The economic expert, Ihsan Al-Kinani, confirmed that the government does not have any justification to continue to raise the exchange rate of the dollar in the local markets, pointing out that
oil prices and financial abundance make it imperative for the next government to take measures to reduce the exchange rate.
Al-Kinani told Al-Maalouma, "Oil prices exceeded 80 dollars per barrel, at a time when Iraq was able to overcome the financial crisis that occurred in 2020, which pushed towards raising the exchange rate of the dollar, and today the need for that is no longer needed."
He added, "Iraq has all the financial capabilities and qualifications that necessitate a reduction in the exchange rate, especially after the completion of Kuwait's compensation and the rise in oil prices, as well as the increase in oil production by OPEC after its last meeting on Tuesday of last week."
And he indicated that "the next budget will be decisive, either to continue starving the people, or to return things to their previous status by reducing the exchange rate and specifying it in the budget." finished 25
