    Baghdad today - Baghdad 
    On the twenty-fourth of January of this year, the Iraqi Prime Minister, Muhammad Shiaa Al-Sudani, reassigned Ali Mohsen Al-Alaq to the position of Governor of the Central Bank, more than two years after his dismissal from the same position that he held for about six years, from 2014 until 2020.
    As the US dollar exchange rate crisis worsened and it continued to rise against the Iraqi dinar, in addition to the rise in the interest rate on loans granted by the Central Bank, voices rose within the Iraqi House of Representatives to demand the dismissal of Governor Ali Al-Alaq from his position and replace him with another to address the high exchange rate and financial and economic reforms after Al-Alaq’s failure. In resolving these crises. According to the opinion of the representatives.
    In this regard, independent MP Hadi Al-Salami confirms, today, Sunday (October 1, 2023), the continuation of the parliamentary movement aimed at removing Ali Al-Alaq from the duties of managing the Central Bank of Iraq.
    Al-Salami says, to “Baghdad Today,” that “many representatives have different observations regarding the management of the relationship with the Central Bank of Iraq. There is a major failure in this administration, and despite all the promises and actions taken by Al-Alaq, the central bank is still not in control of the issue of the rise in the dollar exchange rate, and there is exacerbation of this crisis.
    Al-Alaq's presidency of the bank witnessed a number of financial failures, the most prominent of which was the sinking of 7 billion Iraqi dinars in the money store inside the Central Bank building in central Baghdad, and the discovery of other large amounts being damaged as a result of humidity and rainwater.
    The representative believes, “There are comments on the issue of raising interest on housing loans. This matter will reduce the issue of applying for these loans, which aim to reduce the housing crisis. This matter has caused great public anger, as such measures exacerbate the housing crisis and do not reduce it, despite This crisis has worsened in all Iraqi cities, with the significant rise in real estate prices.”
    While economic affairs researcher Nasser Al-Kanani, MP Al-Salami, shares the opinion by saying that increasing the interest on housing loans will exacerbate the housing crisis in Iraq, he confirmed in an interview with “Baghdad Today” that “increasing the interest on housing loans will significantly reduce citizens’ contributions to... Obtaining these loans, the interest will be very large, and it is certain that this step opposes all efforts to reduce the housing crisis, but rather it will be a factor in exacerbating the crisis.”
    The researcher continues by saying, “Solving the housing crisis in Iraq requires presenting multiple offers to citizens and employees regarding housing loans, through the loan repayment period, the interest rate, and other encouraging factors to push the citizen to withdraw loans in order to buy housing for himself. This is how the crisis is solved and managed, not "The opposite."
    Between 2006 and 2014, Ali Al-Alaq served as Secretary General of the Council of Ministers, during the first and second Maliki governments, before he was named acting governor of the Central Bank for a period of 6 years starting in 2014, in addition to being named president of the “Joint Council to Combat Corruption in Iraq.”
    Al-Alaq (62 years old) holds a higher diploma in financial sciences from the University of Baghdad. During his tenure as Governor of the Central Bank, Iraq witnessed many crises related to the management of the bank, the most prominent of which was the scandal of fake import documents, according to which the dollar was obtained from the currency auction at the Central Bank, without the companies concerned importing any materials into Iraq.
    This comes in addition to the scandal of the sinking of more than 7 billion dinars as a result of rainwater in the Central Bank’s warehouse in 2018, and the destruction of other amounts due to humidity. The step of writing Al-Alaq’s name on banknotes of 250 dinars and 1000 dinars, contrary to the approved Iraqi law, led to mentioning The governor's statement and his signature on the currency led to increasing controversy, along with the file of the Central Bank's financing of government deals marred by corruption.
