Sir,
Away from typical diplomatic talks - We sincerely hope that the Baroness conveyed a clear message to HE about the struggles that her IBBC's members face everyday in Iraq; starting from visa issue, oilfield passes, taxation hurdles etc.
Hopefully the PM and his cabinet will listen to her and pay more attention for reforms ASAP.
We urge GOI to take notice of these concerns and take serious actions
reforms are urgently needed for the sake of Iraq pls
