Sweden - Kurdistan
I am, as a Kurd from the beautiful country Sweden, very proud to present this blog. I will try my best to write as much as possible about Swedish-Kurdish friendship.
In south Kurdistan (Iraq), Sweden is a well known country. The Kurdish population in Sweden is estimated to be over 50.000 and many of the Kurds have returned to their motherland after the Iraq-war officially ended.
We can find Swedish schools in Duhok, Swedish flags in Hewler, statue of the former Swedish prime minister Olof Palme in Suleymani and even a Swedish village outside Hewler.
We can find Swedish institutes and centres in all parts of Kurdistan.
We could write thousands of pages about this subject, if I have the time... I will write them for you!
