Samson: Economist: Political conflicts have lost Iraq’s strength in front of investors
9th October, 2022
The economic expert, Hashem Al-Habboubi, considered on Sunday that the loss of many investment opportunities for important and strategic projects was caused by political conflicts and the loss of confidence between them, pointing out that these struggles made Iraq lose its strength in front of investors.
Al-Haboubi said in a statement to “Al-Mawrafa”, that “the abhorrent quota system and the loss of confidence between parties and political forces and their struggles over high positions and bodies made the doors open for the corrupt and looted treasury funds allocated to projects, especially infrastructure projects,” noting that “infrastructure projects need years of Fixed government funding.
He added that “the loss of many investment opportunities for important and strategic projects is caused by political conflicts and the loss of confidence between them,” noting that “these struggles have made Iraq lose its strength in front of investors.”
The financial advisor to the Prime Minister, Mazhar Muhammad Salih, had confirmed in a previous statement that the minimum budgets lacked opportunities for economic growth, and deprived Iraq of major strategic projects. LINK
