An expert reveals the reason for the fragility of the Iraqi market: Countries want imports to remain
Today, Monday (September 30, 2024), economic expert Nasser Al-Kanani revealed the reason for the fragility of the Iraqi local market and its inability to confront any external problems.
Al-Kanani said in an interview with Baghdad Today, “The Iraqi local market is fragile and cannot face any external problems, as it depends only on foreign imports, and does not depend on local national production, and therefore the market is greatly affected by any external problems, and cannot face any of those problems, and therefore the Iraqi government must work seriously to restore local production so that the local market is strong and not affected by any regional or international problems and crises.”

He added, “The Iraqi local market is considered one of the most important markets for many countries in the region and the world, to sell their materials in it, and it is not unlikely that there are countries working to keep the Iraqi market fragile and dependent on imports, instead of national production, and for this reason, throughout the past years, we have not seen any control of local products over the market.”
Last March, the Central Bank of Iraq announced that “there is no return to the previous price of the dollar, and the price will not be reduced under any circumstances,” stressing that there is no intention to raise the price above 145,000 for every 100 dollars, which is the official Iraqi exchange rate.
The prices of basic foodstuffs doubled after the government devalued the dinar, and prices increased again, before rising again due to the rise in the price of the dollar .
The prices of some food items in Iraq have increased by between 25 and 75 percent, as the price of one kilogram of sugar rose from 1,000 dinars to 1,300 dinars in retail markets, a bottle of cooking oil from 1,500 to 3,000, and grains from 500-750 to 1,000-1,500 dinars link
