The most famous content producers on YouTube, including artists, media professionals, and other prominent social media figures, recently visited Iraq.
BAGHDAD — Famous YouTubers, including artists, singers and travel enthusiasts, have recently been coming to Iraq from around the world, roaming around in various cities and regions of the country.
During 2021 and the first half of 2022, over a dozen YouTubers and dozens of famous Arab singers visited Iraq and extensively posted on their social media accounts about their stays.
They came from Denmark, the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, Egypt, Lebanon, Kuwait, and other Western and Arab countries.
Such visits contribute to changing the stereotype about Iraq, which is depicted by foreign media as an unstable country and a land of terrorists following the decades of wars and conflict Iraq has been through.
