The Independent – Representative of the State of Law coalition, Firas Al-Maslmawi, confirmed that his coalition and other representatives within the same direction will not allow the budget to pass for the current year except after a reduction in the exchange rate of the dollar against the dinar, pointing out that changing the exchange rate and its rise did not achieve any benefit, and worked to starve the people.
Al-Maslamawi said in a press statement, which was monitored by The Independent, that “the general budget for the current year will not be passed in Parliament if the dollar exchange rate continues as it is at the present time.”
He added, “The significant rise in the exchange rate has caused a lot of harm to the people, and it cannot be allowed to continue rising in the current year’s budget, especially since the price change by the government did not achieve any benefit other than starving the Iraqi people.”
And he indicated that “the change in the exchange rate has caused great damage, especially the poor class, and therefore it will not be allowed to continue rising, as there will be a movement towards independent representatives and supporters to reduce the price in order to proceed with it and not pass the budget according to the current rise.”
