Clare: Ministry of Planning: More than 41 trillion dinars is the amount of money available to the governorates in 2024

5/25/2024

Today, Saturday, the Ministry of Planning revealed the total financial allocations and amounts available to the governorates during the current year 2024.

The Ministry explained, in a statement, a copy of which was received by {Al-Furat News}, that: “The allocations of the Regional Development Program and the undisbursed amounts, of which the amount of the remaining funds for the year 2023, registered as deposits with the Ministry of Finance, amounted to (6,947,433) trillion dinars, in addition to the remainder of Food security restricted deposits in the governorates (5,824,403) trillion dinars, totaling (15,875) trillion dinars, and this amount is added to the size of the investment allocations to the governorates within the 2024 budget submitted to the House of Representatives, amounting to (3,103,158), noting that these allocations include a development program Territories, petrodollars, anti-poverty, and loans.

She added, "In addition, what was allocated to the projects of the federal ministries that are implemented in the governorates, excluding the region, amounted to (38,421) trillion dinars, and thus the total amounts available to the governorates reach (41,524) trillion dinars."

The Ministry stressed that, “Based on the above, the comparison that appeared in the media, between the regional development allocations for the governorates, and the total investment spending for the Kurdistan region, is an incorrect comparison. Rather, the comparison should have been made between the total investment spending for the governorates coming from investment spending.” for the ministries, which amounts to (41,524) trillion dinars), and what has been allocated in the total investment spending for the region, which amounts to (4,875) trillion dinars,” stressing “the government’s commitment to the percentage allocated to the region, in all sections of spending.”

She pointed out, “Based on the Tripartite Budget Law (2023-2025) and the Financial Management Law of 2019, unspent amounts are recorded as deposits with the governorates or the Ministry of Finance, and local governments can spend them on projects in accordance with the mechanisms approved in this aspect, and these amounts are added to the allocations.” The financial allocations allocated to the governorates within the 2024 budget,” noting that “there are other amounts that will be allocated to the governorates, coming from the revenues of the border crossings, as most of the governorates enjoy this advantage, with the presence of land, air, or sea ports in them, as well as the financial allocations allocated to the funds in their various specializations, which are Funds for the reconstruction of Dhi Qar and Sinjar, the affected areas, and support for the poorest areas, amounting to about (2) trillion dinars.”

The Ministry added, “The indicators proven during previous years indicate that the highest percentage of spending for the governorates did not exceed more than (4.2) trillion dinars, during the year 2022, as the spending was made according to the actual work peaks with no budget approved in that year, and therefore the presence of... Of this large cash mass, available to the governorates, the spending units will not be able to spend more than 30% of it at best, according to the executive capabilities of the governorates.”

She stated, “The directives of Prime Minister Muhammad Shiaa Al-Sudani were always supportive of the efforts of local governments, enabling them to fulfill their financial obligations, complete their basic projects, and include new projects, noting that the House of Representatives transferred (4.7) trillion dinars in the budget.” Last year, 2023, from the Ministries of Electricity and Oil, to the governorate budgets in Table (E) as additional amounts to what the government allocated at the time, which was (5.2) trillion dinars, which forced the government and Parliament to borrow and set texts to add allocations to cover the transferred amounts, which increased the deficit resulting from this procedure".

The ministers confirmed that “the apparent differences in the allocations to the Kurdistan region include the sovereign investment budget, including licensing rounds for the Kurdistan region, amounting to (2.7) trillion dinars, which will not be spent to stop the export of oil from the region, according to the decision of the Federal Court, and that disbursem*nt to the Kurdistan region is conditional on the export of oil by ( SOMO) and hand over the region’s oil imports to the Ministry of Finance.” LINK

Clare: Government breakdown of 2024 budget schedules: Spending will contribute to reducing the deficit

5/25/2024Baghdad

The financial advisor to the Prime Minister, Mazhar Muhammad Saleh, confirmed today, Saturday, that the variables of the financial tables conform to the constants of the tripartite budget, while indicating that the spending pattern will contribute to reducing the deficit.

