He added that "this year's budget will not contain anything new and will not differ from the previous one and will be similar to others, because the new government will not have room for creativity and the old government is the one who set the budget."

Regarding the Cabinet’s decision to create job levels, Cougar stated that “the funds for these degrees are supposed to be included in the 2022 budget, but if the installation is according to (deletion and creation), it is possible, but any new installation is not possible.”

He explained that "according to the statements of the Minister of Finance that Iraq will lay off its employees after ten years, this means that the numbers are large, and according to international standards, the number of employees in Iraq is eight times the rest of the countries."   LINK
