Oil cutoff via Hormuz threatens Iraq's economy
Iraq is suffering from a severe financial crisis due to a drop in oil exports, which account for about 90% of its revenue, as a result of the closure of the Strait of Hormuz and damage to alternative routes. The economic repercussions, including declining financial reserves and a 10% decrease in gross domestic product, have led the government to print 25 trillion dinars and make adjustments to export sources, relying on alternative methods such as land transportation through Syria and Turkey. Iraq faces challenges in diversifying its economy, reforming its tax system, and restructuring the public sector, with the need to move away from an un diversified rentier economy in order to achieve financial stability and sustainable development.
