    Baghdad / Obelisk: Prime Minister Muhammad Shia' al-Sudani acknowledged the lack of control and the random importation of medicines, despite spending billions of dinars annually.
    Al-Sudani said that Iraq spends $3 billion annually on medicines, most of which are not subject to examination, while Iraq produces only 10% of them.
    For a long time, imported medicines from various origins that are not subject to examination and control have been pumped into Iraq.
    Controlled medicines pose a great danger to the health of the citizen, and sometimes they are expired, or they have been placed for a long time in inappropriate storage places.
    In the middle of last year, a report by the British Chatham House Medical Center showed that counterfeit and non-conforming drug smuggling operations pass through unofficial smuggling points controlled by non-governmental mafias in Iraq.
    The report stated that the share of drug imports that pass through it competes with imports that pass through the official border crossings.
    In the most prominent phenomenon of corruption and monopoly in the health sector, doctors use handwritten coding systems when prescribing medicines, which are illegible texts for all except the pharmacists with whom the doctor prescribing the medicine participates.
    And the process of transporting drugs to all parts of Iraq is linked between a variety of influential elites and protected businessmen.
    The report indicated that most of the specifications of the drugs entering Iraq do not match the specifications of origin and the legal entities of the original manufacturers, while the representatives of the companies enter the products into Iraq through the official customs and border points, and in order to avoid import taxes, they pay bribes to the customs officials.
    From time to time, the government announces that it has thwarted drug smuggling operations from outside the borders, while the drugs that are seized seem to be much less than the ones that leak into the country.
    The Pharmacists Syndicate in Iraq attributes the reason for the entry of spoiled medicines into Iraq through smuggling to the inability of the concerned authorities to control the borders.
    Medicines enter from official outlets, but without the knowledge of the Ministry of Health, and they are hidden by widespread fraudulent methods.
    Information says that one of the reasons for the resignation of the former Minister of Health, Alaa Alwan, was his talk about a huge amount of corrupt medicines, circulating in Iraq and being imported by a network of corrupt influential people.
    The follower of Iraqi affairs, Karwan Ghazni, considers that the pharmaceutical sector is the most dangerous sector in Iraq after the oil sector, and it faces the largest smuggling and waste operations, considering that those who unscrupulously deliver smuggled medicines to our children are more dangerous than drug mafias.
