FILE - In this Dec. 8, 2019 file photo, a protester rests by a mural with Arabic that reads, "I want my oil," in Baghdad, Iraq. The historic crash in oil prices in the wake of the novel coronavirus pandemic is reverberating across the Middle East as crude-dependent countries scramble to offset losses from a key source of state revenue. Iraq faces the most dire situation, and officials are trying to find ways to cut spending. Iraq saw massive protests the past months by a populace angry over the weak economy and rampant corruption -- and the turmoil could erupt again. (AP Photo/Nasser Nasser, File)
