Together with Sidqi, an ethnic Kurd , Sulayman veered away from the Pan-Arab Nationalism of the preceding Iraqi governments. Together with Sidqi, he forged an alliance with Turkey and settled the border dispute with Iran , two countries he regarded as potential allies in the struggle against Arab nationalist sentiment. Nevertheless, he differed with Sidqi over the emphases of the new government, preferring to address social issues in the country, while Sidqi focused on military affairs and expanding Iraq's borders. Sulayman was forced to resign following Sidqi's assassination in 1937. |
