H.E. also explained the nature of the economic challenge resulting from regional events, expressing confidence in Iraq’s ability to overcome this challenge, as it overcame the political, social, and security challenges, and stressing meeting the demands of the people of Bashir and compensating the families of martyrs and the wounded.
