An Economic Vision On Linking The Dinar To The US Dollar: A Weak Point For Iraq, 21 DEC

An Economic Vision On Linking The Dinar To The US Dollar: A Weak Point For Iraq

Today 19:40   Information/private..  Today, Wednesday, the economic expert, Diaa Al-Mohsen, considered the link of the Iraqi economy to the dollar currency a “weak point” for the country, while indicating the “optimal” way to overcome this problem.

Al-Mohsen said, in an interview with the Maalouma Agency, that “pegging the local currency to the US dollar represents a state of weakness for the country’s economy,  because the green currency changes depending on changes in the US economy, such as raising the interest rate by the Federal Bank, which will cause the value of the dollar to rise, and so on.”

 He added, "Relying all purchases on the dollar could have a negative or positive impact," pointing out that  "this issue can be overcome when there is a basket of currencies,  that is, when the value of a particular currency is low, the government can move toward another currency." The economic expert explained, "This happens when Iraq has a sufficient balance of these currencies, which gives it smooth conversion to the euro, the Russian ruble, and the Chinese yuan."

Earlier, the head of the Diyala Chamber of Commerce, Muhammad Al-Tamimi, confirmed that Washington used the dollar 4 times during 2023 to pressure Baghdad to achieve a political agenda, which led to provoking crises and raising prices at rates of up to 10%, especially for basic materials, due to the impact of the dollar’s liquidity and its control by about 90%. of transactions directly.

The United States of America continues to impose its influence on Iraq in many vital files, including depositing the money from the sale of Iraqi oil in the US Federal Bank, amid clear blackmail by passing many files, most notably the dollar bill, which puts great pressure on the government.