Saleh said, “The announcement of the financial schedule variables for the year 2024 was in accordance with the constants adopted by Law No. 13 of 2023, the Federal (Tripartite) General Budget Law, especially with regard to the hypothetical deficit, which amounts to approximately 64 trillion dinars.”
He explained: “There are important trends in the management of the public budget, whether in addition to public expenditures, as the spending ceiling reached 211 trillion dinars, or revenues and deficits.”

He pointed out that "oil prices are still higher than their estimates in the tripartite budget of $70 per barrel, with a positive change rate of more than 16 percent above the approved price, and we are approaching the middle of the fiscal year while maintaining the export rates approved in the budget and managing oil production efficiently and accurately." “In accordance with international agreements with OPEC regarding control over production quotas.”

He added: "There is high discipline in maximizing non-oil revenues, especially tax and customs revenues, specifically after adopting automation, modern methods and information technology in tax and customs assessment, estimation and collection."

He pointed to "striving to impose discipline on operational expenditures and keep spending on them within acceptable minimum limits, in addition to ensuring that the efficiency of investment spending and the operation of all approved projects is increased, in order to ensure a high growth rate in the gross domestic product at a rate exceeding twice the rate of population growth, by launching the project movement." New without delay or stop.

He stressed that “the pattern of public spending, in accordance with the schedules announced, is characterized by accuracy, objectivity, and self-savings, which contributes to reducing the resort to financing the actual deficit, even when needed, through internal borrowing and within limits that ultimately do not exceed the accepted international standard percentage for financing the deficit, which amounts to 3 percent.” of the country's total gross domestic product.

Frank26 Question: "What is the price of a bottle of co*ke in Iraq?" Way too much and that's why the prices are being adjusted and a new exchange rate will come out to match the new or lower denominations.

PompeyPeter If for one second the new rate had been shown the Council of Ministers, the parliamentary Finance Committee or the House of Representatives we would have heard them singing and dancing and cheering from Iraq. We certainly would have seen it from the CBI first. What happened then? ...As they've said, the amendments were viewed and passed by the Council of Ministers, the amendments of the 2024 budget were then passed to HOR via the Parliamentary Finance Committee...We definitely know the rate hasn't been exposed.

Experts: Banking Habits You Should Change in Retirement

Jordan Rosenfeld Sat, May 25, 2024

While retirement is often a time when you finally get to stop thinking so hard about many of the little details in life, there are some you want to stay on top of, like your banking habits.

Some of your pre-retirement banking habits may not be as useful, protective or financially savvy after retirement.

Experts explain some banking habits you might still be doing that you’ll want to change in retirement.

Wealthy people know the best money secrets. Learn how to copy them.

Not Saving More Than Before

Retirees should consider having more money in a bank account than they did while they were working and earning an income, according to Chris Urban, CFP, a retirement planner and founder of Discovery Wealth Planning.

“These days, high-yield savings accounts are a good place to earn a reasonable amount of interest while also having access to your cash. These accounts are a great way to insulate your household from the ups and downs of the financial markets, where your other retirement and investment accounts may be invested,” Urban said.

Not Keeping Cash Liquid

Consider taking your spending money from this high-yield savings account and replenishing it in a tax-efficient way from your retirement and/or investment accounts in years when they have performed well, Urban explained.

“Sure, you might have what is referred to as ‘cash drag’ by holding too much in cash; however, in my opinion, retirement is much more about optimizing your overall happiness and life than it is about optimizing for investment performance,” he said.

Holding On to High-Fee Accounts

Retirees should steer clear of accounts with high fees, including maintenance fees, overdraft fees and ATM fees, according to Taylor Kovar, CFP, founder and CEO of 11 Financial.

“These fees can eat into retirement savings over time. Instead, consider switching to fee-free or low-fee accounts to minimize expenses and maximize savings,” he said.

