The Chairman of the Finance Committee discusses with the World Bank delegation the project of the development road and the energy sector in Iraq

The Chairman of the Finance Committee, Engineer Atwan Al-Atwani, received today, Monday, 27/5/2024, the World Bank delegation headed by Mr. Jean-Christophe Carré, Regional Director for the Middle East, to discuss supporting the development road project and the energy sector in Iraq.

The meeting reviewed the economic vision of the Development Road Project and its strategic importance in activating the investment movement, maximizing non-oil revenues and providing job opportunities.

He also discussed the multi-stage support provided by the World Bank for the Development Road project, including the modernization and rehabilitation of the current railway network and linking it from southern Iraq through the north to Turkey.

Mr. Al-Atwani called on the World Bank delegation to present new insights and ideas on achieving optimal investment for this huge project, which it is hoped will make Iraq an economic corridor linking Asia with Europe.

The Chairman of the Committee explained that the infrastructure of the development path should be in the hands of the government so that this important project linking Iraq with the countries of the world is not subject to effects.

The meeting witnessed a discussion of the continued support from the World Bank for the energy sector in Iraq, especially with regard to strengthening the electricity network, developing renewable energy and regional connectivity .
