“The red line” is the paradoxical motto of Iraq's democratic era, writes journalist Sarkawt Rstem with an Iraqi background.
In my early days In Finland, I asked my Finnish friends if there are any holy figures or leaders in this society. My question seemed funny to them and they didn't really understand what I meant. Until I explained.
In Iraq, a ring is drawn around the political, military and religious leaders, as well as some tribal leaders, which we call the red line. It comes from their influence and emphasizes their role as protectors of citizens and the country's dignity.
