Iraq has lost some 36 billion dollars over six years
of war with Daesh, UNCTAD says.
Iraq lost about 36 billion dollars in the period
between 2013 until the end of 2018, UNCTAD said in a report released Thursday.
It attributed the losses to a state of political and
security instability in the Arab country, not to mention the ongoing war with
the Daesh terrorist group.
The Iraqi economy has suffered a sharp decline over
the past years due to political and security unrest, and regional wars, the
report added
