Prime Minister Mohammed Shiaa Al-Sudani said on Thursday that: “Economic reform is its gateway to financial and banking reform,” while noting that “the government is committed to providing the dollar at the official price, and stressed its keenness to end the suffering of Kurdistan employees due to their salary delays,” Al-Sudani said in a televised interview followed by “informed” that: “Conducting the population census is the first steps to implement Article 140 of the Constitution was postponed to 2024 after it was scheduled to be held this year because of the provincial council elections,” pointing out that “it is time to raise the outstanding problems between Baghdad and Erbil, which lies at the border and budget ports.” 

He added, “We went to borrow from the Ministry of Finance to pay the salaries of the employees of the Kurdistan region and we are with finding a solution with a legal amendment that considers the employees of the Kurdistan region like the rest of Iraq’s employees,” stressing that “the government is keen to end the suffering of the crisis of the salaries of Kurdistan employees.” On the other hand, “economic reform is its gateway to financial and banking reform and the issue of the exchange rate requires this reform and we are committed to providing the dollar at the official rate to traders, investors, contractors, students and travelers.”

 He pointed out that “95 percent of our trade now passes through the electronic platform and there are those who circumvent the law and buy the dollar at the parallel price because he does not want to implement legal procedures.” “We will not accept that the official dollar rate is equal to the parallel rate because it encourages smuggling,” he stressed. On foreign trade, Al-Sudani said: “There is no problem for the Iranian side in dealing with trade with Iraq in dinars or toman.” “The problem of commercial transfers to Turkey has been solved by opening accounts in Turkish lira,” he continued. He stressed that “food prices have remained stable, despite the attempt of manipulators to speculate on the price of the dollar.”
