The new Cooperation Principles Document (the signed Memorandum of Understanding) confirms our continued commitment to providing effective results that drive progress in various regions of Iraq and help build its local capabilities.
And he continued, that in 2021, General Electric announced a comprehensive plan for energy transition in Iraq that includes several proposed strategic initiatives to support the transition to the use of cleaner energy sources, and to continue to enhance the capabilities of Iraqi workers in this field.
