A deputy refers to a strategic project and confirms: Iraq will have huge sums of money
Today, the representative of the Iraqi coalition, Jasim Al-Bakhati, indicated that a strategic project, if implemented, would draw huge sums of money to Iraq, explaining that the rail link with neighboring countries would kill the large port of Al-Faw.
Al-Bakhati said in a statement to “Tigris”, that “the rail link with neighboring countries will lead to the death of the large Faw port project, on which the state spent billions of dollars,” considering that “if this connection is made, it will indicate the government’s short-sightedness economically . ”
He added that “the alternative to railways and connectivity is to announce the dry canal linking from FAO to Turkey and Europe, and this strategic project will enter an additional budget, as about 200 dollars will be imposed on one ton of goods passing through Iraq, which are huge sums . ”
Al-Bakhati called on the House of Representatives to “halt any project that stands against the large port of Faw, whose profits are estimated after 20 years at about $ 100 billion, equivalent to Iraq’s oil budget, which no Sheriff can ever give up ”
