France–Kurdistan Region relations are bilateral relations between France and Kurdistan Region[1]. France has a consulate general in Erbil[2] and Kurdistan Region has a representation in Paris.[3] The ties between France and Kurdistan Region have been very close since the presidency of François Mitterrand (1981–1995), when his wife Danielle Mitterrand played an instrumental role in the campaign for the no fly zone over Kurdistan Region in 1991.[4] France has a military presence in Kurdistan Region,[5] and Consul General Dominique Mas described their relations as being "historic" and "long-term".[6]
