BAGHDAD/ Aswat al-Iraq: Chairman of the Central Council of the Kurdish National Union Party announced today that the response of President Jalal Talabani to medication is "good", but expecting that he needs another two months for rest.

Adil Murad told Aswat al-Iraq that the bleeding had stopped, but needs two months to rest away from political work.

Earlier, President Talabani remained three months in Germany for medication where his knee was operated.

President Talabani used to suffer from health implications for the last years, where he was admitted to Hussein Medical Hospital in Jordan for few weeks, then moved to USA.

Murad added that Kosrat Rasoul will head the party during Talabani's absence, with the assistance of Barham Saleh and a 3-man committee.
