 A deputy reveals the results of the war on “hard currency” smuggling

On Thursday, Representative Yasser Iskandar revealed the results of the war on the smuggling of hard currency from Iraq. 

Iskandar said in an interview with Al-Maalouma, “The smuggling of hard currency is one of the tools that drain the economy and creates an anomaly in the balance of exchange rates and pushes the parallel market to rise, which leads to excessive prices in the markets, the price of which is paid by the simple people.” 

He added, “The efforts of the Ministry of Interior with the Central Bank and supporting formations contributed to reducing the file of hard currency smuggling by 80%, while directing 11 specific strikes to companies and offices dealing in the file of selling currency illegally.” 

He pointed out that "currency smuggling is part of corruption that requires exceptional efforts to dismantle it, and government committees are continuing to expose it day after day." 

It is noteworthy that the smuggling of hard currency leads to an increase in exchange rates in Iraq, which puts pressure on the markets and leads to the emergence of excessive prices.   link
