Iraqi Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi has directed the Military Industrialization Authority to contract directly with manufacturers and bar intermediaries, in a move to promote transparency and curb corruption and extra costs in government procurement. Sources say some intermediary firms are linked to the economic interests of armed factions and are used to channel contracts and provide funding. No implementation measures have yet been announced, nor have any contracts been reported as canceled. Al-Zaidi said Iraq has the expertise to manufacture its military needs domestically, while experts said the directive’s success would depend on how it is implemented and on auditing contracts.
