It also appears that Prime Minister Muhammad Shia Al-Sudani laid the foundation for basic visions and ideas that are reflected in the lives of Iraqis, including creating a culture of transparency and integrity, and this The matter affects Iraq's reputation positively, and also affects international support and the creation of an investment environment in Iraq to attract companies, and these are the first fruits of reform that Sudanese reaped as a result of the positive repercussions of his government program.”
