Dependence on oil a main flaw in the economy

He further described tackling structural flaws and mismanagement problems in the country as an urgent necessity, adding that the dependence of the economy on oil, state ownership of the enterprises, and looking for solutions outside the country regardless of domestic potentials and inappropriate and imbalanced budgeting are the main flaws with the economy, which the Leader had mentioned in his statement. 211/103
