Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi announced on Thursday that his government is working to “draw an economic identity for Iraq and move away from the socialist mentality” by attracting international companies to invest in various projects across all sectors in the country.
Al-Zaydi said in a speech during his meeting with a group of tribal sheikhs and dignitaries with whom he exchanged greetings on the occasion of Eid al-Adha, that “countries are based on three foundations: economic stability, political stability, and security stability,” stressing that “the state alone must possess power, and this is a decision, not a choice.”
Regarding foreign relations, the Prime Minister stated that Iraq is a country within the international community, and that they are committed to strengthening relations and cooperation, stressing that they will not allow any cases of blackmail or obstruction of foreign companies’ work in Iraq.
