Information / Baghdad..
The head of Zakho Al-Faw Gathering, independent MP Amer Abdul-Jabbar, warned, on Monday, of a major humanitarian crisis as a result of the crisis of the continued rise of the dollar, expressing his surprise at the failure to include a paragraph discussing the rise in the exchange rate of the dollar on the agenda of the session last Saturday.
Abdul-Jabbar said in a statement to Al-Maalouma, “We are surprised that a paragraph was not included discussing the rise in the exchange rate of the dollar, despite the approval of First Deputy Mohsen Al-Mandalawi.”
He added, “We collected about 182 parliamentary signatures in order to discuss the dollar crisis, which negatively affected daily employers, the poor, and those with limited income.”
Abdul-Jabbar pointed out that “the House of Representatives supports the government’s measures to combat corruption and address the file of money laundering within private banks,” considering that “it is unacceptable to leave people facing high prices without finding solutions to the dollar crisis.”
Earlier, the representative of the Sadiqun bloc, Uday Awad, accused Parliament Speaker Muhammad al-Halbousi of using his powers to confiscate the rights of other political forces, indicating that he had ignored the signatures of 200 parliamentarians regarding the dollar crisis.
