How Falling Oil Prices Are Hindering Iraq’s Ability to Fight Islamic State
Wall Street Journal 03/11/2015
The older oil fields in the Basra region in the south need major investments to offset declining production. Oil production in the Kurdish region in the north has suffered from the invasion by Islamic State. Oil prices at $56 in the budget leave a deficit of $20 billion for Iraq. Iraq needs a price over $100 to balance the budget. An alternative is for Iraq to issue $10-15 billion in bonds for much needed investments in oil fields. Iraq depends on western oil companies for investment and modernization, yet many of these companies have not been paid for earlier work.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
