OPEC Secretary General, HE Mohammad Sanusi Barkindo, passed away yesterday in his home country Nigeria. He was the much-loved leader of the OPEC Secretariat and his passing is a profound loss to the entire OPEC Family, the oil industry and the international community.
The #IraqEnergy Forum is in session in Baghdad, again. I was in the last forum in 2019, but couldn’t make it this time.
One of the most significant events in Iraq & the region, per level of official, academic & business attendance.
Kudos to Dr. @AL_Khatteeb & @IraqEnergy. (1)
.@MarsinRA: The problem in Iraq isn’t just about education. We unfortunately have many tribal customs that restrict women’s freedom and mobility even when they are educated and have jobs. Some cultural practices, like child marriages, are becoming even more prevalent. #IraqEnergy
We’re excited to host the 6th #IraqEnergy Forum, our first since the COVID-19 global pandemic, at @auibaghdad.
Join us over the next 3 days as we discuss energy opportunities in Iraq, the region and the world with policy makers, experts and investors.

.@MarsinRA: Research suggest a connection between rentierism and women’s empowerment, and this isn’t just a problem in Iraq: when states take away citizen’s rights to demand change because they pay no tax, that disproportionately affects women #IraqEnergy
