independence. This is what were the positions of regional and international countries regarding the 2017 Kurdish referendum?
