The reason for postponing the vote on the cabinet today has been revealed

 The reason for postponing the vote on the cabinet today has been revealed

Former MP Abdul Hadi Al-Saadawi revealed on Sunday the reasons for postponing the vote on the cabinet in the House of Representatives, attributing this to the failure of some political blocs to decide on their candidates for ministerial portfolios, which led to the inability to vote on the government formation today.

Al-Saadawi told Al-Furat News Agency, “It was likely that the Al-Zidi government would be given confidence today in the House of Representatives after all preparations were completed; however, the vote was postponed as a result of some political blocs not deciding on their candidates for the ministries.”

He added that "it is too early to announce the completion of the cabinet due to the existence of disagreements between the political blocs," indicating that "the absence of a fully empowered government is having a negative impact on the country."

Al-Saadawi pointed out that "there are major obstacles facing the prime minister-designate, even from within the coordination framework and the rest of the national space, which requires more consultation and effort to convince the blocs to proceed with presenting the cabinet and voting on it within the House of Representatives."

He pointed out that "Al-Zidi has a strong incentive to complete his cabinet through consultation and understanding with various political forces."

Regarding the challenges facing the new government, Al-Saadawi explained that "the first of these is the financial file," expecting "its move towards raising the exchange rate of the dinar to reduce the deficit in the 2026 budget," considering "this a difficult decision in addition to the security challenges in the region, especially the American-Iranian war and the repercussions it imposes on the country."

He concluded by saying that "the next government needs a clear economic and security vision to keep Iraq away from the region's conflicts."  link

💱 Decoding the Three Zeros: Redenomination or a Path Toward Potential Future Revaluation?

💱 Decoding the Three Zeros: Redenomination or a Path Toward Potential Future Revaluation? 🚀📊

The discussion around removing zeros from a currency often blends technical monetary reform with expectations of economic revaluation. However, when analyzed through structural reforms, banking modernization, and macroeconomic fundamentals, it becomes clearer how such changes may indirectly support long-term currency stability and potential strength.


🧩 1. “Removing zeros” ≠ increasing real value

A redenomination is primarily a technical and accounting reform, not a direct increase in currency value.

✔ Simplifies pricing and accounting systems
✔ Reduces numerical complexity after inflation episodes
✔ Improves banking and financial infrastructure efficiency

❗ However, it does not automatically increase purchasing power or exchange value.


📈 2. Technical adjustment vs. real currency revaluation

A true revaluation occurs when a currency gains value in foreign exchange markets due to real economic improvements such as:

  • Fiscal and monetary stability
  • Controlled inflation
  • Productive economic growth
  • Strong institutional credibility
  • Improved balance of payments

💡 In other words, it is not a cosmetic change, but a fundamental shift in economic strength.


🏦 3. The REER framework: understanding real competitiveness

The Real Effective Exchange Rate (REER) is a key indicator for measuring a currency’s real strength relative to its trading partners.

REER=NEER×PdomPext

📊 When REER strengthens sustainably:

  • The economy becomes less inflation-distorted
  • External competitiveness improves or stabilizes
  • Investor confidence tends to increase

🏗️ 4. Banking modernization and structural reform

Financial system upgrades and banking modernization can play an important indirect role:

✔ Increased transparency and regulatory efficiency
✔ Reduced reliance on cash-based or informal systems
✔ Improved integration with global financial networks
✔ Better monetary policy transmission mechanisms

📌 While these reforms do not directly revalue a currency, they enhance trust and economic credibility, which are essential long-term drivers of currency strength.


🛢️ 5. Diversifying income sources: building resilience

When an economy reduces dependence on a single revenue stream (such as oil) and expands non-oil income:

  • Fiscal volatility decreases
  • Government stability improves
  • Long-term planning becomes more reliable

📊 This creates a more stable macroeconomic environment that supports currency fundamentals over time.


🌍 6. Can this lead to future revaluation?

From a purely economic perspective, the most accurate interpretation is:

👉 If structural reforms continue consistently
👉 If inflation remains controlled
👉 If institutions gain credibility
👉 If financial integration increases

💡 Then a currency may experience gradual strengthening of its real value over time, but this is never automatic or guaranteed.


⚖️ Conclusion

Removing zeros is a technical reform.
Revaluation is an economic outcome.

Between them lies the real driver of currency strength:
macroeconomic stability, banking modernization, and structural economic reform.

These factors do not guarantee appreciation—but they can create the conditions under which a currency may strengthen sustainably in the long run.

🏛️🇮🇶 IRAQ’S GOVERNMENT FORMATION ENTERS A CRITICAL PHASE 🔥

 Frank26  

 Z [Zaidi] is working on the HCL...budget... forming the government all under the direction of Donald Trump.  Everything else is just noise...All we're waiting for is the removal of the unwanted names for the minister positions.  Not a single Iranian can represent [Iraq] in government ever again...Trump is working on the formation of the government and the security that [Iraq] needs from Iran.

🏛️🇮🇶 IRAQ’S GOVERNMENT FORMATION ENTERS A CRITICAL PHASE 🔥

Current discussions surrounding Iraq’s political transition suggest that Prime Minister Zaidi’s primary focus remains centered on three major priorities: completing the Hydrocarbon Law (HCL), stabilizing the national budget framework, and finalizing the formation of the government.

 According to many observers following the reform process, these issues are viewed as the true foundation for Iraq’s future stability and economic transformation.

Supporters of the current direction argue that much of the political drama and speculation circulating online is simply “noise” compared to the larger strategic objectives now underway. The belief is that Iraq’s leadership is concentrating on removing obstacles that have delayed reforms for years, particularly concerns over political influence, security challenges, and controversial ministerial appointments.

One of the biggest themes being emphasized is the desire to reduce foreign influence inside Iraq’s political system, especially regarding individuals perceived as aligned with Iranian interests.

 Many reform advocates believe Iraq cannot fully achieve sovereignty, security, or economic independence until the government is led entirely by officials whose loyalty is centered solely on Iraq’s national interests.

At the same time, there is growing speculation that international coordination — particularly involving the United States — is playing an important role behind the scenes in supporting Iraq’s governmental restructuring and broader security strategy. Supporters believe the ultimate objective is to create a more stable political environment capable of supporting economic reforms, banking modernization, foreign investment, and long-term regional stability.

The overall message being shared is that Iraq is moving through a sensitive transition period where government formation, national security, economic reform, and sovereignty are all deeply connected. Many believe the success or failure of these reforms could shape Iraq’s future for years to come. 🇮🇶📈
