Iraqs domestic debt is rising and there are claims that budget schedules are being hidden to prevent the truth from being revealedAl-Maalouma/Baghdad…
Economic researcher Diaa Abdul Karim believes that the internal debt is high and the budget tables have not been submitted to Parliament to ensure that the facts are not revealed as the elections approach.
Abdul Karim told Al-Maalouma, “The talk by some representatives from the Parliamentary Finance Committee regarding the debt in Iraq reaching 90 trillion dinars represents a dangerous precedent that will leave Iraq bankrupt in the coming years.”
He added, “The government’s move to conceal the budget tables and not submit them to Parliament aims to ensure that the facts regarding Iraq’s internal and external debts are not revealed, in addition to avoiding opening the door to political conflicts and criticism, especially as the elections approach.”
He explained that “Iraq will suffer greatly from a financial crisis in the coming years, due to what the current government has done and the huge debts it has burdened Iraq with, the price of which future generations will pay.”
