Nusayif calls to increase budget of MoD

Baghdad (IraqiNews.com) MP, Aliya Nusayif, of the Hurra Iraqiya bloc called the political blocs not to reduce the budget of the Ministry of Defense due to the internal and external challenges that Iraq is facing.

In a press statement received by IraqiNews.com, she said “The leaders of the political blocs must make the national internet more eminent than the personal one regarding the budget of the MoD.”

“The internal and external challenges that Iraq is facing resulted in killing and injuring dozens of the civilians where the budget of the MoD must be increased not decreased to face such challenges,” she added.

“The sides calling for reducing the MoD budget will hold the moral, historical responsibility if this call is approved,” she concluded.

Earlier, some sides called to reduce the budget of the MoD in 2013 General Budget where the Parliamentary Defense and Security Committee objected this call.
