Iranian Products Flood Kurdistan Region Given their Cheap Prices

 For Iran, Iraq is deemed as a market for its goods and products, given the low value of Iraq’s currency and the disastrous economic reality in Iran in light of the US economic sanctions. Iranian merchants capitalized on the fact that Sulaymaniyah shares borders with Iran, by flooding the market with their products, not to mention that they evade paying taxes by selling there. Moreover, Sulaymaniyah is a tourist attraction for Iraqi people which makes it ideal for marketing their products.
