Protecting local products: customs tariffs between the factory's interests and the consumer's pocket
Do customs tariffs raise prices for consumers, or do they protect Iraqi factories and farms? The programme talks to an industrialist, an economist and a member of the parliamentary economy committee about decisions to ban imports of goods that have a local alternative, the quality and competitiveness of national products, and the experience of countries that protected their industries without harming consumers.
