One of the most prominent merchants in the city of Mosul, Hassan Kilawi, said in a statement to the National Iraqi News Agency ( NINA ) that "the continuation of the rise in this way affects the economic situation and markets in Mosul and the whole of Iraq."

He continued, "The Mosul markets are witnessing a very large stagnation due to the high prices of food products, which was a major reason for the rise in the price of the dollar, which negatively affected the Mosul street, calling on the Central Bank to intervene quickly to solve the crisis of the high price of the dollar, which negatively affected citizens due to the deterioration of the economic conditions in Iraq in general, especially Nineveh."

Uday al-Badrani confirmed, "This increase has led to a deterioration in the purchasing power of citizens and an increase in the cost of living.

Prices were greatly affected, as the prices of basic commodities, foodstuffs and basic supplies rose. Various economic sectors, such as industry, agriculture and trade, were also affected due to high import costs and a decline in investments, and this led to a deterioration in the economic situation and an increase in unemployment and poverty rates .
