The Prime Minister outlined this as an essential priority for the rule of law and societal progress, a testament to the vision of a fair and equitable Iraq.

Unwavering Support for Regulatory Bodies

Al-Sudani emphasized his government’s unwavering support for the regulatory bodies tasked with maintaining checks and balances in the system.

Global Cooperation in Denying Safe Havens

The Prime Minister stressed the importance of an international commitment to deny safe havens to corrupt individuals. This, he argued, is a vital step in ensuring accountability and upholding justice, not just within Iraq’s borders, but on a global scale.