Do your research and shop around different banks and credit unions to find accounts with low or no fees, added Lyle D. Solomon, Esq., an attorney who specializes in personal finance issues such as debt relief, taxes and estate planning at Oak View Law Group. “Don’t hesitate to switch if you find a much better deal elsewhere,” he said.

Using Non-Bank ATMs

Retirees should also be mindful of using non-bank ATMs, which often charge hefty fees for withdrawals, Kovar said.

CandyKisses: Ending the UNAMI Mission Marks a Step for Iraq Regaining Full Sovereignty

Farhad Alaaldin-The Iraqi Prime Minister's Advisor for Foreign Affairs

Saturday - 25 May 2024

In a formal letter, dated 8 May 2024 and addressed to the United Nations Secretary-General, Antonio Guterres, Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammad Shia al-Sudani called for “ending the mandate of the United Nation’s Assistance Mission in Iraq (UNAMI) on 31 December 2025", emphasizing that "after more than 20 years of democratic transition and overcoming great and diverse challenges, the justifications for a political mission in Iraq are no longer present".

This letter was delivered in time, by the Iraqi Charge d'Affaires at the United Nations, before the Security Council (SC)’s scheduled meeting on 30 May 2024, to vote on UNAMI's fate. Iraq is not a member of the Council, however, it will be difficult for the existing SC members to ignore the wishes of an elected Government of Iraq.

The strategic review

In May 2023, Iraq made a formal request to the SC to reduce the UNAMI mandate. In response, the Council set up a three-man committee, headed by Volker Perthes of Germany, to carry out a “Strategic Review” of UNAMI's mandate, based on the SC resolution 2682 (2023). The committee visited Iraq in Nov 2023 and conducted 250 interviews with various stakeholders, including the Federal Government, the Kurdistan Regional Government, political parties, civil society organizations, think tanks and the UNAMI staff all over Iraq. They also reviewed the papers and work of UNAMI both in Iraq and New York, before submitting their report to the Secretary General in Feb 2024.

The ‘Perthes’ report unequivocally acknowledged the progress made in Iraq, and that: "the Iraqi political system has, at least over the past eighteen months, increasingly demonstrated its ability to manage crises". It further adds "no UN political mission should stay in a country forever. Prolonged third-party presence may discourage local solutions and national ownership". Perthes therefore recommend that “the Mission begin to transfer its functions to national institutions and the United Nations country team in a responsible, orderly and progressive manner within an agreed time frame."

Thus, both the Iraqi Government and Perthes’ Strategic Review agree on ending the mission, with a slight variation in the timing and process, as the Iraqis want to end the mission by Dec 2025 with an immediate winding down and switching the focus away from the political file, to "economic reform, service provision, sustainable development, and climate change”. Perthes’ report, however, recommends ending the mission by June 2026 while keeping the political files with a gradual weaning process.

Iraq facing its own challenges

This year will see the end of three significant missions in Iraq that were all set up under various Security Council Resolutions, namely the UNITAD, the UNAMI and the International Coalition to fight ISIS. As a result, Iraq will be a step closer to taking full responsibility for its destiny as a confident and fully sovereign state. Critics might see the ending of these missions, all in one go, leading to Iraq’s isolation. However, the Iraq of 2024 is not the same Iraq of 2003 when the regime collapsed, or the Iraq of 2014 when ISIS ripped through the country and took over one-third of it. Today’s Iraq is more stable, confident and forward looking.

Iraq is now seeking to confront its own challenges directly, but with international cooperation. Many of the key challenges have persisted for over two decades when the UNAMI was operational in the country. Clearly the issues are complex but experience shows that solutions come primarily from within, as acknowledged and encouraged by the Strategic Review Report. The report emphasized that "ownership of these issues is now in the hands of Iraqi institutions. They have the capability to advocate for peace and stability within the country and with external actors." Indeed, such capability was vividly illustrated in Kirkuk, where the Prime Minister presided over the meetings of the various political parties to hold Kirkuk provincial elections, which have not taken place since 2005. Another example is the border security agreement signed with Iran, and the Strategic Cooperation Agreement signed with Türkiye to deal with the most difficult challenges relating to both Water and Security.

