Iraq faces economic pressures... US tariffs could be the beginning of upcoming challenges.
4/6/2025
Economic expert Salah Nouri confirmed on Saturday that the government may be forced to revise its general budget estimates in light of emerging economic challenges, particularly with shifts in oil revenues and remittances from the US.
Nouri told Al Furat News Agency that "Iraq will not be directly affected by the new US customs duties on oil exports, as Iraqi oil exports to the United States are not included in these duties."
He explained that "although Iraq imposes customs duties on luxury cars imported from the United States, Baghdad may face future pressure to reduce these duties."
He added, "It is likely that Washington will take certain measures to pressure Iraq in this regard, but these scenarios remain mere expectations at the present time."
