Article:   "Kuwait connects its “Fiber” network to Iraq"  Quote:  "Iraq will be a major corridor for passing the network, not only in the Gulf.  But for the countries of East Asia, it will be synonymous with the Egyptian corridor...Iraq has become the focus of attention of countries and major international companies due to the incidents that took place in the Red Sea and the fear of the cessation of communications through this corridor."

 IN 2023 THERE WAS AN APPEAL ON THE ACTUAL BUDGET... BUT WAS RULED OUT THROUGH THE COURTS. THE TRIPARTE BUDGET WAS LEGALLY PASSED, SENT TO THE PRES. WHO SIGNED IT AND WAS PUBLISHED IN THE GAZETTE. 

 Today's Article Quote:   "I do not think there will be an appeal, and even if there is an appeal, the budget will be spent, because it was voted on and its issue was decided legally."  THERE IS NO APPEAL ON THE BUDGET SCHEDULES THAT WERE JUST PASSED BY PARLIAMENT AND IT WAS NOT NECESSARY TO BE SIGNED BY PRES. BECAUSE THE BUDGET WAS ALREADY PASSED...THE MOJ HAS IT NOW AND WILL PUBLISH WHEN READY.
