ATRUSHI: THE OIL AND GAS LAW MUST BE PASSED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE
ATRUSHI: THE OIL AND GAS LAW MUST BE PASSED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
The second deputy speaker of the Iraqi parliament, Farhad Atrushi, indicated that so far more than 40 people have nominated themselves for the position of president of the republic, but the two parties, the Democratic Party and the Patriotic Union, do not have a candidate. He stressed that in order to solve the financial problems and implement federalism, the oil and gas law must be passed as soon as possible. At the same time, regarding the parliamentary committees, he said: The committees are formed temporarily.
On Sunday, January 4, 2026, during his participation in the “Today’s Talk” program on Kurdistan24, Atroushi said: In Iraq, the parliament is the center of the political process and the center for making important decisions, so maintaining the position of Deputy Speaker of Parliament for the Kurds is very important.
He added: “Today the new parliament held its first session, during which I submitted a proposal that the parliament’s presidency should have special legislative authority for the next four years, in order to have clarity in the implementation of laws and the identification of important laws. They also welcomed the proposal.” He also said: “In the next session, we will decide on the general outlines of the parliament’s policy and form a special committee.”
He continued: “The oil and gas law must be issued in order to implement fiscal federalism, because a large part of Iraq’s revenues are provided through oil and gas, and without implementing the law and the constitution, no problem will ever be solved, and the constitution must be the arbite r.”
He added, “So far, more than 40 people have nominated themselves for the presidency, and we expect that number to increase tomorrow, but neither of the two main parties has yet put forward a candidate for the position.” He also stressed that the Kurds must be united on the issue of the presidency and have a single position.
He went on to say: “Tomorrow we will form a committee to lay some foundations and monitor the distribution of parliamentary committees,” and said: The distribution of parliamentary committees should be temporary only to carry out the work of parliament until the new government is formed.

SALEH’S APPEARANCE: THE FLUCTUATIONS IN THE PARALLEL MARKET ARE TEMPORARY AND DO NOT AFFECT THE STABILITY OF LIVING STANDARDS
The economic advisor to the Prime Minister, Mazhar Muhammad Saleh, confirmed on Monday that the fluctuation in global oil prices is not directly related to the volatility of the parallel exchange market in Iraq, explaining that the monetary policy based on a fixed exchange rate supported by reserves exceeding $100 billion provides a strong stability umbrella for foreign currency.
Saleh told Al-Furat News Agency that “the limited fluctuations in the parallel market represent temporary and ineffective reactions that came in response to the launch of the latest fiscal discipline package, which included decisions to re-examine the paths of public spending and enhance the efficiency of revenues, especially through expanding and controlling tax and customs bases.”
He added that “these movements are a natural behavior for markets when they receive new signals from fiscal policy, as supply and demand forces tend to test these signals and adapt to them in stages, before returning to more stable paths that are in harmony with economic and financial fundamentals.”
He pointed out that “the current fluctuations in the parallel market do not reflect a structural imbalance in the exchange market, but rather a temporary adaptation phase with regulatory tools aimed at enhancing financial and monetary stability in the medium term.”
Saleh pointed out that “the limited movements observed in the parallel market do not affect the stability of the general price range, which has maintained a low inflation rate of about 2.5% annually, which reflects the effectiveness of the macroeconomic policy mix.”
He explained that stability is due to the convergence of three main policies:
Monetary policy: A fixed official exchange rate for the Iraqi dinar at 1320 dinars to the dollar. Fiscal policy: Broad support amounting to about 13% of GDP, limits the transmission of price shocks to living standards.
Trade policy: Price defense through the subsidized food basket and the modern market system (hypermarkets), which absorbs the noise generated by the parallel market and turns it into stable white noise.
Saleh concluded by saying that “the parallel market no longer has a significant impact on daily life, after its effect became detached from income and consumption levels and its impact shifted mainly to the asset sector, which is not directly related to the stability of living or social peace.”