Thank you UNAMI

The Iraqi Government deeply appreciates the UNAMI and other UN agencies' positive roles in Iraq over the past two decades. In a statement issued on May 12, the Iraqi Government expressed "gratitude to UN Secretary-General Mr. Antonio Guterres, the Special Representative of the UN Secretary-General in Iraq, Ms. Jeanine Hennis-Plasschaert, and all UNAMI staff for their support over the past years." Undoubtedly, Ms. Hennis-Plasschaert’s dynamic and energetic engagement and significant contributions to Iraq have been instrumental and widely acknowledged.

However, many critics within Iraq often highlight the failure of UNAMI to execute some of its mandates over the past two decades, despite ample national and international support. Some go as far as accusing the UNAMI of systematically ignoring the shortcomings of Iraq’s political system, the widespread election fraud and human rights abuses that the Iraqi government itself had recognized. It was during the UNAMI’s presence that Al-Qaeda flourished, ISIS invaded the country, violence erupted in the aftermath of the Kurdish Referendum of independence and Iraq suffered the worst political deadlock after the 2021 election which led to the withdrawal of the Sadrist Movement from the political process. Other outstanding processes that fall within the UNAMI’s mandate that remain unaccomplished, include the Kuwaiti’s missing persons and national archives in Iraq, the implementation of the Sinjar agreement and the failure of Kurdistan Region to hold general elections for two years.

That said, the Iraqi Prime Minister firmly believes that these ongoing issues can only be resolved through national efforts, by bringing together Iraq’s political leaders to hammer out practical solutions. This is exactly what recently led to breakthroughs in Baghdad – Erbil cooperation, and the holding of Iraq’s first and most peaceful provincial elections since 2013.

Furthermore, Iraq is going to ask for UN help in some of the files, such as elections, Iraq would seek UN help with a team of experts to provide technical support as they have done in the past, however, such help would be temporary and only for the duration of the election process. Another example would be the continuation of the tri-partite process of the Kuwait file, where the Iraqi government will work diligently to conclude this file with the help of the International Red Cross and technical support of the UN if needed.

The future

PM Al-Sudani has frequently asserted that “the guiding principle” of his foreign policy is "Iraq first", via building strong partnerships based on common interests with friendly countries in the region and beyond. Iraq will work with all its international partners to forge bilateral alliances that help its security and stability, and will open up to business and economic partnerships. Signing the Development Road agreement with Türkiye, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates is a good example of using economic opportunities as launching pads for future regional cooperation.

The Iraqi government is working hard on addressing the three areas of concern that is highlighted in Perthes’ Strategic Review, where he concludes that “the stability of Iraq today is fundamentally threatened by three phenomena: (a) the fragility of institutions; (b) the proliferation of armed actors; and (c) the potential for the emergence of a new ISIS or other forms of terrorism and violent extremism.”

Significant strides have been achieved in bolstering the institutions, fighting corruption and depoliticizing the institutional leadership positions. On the proliferation of armed actors, the Prime Minister made it clear that “these groups grew out of the complex circ*mstances that Iraq encountered while confronting terrorism. But little by little, as security and stability are restored, the need for weapons outside the control of the state and its institutions will disappear. We are working concertedly toward that end”. As for terrorism and violent extremism, the Iraqi government believes that ISIS is now defeated and no longer poses a threat to the state of Iraq. Its comeback is rendered even more difficult by the enhanced capability of Iraqi security forces, the new stability that Iraq enjoys, and the economic boom which no part of Iraq is feeling left out.

