    Erbil (Kurdistan 24) - The Iraqi Ministry of Finance announced today, Sunday, the reasons that prompted the state about a year ago to reduce the value of the dinar against the dollar.
    This came after rumors spread widely, and talked about the existence of efforts to reduce the price of the dollar, which resulted in fluctuation in the exchange rate.

    The statement stated, "Whereas the Social Protection Authority was supported by increasing the allocations of the new targeted groups to compensate for the emergency change in the exchange rate and to subsidize the poor, but the House of Representatives reduced the amounts allocated to the new inclusion, which led to the non-inclusion of new families within social protection."
    The Ministry of Finance said that "the change in the exchange rate of the dinar came in conjunction with the implementation of the economic reform project, which the Iraqi government called (the white paper) and it was a necessary option to reform the structural system of the Iraqi economy."
    She explained that "the change in the exchange rate gave great strength in the economic joints of the country, and it is in line with the statements of the Central Bank, which confirmed that raising the exchange rate led to an increase in the possibility of competition for the local product, and to reduce the pressure of expenditures on the Ministry of Finance by 23%, which enabled the Ministry of Finance to overcome the crisis." Resulting from the drop in global oil prices during 2020 and the first months of 2021.”

    She said, "The statistics of the specialized international organizations indicate the gross domestic product at 9% for the first half of 2021, and the growth of the non-oil economy by more than 21% in the first half of 2021, and this is due to the strong performance in the service sectors after easing the measures to prevent corona virus." The novelty.
    This recovery reduced the lag in the oil sector, by 10% in the first half of 2021, as Iraq adjusted its share in OPEC, and since then, OPEC gradually increased the production share of member states, which was reflected in an increase in GDP and the general inflation rate reached And the primary in Iraq for the period from January to July 2021, reaching 5.2% and 6.3%, respectively, due to the increase in domestic demand and the insufficient supply of commodities to meet the full increased demand, in addition to the positive impact of inflation due to the decline in import prices in some exporting countries facing deterioration in the value of their local currencies.
    She said that she had worked "to attract companies to support investment in Iraq for the purpose of promoting the country's economy by maximizing non-oil revenues, emphasizing the need to adopt the budget of programs to achieve the best performance of the plans and timings set, and to put in place appropriate mechanisms within its strategy to finance and involve the private sector, and to approve the implementation of strategic projects with a multiplier effect and scaling back."
