By imposing a tax and deduction on the salaries of employees, which means that there are two strikes for the employee, which means that liquidity will decrease in the market, meaning a severe economic crisis, and the beneficiaries of it are parties that are on the fingers of one hand and may not exceed the two parties only, which are the decision makers and those steps.
He stressed, "The importance for the government to have a real and serious vision of the extent of the challenge and its risks to the Iraqi people, and to work to follow up the markets, not to prejudice the salaries of employees, to control the currency exchange market and to prevent it from getting out of control as is happening now, and for this file to be kept out of political conflicts with the near elections in order to Do not be used for electoral purposes, considering that this issue is political rather than economic," explaining that
"the rise in global oil prices, on its part, may encourage the government and the Central Bank to reconsider the current exchange rate, and work to restore the prestige of the Iraqi dinar because this step It means establishing a healthy economy and not a fictitious economy as some promote it."
