Iraq ·
Budget execution figures released by the Ministry of Finance cover the first nine months of 2026 and put the fiscal deficit at 32.858 trillion dinars.
Iraq's government budget depends heavily on oil export revenue, so fluctuations in revenue and spending largely determine the size of its deficit.
