The main reasons for not approving the budget, even though it was read twice; This should have paved the way for a vote on it, some of which are due to undisclosed reasons, which is the unwillingness of some political forces to free the hand of Prime Minister Muhammad Shia al-Sudani, who launched a large group of service projects that need financial cover for their implementation, which means from the point of view of some Those forces are a success for the prime minister, who seems to be about to implement everything he pledged, away from the vision of the political forces, who are accustomed to not deviating from any prime minister.
And according to identical political sources through what is going on in the secret rooms, after it seemed that the budget was finally completed and ready for voting, what al-Sudani announced his desire to conduct a cabinet reshuffle made many political forces reconsider their accounts regarding it, including reviewing the issue of approving Balance, by returning to the origin of the differences that should have been settled in the first and second readings.
The objections expressed by some political forces were represented in three points, namely that the budget is for three years, not one year, and the second is that the budget contains a large deficit, and the third is represented in the price of one barrel of oil against the dollar, which is $70 per barrel, with the fear of the possibility of a drop in oil prices. .
Al-Sudani, who did not make concessions, has become worrisome to many, in addition to his insistence on the cabinet reshuffle and his initiation earlier this week of implementing the first two major projects to relieve traffic jams in the capital, Baghdad, which indicates his progress in implementing his plans with a clear quest to make the political blocs confront the angry street. However, some political blocs have something to put pressure on the government even if it is part of his responsibility, such as the issue of the “salary scale”.
Yesterday morning, in several Iraqi provinces, at the same time, several demonstrations were launched by state employees, demanding an amendment to the salary scale before approving the budget. According to observers and financial experts, the issue of the salary scale, which is one of the important problems at the level of public employment in Iraq and the differences between state employees, cannot be resolved at a time when the budget is ready for a vote.
According to what was announced by a number of deputies in the Iraqi parliament, as well as financial experts, that discussing and approving the new salary scale that has not yet been initiated takes a long time, which means that if it is linked to the budget, its approval will be suspended for another year, just as it was suspended from mid-2021 to mid-2023. Through the year 2022.
While the treasury of the Central Bank of Iraq is filled with more than 115 billion US dollars, most of it from oil sales, which until the end of March amounted to about 7 billion US dollars.
The demonstrators, who erupted simult aneously in the governorates of Baghdad, Basra, Dhi Qar and other cities, demanded an adjustment to the salary scale in order to reduce the differences between employees. Note that the number of employees and retirees in Iraq exceeds 6 million employees, on whom the state spends about $5 billion in salaries; This drains more than 70 percent of the state budget, which goes to what is operational, while the unemployment rate rises dramatically in the country, as well as the rate of inflation.
And the dollar prices against the Iraqi dinar recorded a sharp rise during the past months, reaching 170 thousand dinars for every hundred US dollars, before the government took strict measures, including negotiations with the US “federal” that then led to a clear decrease in the exchange rates of the dollar, to approach its main rate set by the government. , which is 132 dinars per dollar, while its current price in the market stands at about 140 dinars per US dollar. link
