She said the organization, that "the rating was based on key indicators including the decline in oil prices, which led to the deterioration of the financial situation of Iraq, which relies more than 90 percent of its economy on oil imports, which constitutes 50 percent of GDP," indicating that "the inability of the Iraqi economy As a result increased to 8.2 percent during the 2016 year. "
