Guest on Badr-aligned Watan TV backs salaries despite zero revenue

WHAT HAPPENED

On 6 September, Watan TV (Badr Organization — affiliated) quoted Safwan Qusay saying the government faced financial “suffocation” and corrupt actors opposed selling state assets. He subsequently said Iraq should pursue social welfare rather than merely paying salaries and could maintain salary payments even with zero revenue. The captions supplied no funding mechanism, assets, prospective buyers or salary category.

    The government administration faces financial suffocation, and corrupt people stand in the way of selling its assets.

    اختناق مالي يواجه ادارة الحكومة .. والفاسدون يقفون بوجه بيع أصولها

    Iraq should think about societal welfare, not merely paying salaries; even with zero revenue, we would not be unable to pay them.

    العراق يجب أن يفكر برفاهية المجتمع لا بتسديد الرواتب.. وحتى بإيرادات صفر لن نعجز عن دفعها
