Tishwash:  The Iraqi government dismisses about 60 general directors in its ministries

Today, Tuesday, the Iraqi Prime Minister, Muhammad Shia'a Al-Sudani, approved a wide package of reform decisions, which included the approval of the dismissal of about 60 officials with the rank of director general in various ministries, as part of what he considered the first batch of a comprehensive change process in the positions of general managers in the country.

The decision, which is the first of its kind in terms of the number of dismissals of senior administrative positions in the country, came six months after the Sudanese government was granted confidence on October 27 last year.

The dismissal decisions included general managers in various ministries and agencies inside Baghdad and the various governorates of the country, which is likely to have taken place with a political consensus between the blocs and parties, as Al-Sudani seeks to avoid expected waves of protest with the onset of summer, especially with the continued poor supply of electricity and water to regions, especially in the cities of southern Iraq. most densely populated.

The researcher on Iraqi political affairs, Shaho Al-Qara Daghi, commented on the new decisions on his Twitter account that "the cabinet votes to dismiss the first batch of general managers, who failed to evaluate according to a set of criteria, with directives that replacements for general directors should be from ministries." the same, and that the partisan and political background should not affect the selection process.”

CandyKisses:  Iraq is the biggest reason for the decline in OPEC production

OPEC's oil production declined for the month of April, with Iraq's exports falling by 80% due to the suspension of a pipeline, at a time when a labor strike in Nigeria led to the cessation of its exports.

The volume of production decline from the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries reached about 310,28 barrels per day, reaching an average of 8.<> million barrels per day, the lowest level in almost a year, according to a survey by "Bloomberg".

Last month, OPEC and its allies announced new production cuts from this month to support global oil markets, but major changes in supply in April were not intended, and Iraq contributed about 80 percent of this decline.

The dispute between the central government in Baghdad and the Kurdistan Region has halted the pipeline, which normally transports 500,<> barrels per day to international markets via Turkey.

In Nigeria, the recovery in oil production during the last presidential election has faded after a labor action in the sector forced ExxonMobil to pull back shipments from several terminals last month.

However, reduced supplies from OPEC and its allies — both planned and occasional — have not significantly supported the oil market, which faces concerns about economic growth in China and the world at large.

Oil futures fell below $72 a barrel for U.S. crude and $75 for Brent, the lowest since March.

Production of the entire 23-nation OPEC+ alliance is expected to fall by an additional 1.2 million barrels per day this month as the new cuts take effect.

Russia, another member of the OPEC+ alliance, also announced production cuts in response to sanctions caused by its invasion of Ukraine, but the extent to which it will implement the move remains unclear.

It is noteworthy that a meeting of the "OPEC+" alliance is scheduled to be held on the fourth of next June, with the aim of reviewing production levels for the second half of the year.
