Accountability for Decline in Local Industry
In a recent statement, Mahmoud Al-Qaisi, vice president of the Al-Azm coalition, has pointed fingers at the Minister of Industry and Minerals for the significant decline in Iraq’s local manufacturing sector and the shutdown of various factories.
In a post on the social media platform X, Al-Qaisi expressed his concerns regarding the troubling trend in local industry, emphasizing that the responsibility for these downturns lies predominantly with the current minister. This statement highlights ongoing frustrations within governmental circles regarding the performance and accountability of the industry leadership in promoting and sustaining domestic production capabilities.
As Iraq navigates its economic challenges, the emphasis on revitalizing local industries becomes increasingly critical. Stakeholders are keenly aware that a robust industrial base is essential for achieving broader economic stability and growth.
Continued scrutiny of the Minister’s strategies and decisions will likely remain a focal point for both political and economic discussions as the country seeks effective solutions to bolster its manufacturing sector.
