Background Information:

The Assyrians (known also as Chaldo-Assyrians) are the indigenous people of Iraq and make 5% of the Iraqi population. As Christians, the Assyrians are working with all other parties involved in Iraq and outside to establish a democratic, secular, free, and pluralistic Iraq.

Thank you.
