Sayyid Al-Hakeem Urges Supporting Contractors, Farmers, Securing Their Dues as Partners in Driving Economy
At the guesthouse of Al-Shammar tribe, the guesthouse of Governor Mr. Adnan Al-Shammari, His Eminence Sayyid Al-Hakeem, Head of the National State Powers' Alliance, met with a gathering of sheikhs and dignitaries of the Shammar tribe and the tribes of Diyala Governorate, pointing to the impact of the regional crisis on the country's economic reality as a result of the decline in oil production and export and the fall in prices due to the ongoing events, and commending all the efforts made to overcome this crisis. H.E. renewed the call to regard contractors and farmers as an economic priority like employees, given their role in securing food security, driving service projects, and providing job opportunities, and commended the payment of some of the farmers' dues despite the difficult economic situation.
H.E. held Iraqis responsible for managing their country's affairs after the end of the International Coalition's missions in Iraq, through sending messages of reassurance among themselves, not returning to previous squares, and protecting their diversity and plurality, regarding Diyala as a success story in peaceful coexistence and confronting terrorism, and stressing continuous vigilance and caution in facing security challenges, with the importance of coordinating with the security services.
H.E. called for deterring voices that provoke people on sectarian or nationalist grounds, and for adopting rhetoric that unites rather than divides and calms spirits, stressing visits and their exchange among the components, resolving the issue of the displaced, and zeroing out crises and problems.
