Representative Alia Nassif renewed her demand to amend the exchange rate of the dollar against the dinar and to make an amendment to it by the government in the financial budget for the year 2022.
And she said in a statement issued today, Friday, “We have previously called for restoring the exchange rate of the dollar against the Iraqi dinar to what it was in the past, after the rise in oil prices in global markets and the absence of a need to maintain the new exchange rate.”
She explained that “those affected by the increase in the price of the dollar and the decrease in the price of the dinar are the poor and toiling class who do not find their daily food,” noting that “the government should make adjustments to the budget for next year and reduce the exchange rate of the dollar against the dinar and return it to the previous price.”
