Iraq President Abdul Latif Rashid claims country’s corruption has decreased – BBC News


Corruption in Iraq has “decreased” over the last two years, Iraq’s President Abdul Latif Rashid has said.

In his first English-speaking TV interview since taking office in October, President Abdul Latif Rashid spoke about the new period of relative “peace and stability” Iraq is experiencing.

When asked about reports of entrenched “corruption and political patronage” in the nation, he said “serious action” has been taken against corruption.

Twenty years since US troops invaded Iraq, the country’s president has said it is now turning a new page.

On the question of maintaining bilateral Iran relations without violating US sanctions against Iran, he said the balance of the relationship was not “complicated more than with any other countries”.