Iraq is now poised to play the pivotal role it is destined to play in the region, and regaining its sovereignty is the first step. Ending international missions such as UNAMI will strengthen Iraq further by relying on its own institutional capacities to tackle the various challenges it continues to face.

CandyKisses: Iraq announces investments amounting to about $1.5 billion

Economy News - Baghdad

Today, Friday, the Iraq Fund for Development outlined three achievements it has achieved since its founding, while announcing investments amounting to about $1.5 billion.

The Executive Director of the Iraq Fund for Development, Advisor to the Prime Minister for Investment Affairs, Muhammad al-Najjar, said, “Since its establishment less than a year ago, the Fund has achieved three achievements, the first of which is: signing 17 memorandums of understanding with 17 different companies (Saudi, British, and American) to enter into... Iraq".

Al-Najjar added, "The value of the total investments achieved by these memorandums approached one and a half billion dollars," pointing out that "these imports for the first time enter Iraq, not in the field of energy, but in the field of industry, agriculture, and gas production, that is, industrial gases."

He pointed out that "the second achievement was the launch of the investment schools project, and applications were submitted to build 2,000 schools through investment, and the state rents them from investors, which saves huge sums of money, since for the price of 100 schools we can build 1,000 schools in a much shorter period of time than was thought." That is, school crises will be resolved as quickly as possible.”

He continued: “As for the third achievement, it represented the launch of social projects for the first time, such as building schools and so on, implemented through the private sector, and for the first time we can attract the private sector to this number and this number of investments related to the state, which is considered a fundamental change that the government and the Fund have succeeded in establishing.” For him, under the government of Prime Minister Muhammad Shia al-Sudani.”

He pointed out that "there is an international desire to enter the fund, but our tendency is for participation to be through companies investing in Iraq, and not directly in the fund, because the fund has the peculiarity of being financed from the general budget and subject to the laws of the Iraqi state."

He stated that "funds and companies often prefer to operate under the laws of the private sector, so we have attracted investments for companies," stressing that "the amount of investments that entered compared to the fund's capital is very large."

He concluded by saying: "We are currently working according to the rule that for every dinar we attract ten dinars, meaning that if a trillion is allocated, we try to set investment rates worth ten trillion dinars in return."

Note: All intel should be considered as "Rumors" until we receive official announcements ...and “Rates and Dates” could change anytime until we get to the banks/redemption centers.

Global Currency Reset: (RUMORS)

On Fri. 24 May TNT sent out a cryptic message that the 800#s were coming out for Tier4b (Us, the Internet Group) to set redemption appointments.

Fri. 24 May MarkZ: “There is high expectation from the individual Bond Holders that they will go over this weekend. From a contractor: In-country Dinar Rate was said to be around $3.99, Dong around $3.”

A Contact at a Redemption Center said Tier4b (Us, the Internet Group) would get emails to set appointments over the weekend.

Thurs. 23 May 2024 Bruce felt it was likely that we won’t get the 800 numbers to make appointments until Tues. 28 May, and could begin exchanging on Wed. 29 May.

Fri. 24 May Wolverine: “From my Brazilian contact: We are waiting for an official order to release funds and payment order. This will happen at any time, please wait…as of today we have nothing official. Things are moving guys. The greatest transfer of wealth has started T1 and T2 have been completed and a very positive Mark Z message today! He’s saying he’s hearing Individual Bond Holders expecting to receive big Payments now! First time I’ve heard him talking about Individuals rather than Groups/ Platforms.”

Thurs. 23 May 2024 Wolverine Here’s a helpful update: My friend has given me permission to share information with you. Remember, she has a relative who is an MP from a Middle Eastern county and he sits on a committee that oversees the timing of the event.

Anonymous Friend: Ginger, I was just informed (by a relative in the Middle East; Ginger is hiding the location for security) that there are 7,000 payers in Tier 3 who are being paid before Tier 4B distribution goes live. This will happen over the next 10 to 14 days.

However, in the meantime the public will be prepared for many things, such as: gold-backed USN, debt forgiveness, increases in SSI, and other benefits.

