As a result, a cooperation agreement was drafted and signed by both parties.
Younis Seddiq is one of the poets from Nineveh whose name emerged in the late 1970s. His poetry is known for its affiliation with what was referred to as the New Realism. However, he did not remain in the city for long as he traveled abroad for studies and found a work opportunity that he loved, which led him to establish his cultural center focused on translation, promoting Arab culture, and fostering cross-cultural literary exchanges.
