Corruption and security
‘I have to admit, corruption [has] existed… Some brigades of the army, the numbers should be
many thousands. But in reality, because of corruption, the real number is 1,000 or 1,500.
And the rest are fictitious names just to get salaries.’
Iraqi President Fuad Massum, Council on Foreign Relations, September 2014
