About this person
Born in August 1944, Abdul Latif Rashid spent years as a spokesperson for the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan in the United Kingdom before returning to post-invasion Iraq. In September 2003 he became Minister of Water Resources under the interim government, a role he kept through the transitional government and then under Nouri al-Maliki until December 2010 - managing irrigation, hydropower, flood control, and the delicate work of restoring the country's drained marshes. He succeeded Barham Salih as president in 2022 and served until 2026.
