He continued that "Iraq exports about 4 million barrels of oil daily, and with the rate of stability of the barrel price of 40 dollars, this means that Iraq achieves about 49 billion dollars annually, in addition to about 9 billion dinars from the revenues of border crossings, with improving tax performance, Iraq has 66." One billion Iraqi budget revenues."
The economic expert noted, "Iraq is witnessing financial bankruptcy at this time, but it is not real bankruptcy.

He pointed out that "going towards external borrowing from the International Monetary Fund, requires the existence of sovereign guarantees on oil, and other measures," indicating that
"the external debt owed by Iraq has reached more than 80 billion dollars."
