AL-KADHIMI: "THERE IS A SERIOUS AND REAL WORK TO STRENGTHEN THE IRAQI DINAR, THE PROBLEM IS THE "POLITICAL PROTECTION" OF THE BLACK DOLLAR" , 6 MARCH

 Comment From Parliament On The Dollar Exchange Rate: Do Not Listen To The Losers

Economy |Baghdad today - Baghdad    Today, Wednesday (March 6, 2024), the Parliamentary Finance Committee confirmed that the dollar is controlled by the relevant government agencies, calling for not taking into account the rumors of losing and corrupt parties.

Committee member Moin Al-Kazemi told “Baghdad Today” that “there are some politically losing parties and personalities who have major suspicions of corruption, working to continue spreading rumors that the government is not in control of the dollar market and the Iraqi dinar is declining, for the purpose of political influence as well as influencing the market".

Al-Kadhimi added, "The government is currently in complete control of the dollar in all its transactions, and there is real and serious work to strengthen the Iraqi dinar," stressing that "everyone is required not to take into account the rumors of losing and corrupt parties, as they do not want economic stability, to achieve their suspicious agendas."


The expert in economic affairs, Ahmed Al-Tamimi, confirmed earlier today, Wednesday, that the dollar crisis in Iraq is behind corruption mafias, with political protection from some influential people and parties that are trying to obstruct economic reforms.

Al-Tamimi told "Baghdad Today", "The politically protected corruption mafias were the primary beneficiaries of the dollar crisis and they worked to exacerbate this crisis for their interests and gains, and they are currently working to obstruct any government reforms in the financial and economic sector."

He added, "These mafias have political protection from some influential people and parties, and these parties work politically to create problems so that any government efforts that want reform fail. This is why we see that the dollar crisis is still continuing and ongoing despite all government steps. The parallel market is still witnessing a significant increase." at the official price.

Exchange rates have not stabilized for nearly two years, despite many measures taken by the government in an attempt to control it, all of which failed, due to the existence of political “protection” of the black dollar, according to observers.   LINK
