The economic expert, Abdul Hassan Al-Shammari, confirmed: The delay in approving the budget is a negative matter and evidence of the differences of the political blocs. Noting: In light of this situation, its approval may take nearly a month.
He told the National Iraqi News Agency / NINA /: If the budget remains between push and pull without a tight economic construction, it will not be a tight budget.
Al-Shammari added: The most important budget problem is the large deficit, which exceeds 63 trillion dinars, which is a large number, indicating that it is true that the oil price of $86 may cover the deficit, but in the coming months it may decrease.
He explained: One of the negatives accompanying the budget is also that until now, appointments in state departments that will become a state of employees have not stopped without producing./ End
