In a recent report, experts from the United Nations forecast that the global economy will grow by 2.8% in 2025, reflecting a degree of optimism despite the volatile geopolitical conditions surrounding global markets. This forecast comes amid several challenges, including ongoing regional conflicts, rising concerns about climate change, and supply chain disruptions.

For Iraq, any global economic growth could present an opportunity to boost its oil and gas exports, especially if prices rise due to increasing global demand. Economic analysts suggest that Iraq should capitalize on this phase by supporting infrastructure development and encouraging foreign direct investment.
