Bafel Jalal Talabani conveyed a message on the occasion of the International Mother Language Day, stating "Our language is our identity."

"Our language is our identity, and we must protect it. The destruction of our language means the destruction of our nation, a nation that has struggled throughout history and sacrificed for freedom and independence." Bafel Talabani said.

He added, "It is the duty of all of us, to improve and expand the limits of its use."
