Tishwash: A member of parliament demands that al-Zaydi close two loopholes that are plundering the Iraqi budget.
MP Faleh Al-Khazali called on Prime Minister Ali Al-Zaidi on Sunday (May 31, 2026) to take practical and tangible measures to combat corruption in the files of implementing government contracts and the general budget, stressing the need to put an end to what he described as “the chaos of circumventing the law” through pretexts of adding components or changing spare parts in government contracts, warning of its serious repercussions on the general budget.
The MP also called for the instructions for implementing government contracts to be turned into legally binding legislation, considering that this would contribute to curbing the phenomenon of overpricing projects.
The following is the text of what Al-Khazali published in a post on the “X” platform, which was followed by the 964 Network , addressed to “Mr. Ali Al-Zaidi, the respected: Combating corruption requires practical steps, the most important of which are:
1- Stop the chaos of circumventing the law under the guise of adding a component or changing a spare part. This file contains destruction to the budget.
2- Converting the instructions for implementing government contracts into law, and this will stop the chaos of exorbitant project price hikes.”
Earlier, on Saturday (May 30, 2026), Prime Minister Ali Faleh al-Zaidi directed the establishment of the Supreme Sovereign Council for Integrity, Oversight and Recovery of Public Funds , during a special meeting on procedures for auditing government contracts, in the presence of the head of the Federal Financial Oversight Bureau, the head of the Federal Integrity Commission, the head of the Public Prosecution, and the judge of the Karkh Investigation Court specializing in integrity cases.
On Thursday (May 28, 2026), Al-Zaydi directed that an investigation be opened into a number of government contracts concluded during the government of Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani, within the framework of “combating corruption and protecting public funds.” He then met with Al-Sudani and discussed with him the completion of the formation of the government and support for development plans, without addressing the recent directives regarding the review of contracts. link

Frank26 There's a lot about the monetary reform of the Iraqi dinar that is being suppressed and not being told to you just yet...The next 72 hours is going to lay out a golden road map for [Iraq's] monetary reform. But first it must start with the seating of [al-Kaidi's] government.
Ross Iraq isn’t poor. It’s an oil superpower. 5th-largest proven reserves on Earth (147 billion barrels). Lowest production costs globally. Still HOLDing $100B in foreign reserves at the CBI. Iraq can’t keep borrowing forever when its real wealth (oil in the ground + reserves) is massive (but trapped). The key to the revaluation is unlocking the wealth. This crisis is the justification for the clean break: IQD revaluation to actual asset-backed levels — not the artificial low rate tied to the old model...