Also keep in mind that the absolute back wall is the 4th of July, so a lot has to happen quickly for us to reach our day of redemption.

Tues. 21 May 2024 Unknown Source: “Banks in the USA will close on the 24th and until May 27th (Monday) they will be offline, without credit cards and without access to 24-hour banking. It will be the beginning of AES – EMERGENCY ALERT SYSTEM and on Tues. 28 May 2024, some banks and companies will no longer open.

Thurs. 23 May 2024 Happy Welsh Guy:

Tony is quite correct the RV will happen soon, but not yet. This is what is really happening. There is a carefully, orchestrated plan in effect, that is being meticulously monitored.

Tier # 1 and Tier # 2 is currently being financially hydrated.

When this is completed to the satisfaction of the Alliance then and only then willTier # 3be financially hydrated.

When Tier 3 is completed to the satisfaction of the Alliance then and only then willTier # 4 (US) the internet groupbe financially hydrated.

Everything is currently“On Track”and moving to expectation.

If everything continues to expectation, thenTier # 4should be financially on or aboutJUNE 15th with a back wall of July 4th.

It is“NOT”going to happentoday, tomorrow or this month. However, Tony is right. It will be our timesoon. Nothing will stop this except for a 911 type event.

My source actually sits on a special committee formatted for the very specific purpose of the timing of the revaluation to take place.

June 15th is not that far away so remain patient and be in expectation

Fri. 24 May 2024 Goldilocks: “A Bank just told us they are going to move onto the QFS. First action date: June 21, 2024 before 3:00 p.m. MT. Second action date: June 24, 2024 for the remaining steps. It is important to note that this is just one bank’s timeline, but I can’t help from notice that this one is before the June 30th, 2024 laws that are taking effect on Crypto regulations and Stable Coins at the end of the month.”

Deepwoodz On the contracts...The way I see it, the two most important factors are 1) the guarantee's, and 2) the fact that these countries and contractors have faith in Iraq to pay for the work they are doing. Let’s say I want to do an electrical contract for Iraq. I want 1 million dollars for it. I don’t care what the exchange rate is as long as the payment I receive is worth 1 million DOLLARS. They are using dinar to pay...since January 1...A sovereign nation must use sovereign currency to pay their debts or they are in violation of the multi currency practices(MCP) that the IMF abhors. [Post 1 of 2....stay tuned]

Deepwoodz Using the current rate, I would be owed 1,310,000,000 dinar. Actually, the banking system will do the conversions automatically. I won’t even see any dinar. I will receive dollars in my American account. Or euros in my European account. Or pesos in my Mexican account ...using whatever exchange rate belongs to the country involved. Like I said,
doesn’t matter to me as long as the rate translates into my 1 million dollars. Now, the importance of these guarantees and the fact that corporations are pouring in to do work after all these years. They now know Iraq is serious about paying their debts...[and] have the means to make good on their payments. [Post 2 of 2]

Silver broke above $30 last week and has held that level ever since. Silver is the "people's money." In the past, when the people wake up and lose faith in a paper currency system, silver moves dramatically higher, says Rafi Farber.

No matter how much power the bankers have, "we have much more power than them because there is just so much more of us. When we wake up, we really bring silver up there."

Iraq Economic News and Points To Ponder Late Friday Evening 5-24-24

The Dollar Is Leaking”... Central Bank Sales In Numbers And An Expert Raises Several Questions

Time: 05/24/2024 Read: 2,054 times {Economic: Al-Furat News} An economic expert raised several questions regarding the Central Bank of Iraq’s dollar sales and their comparison with previous years.

Manar Al-Obaidi said in a statement, a copy of which was received by {Al-Furat News}, “By reviewing the Central Bank’s sales of the dollar, both cash and remittances, it is noted that the bank’s sales of foreign currency cash to the local market were not greatly affected in 2023, which is the year in which the crisis of American restrictions on dollar sales began.” ".

