MP calls to stop growing migration of Iraqi youth abroad

Baghdad (IraqiNews.com) Member of the parliamentary Migration & Displacement Committee, MP Liqa Wardi, warned from increasing the migration of the Iraqi youth from the country, noting “their migration will negatively affect Iraq.”

Wardi told Iraqi News (IraqiNews.com) “The Iraqi youth have desire to depart Iraq for economic reasons since they suffer from lack of job opportunities and well-being,” pointing out that “The world countries welcome the Iraqi youth to take advantage of their skills.”

“The Iraqi Ministry of Migration & Displacement could not halt the youth’s migration abroad because it did not set a thorough plan for this purpose,” she concluded.
