The Interior Minister of Iraq has announced that the country has fired over 60,000 employees suspected of corruption. Such a move may be aimed at making the Iraqi democracy more accountable as stability sets in. While some of these firings may be politically motivated, it seems to be a step in the right direction.

“We’ve tackled corruption by firing 62,000 employees and begun to dismantle sectarianism by prohibiting all political activity by police officers and creating a force made up of all Iraqis, Shiite, Sunni and Kurd,” Bolani wrote in his opinion piece in The Tribune.