He added, "According to Central Bank data on foreign currency sales to local markets, the value of dollar cash sales in 2023, the year of the dollar crisis, amounted to 8.4 billion US dollars, noting that the average foreign currency sales of the dollar from 2006 until 2022 amounted to 6.1 billion dollars."

He pointed out that “the Central Bank’s sales of cash are higher than the average sales of the Central Bank over all the past years, and the ratio of cash sales to total foreign currency sales in 2023 was 25%, while the average ratio of cash sales to total foreign currency sales was over Extension of years (2006-2022) 18.7%.

Al-Obaidi stated, “What actually decreased and was affected were the Central Bank’s sales of dollars through the remittance window, as the value of the Central Bank’s sales through the remittance window for the past year amounted to 25 billion dollars, while the average foreign exchange sales of dollars from 2006 until 2022 was 31 billion US dollars and amounted to The highest value of the Central Bank’s sales from the remittance window in 2019, amounting to 45 billion dollars.”

He explained, "From these numbers, it is clear that what affects the exchange rate in the local market is the decrease or increase in the Central Bank's sales of foreign currency through the remittance window, and not cash sales, which were not greatly affected over the previous years."

The economic expert pointed out, “Based on these numbers, two questions arise. The first is: If the majority of the Central Bank’s sales of foreign currency over the years from 2006 to 2023 were through the remittance window, at a rate of 84% of the Central Bank’s total sales, then what is the source of foreign currency?”

Which was available in the local markets? Why was the parallel exchange rate affected by the remittance sales window if the demand was to cover the internal need, given that the remittance window sales deliver hard currency outside Iraq?

He said, "The sales of the Central Bank through the cash window from 2006 until 2023 amounted to more than 113 billion US dollars, and where was this mass of hard currency consumed? Was it all consumed outside Iraq to cover the travel expenses of Iraqis? Or was it done to cover specific types of merchants that were not Can you enter the external transfer window, or was it used for other purposes?

Al-Obaidi continued, "These data and questions require a deep analysis to know what the foreign currency cycle is in Iraq and who is responsible for the continued demand for it in the local market despite the high remittance window. Does Iraq really need cash sales of the dollar amounting to $9 billion annually, and what are the reasons for this demand? Is it really to cover foreign trade with countries that are prohibited from dealing with?

The Central Bank's management plans to gradually cancel the dollar auction during the year 2024, leading to its complete cancellation by the end of the year, and to maintain it for audit and statistical purposes, in an effort to enable Iraqi banks to establish and establish solid banking relationships with the global and regional banking sector in order to achieve the sobriety of the Iraqi banking sector and full commitment. According to international standards and requirements.

Iraq relies on the platform for selling currency directly to local banks and companies, which was previously known as the daily dollar auction, as one of the mechanisms for preserving the value of the Iraqi dinar and combating speculative operations in the parallel market. LINK

The Government Reveals The New Formula For Dealing With The United Nations: UNAMI's Work Will End Politically

Political | 05/24/2024 Today, Friday, government spokesman Bassem Al-Awadi revealed the new formula for dealing with the United Nations, stressing that the work of the UNAMI mission will end on the political side.

Al-Awadi said in a statement, “The UNAMI mission was formed in the eighth month of 2003, after the overthrow of the former regime, the presence of the international coalition, and the absence of a government, but rather a governing council carrying out its new work in Iraq,” indicating that “the idea is for the United Nations to send a group of Experts to provide advice in the areas of political, transitional justice, social reconciliation, etc., in order to help the Iraqi government and provide advice, consultations and opinions, and they are considered as advisors to the government.”

He added, "Dossiers have been identified for these experts, most notably supporting the government politically, especially with the formation of the government, elections, the relationship with the Kurdistan region, the Kirkuk issue, the conflict of the components, the formation of parliament, support for the judicial and legal framework, independent bodies and civil society organizations, in addition to providing advice and assistance regarding border disputes, whether with Iran."

