He added that "the Expo was able to devote the idea of Iraq's success and its ability to absorb all investments, and the extent of its readiness for them."
And he indicated that "the Iraqi pavilion in the exhibition was designed in the form of a fishing net in a way that suggests that Iraq is promising in opportunities, and it is an invitation for all investors to seize this opportunity and enter the Iraqi market, and the design of the pavilion indicates the extent of Iraq's interest in investments, especially since it is a large country with many Wealths, whether mineral, agricultural, human, or related to the geographical location.
He added that “Iraq has many sectors that the investor can resort to, especially the sectors of energy, transportation, technology, logistical support and other important projects,” noting that “the profit rate for projects that invested in Iraq amounted to more than 50%, and this is a very large percentage.” It is an important opportunity for investors.”
And he added, "Iraq has many memoranda of understanding and agreements with the Emirates, especially during the past year, when more than one agreement of understanding was concluded between the two countries, the most important of which is the agreement between the Ministry of Transport and Abu Dhabi Ports, and the agreement between the Masdar Company and the Iraqi government to establish five projects in Iraq."
In addition to the agreement held by the Dubai government to benefit from its expertise in the field of planning, because the latter is known for the effectiveness of its projects and its investment of time, in addition to the agreement concluded between the Central Bank of Iraq and the Central Bank of the Emirates.
