He pointed out that “only 25% of Iraq’s current imports are currently affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate, because they are implemented without going through the platform of the Central Bank, and this percentage is decreasing.” Views 33 05/20/2023 – https://economy-news.net/content.php?id=34306