Or Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, or Jordan," and the work continued because the conditions in Iraq at the time required such assistance.

He continued, "The mission worked in Iraq and provided great services to the Iraqi people, and tried to push towards the stability of the political process, and submitted important reports to the United Nations. ”

On the basis of which important decisions were issued to support successive Iraqi governments, the political process, and the Iraqi people,” he explained, explaining that “the Iraqi government and people remember these great services, and they will remain immortal in Iraqi memory, and we will not forget the painful incident, which was the first explosion to which the United Nations building was exposed at that time.”

He stated that “Prime Minister Muhammad Shiaa Al-Sudani thanked all the figures who received UNAMI up to Jenin-Plasschaert on behalf of the government and the Iraqi people,” explaining that “this case has been going on for 21 years.”

Therefore, if we say that the previous post-2003 Iraqi governments needed some assistance, then the Iraqi government in recent years has become mature and political experience has accumulated, and Iraqi institutions are moving towards specialization, professionalism and exercising full roles, and we have active figures and senior political experts.”

He pointed out that "the state has developed and stabilized during the last two years, as the government manages internal and external political affairs entirely through official institutions. As an example, the parties in Kirkuk Governorate are now asking the Prime Minister to be the guarantor in the process of selecting the governor," in arranging affairs. This file.

He continued, "The security agreement that was concluded with Iran dealt with important aspects. The Iraqi government was the one who concluded it, in addition to developing relations with Turkey, the latest of which was President Erdogan's recent visit to Iraq," pointing out that "the process of forming the government was managed by the Iraqi parties themselves without the need for assistance."

“And developing the relationship with the Kurdistan region, which is carried out through the leadership of Erbil and Sulaymaniyah with the head of government in Baghdad, represented by the Prime Minister.”

He stated that "what is related to the political aspect is that it has become a state of stability, and countries are dealing directly with the Iraqi government," pointing out that "all political forces believe that we have reached a stage of political maturity in which we can give thanks to the UNAMI mission, the United Nations, and the ability of the Iraqis to manage files." politics themselves.

He stressed that "the United Nations Mission (UNAMI) has two tasks in Iraq. The first is the political work that was mentioned, and the second has non-political work, which is providing support in the elections, in the human rights file, in development issues, consultations, and other aspects," adding, "We do not want to dispense with it." About services and relations with the United Nations, but we want to focus on the political aspect and end the mission.”

He pointed out that "Iraq will request the support of the United Nations in the files of human rights, elections, development, and everything in which we need an international role later."

Regarding the human rights file, Al-Awadi stressed, "We need the United Nations to be present and to help with this, and in the climate and environment file."

And other files, but in a new format that includes not having a permanent presence inside Iraq, but it is possible to form committees for a certain period that will come to Iraq and participate in this file and then after that their work will end, without the need for a committee present in Iraq to submit an annual report to the United Nations

. Until “the Iraqi government’s proposal is for UNAMI to remain until after the next parliamentary elections, because the government requested that the last period of the mission’s presence be December 31, 2025, and that the next parliamentary elections are in the month of November, and thus the mission will be present in the elections in accordance with the request.”

The Iraqi government,” explaining that “if the mission is forced to be dissolved before this date, the Iraqi government will be the one that will submit a request to the United Nations to form a specialized committee for elections that will come to assist the Independent High Electoral Commission and supervise, monitor, and then certify the results of the parliamentary elections, as this is necessary for the political process and the government.” ".

He pointed out that “the United Nations’ ratification of the election results is international legitimacy,” pointing out that “Iraqi governments have always enjoyed international legitimacy in every election, most notably the government of Muhammad Shiaa al-Sudani, which enjoyed great popular and international acceptance and support.”

He stressed, "We are keen to have an international committee that helps, monitors and works jointly with the Supreme Independent Election Commission." https://www.mawazin.net/Details.aspx?jimare=248572
