The economic expert, Mustafa Akram, expected that Iraq would enter a good economic phase with the arrival of Trump, and while he indicated that the banking system would face a “major dilemma,” he confirmed that Iraq responds to crises and lacks control and command.
Akram said during an intervention in the program “Al-Thamina with Ahmed Al-Tayeb”, followed by “Al-Jarida”, that “the budget amendments will include new prices for Kurdish oil, and next year the decision on the Iraqi dollar will be transferred to Jordan, and the Central Bank agreements should be activated, but there is (cheating), and the private sector is currently being built with (talks) without implementation.”
Akram pointed out that “the Ministry of Communications is behind stopping TikTok transfers, and it is linked to the low-quality content.”
In a separate context, Akram explained: “We have about 10 million unemployed people and we will be affected by the situation in Syria, and if the wave of displacement from Syria occurs, it will affect Iraq,” noting that “the armed groups will sell Syrian oil for $25 per barrel.”
