Shafaq News- Baghdad

Iraq won an international
arbitration case filed by French telecommunications company Orange, avoiding
potential compensation payments estimated at $800 million, the Ministry of
Justice announced on Monday.

The ministry said the arbitration
panel rejected all claims brought by the company against the Republic of Iraq
and the Communications and Media Commission (CMC), while ordering Orange to pay
$10 million to Iraq to cover legal fees and related expenses.

Between 2023 and 2025, Iraq won 32
legal and arbitration cases, resulting in combined recoveries of about $2.6
billion and €40 million.
