Article: "Specialist: Floating the dinar is economic suicide" As Saleh was stating but only stronger wording.
Article: "Al-Ardawi: The Sudanese government seeks to liberalize the Iraqi dinar and stabilize the economy" Quote: "The visit comes in a very heated situation and everyone is awaiting its outcomes, and the Sudanese carries...ideas and projects that move towards consolidating the relationship with the American side and transferring it from the process of guardianship to friendship...In a way that allows Iraq to assume its pivotal role in the region." As I have been stating...Iraq needs the US Guardianship to end!! (UN 1483)
Article quote: "Two Iraqi and American sources said that Prime Minister Muhammad Shiaa Al-Sudani will spend a week in the United States, including discussions with President Joe Biden, and a tour of 3 states." Will one State be Florida???? Mar-a-Lago???
IMO UN resolution 1483 will have to be lifted to allow Iraq to be totally sovereign as it established the US and UK as "occupying forces"...This is in essence "Guardianship" or "Receivership"...Absent the lifting, the US has to give Iraq permission to do most anything Internationally including "currency reinstatement"...I am hopeful that internal control of the money structure is exclusively in the hands of the CBI so they can at least move to the RD/RV stage of their monetary reform... If not, the upcoming US visit of Sudani may very well be pivotal... Saleh...recently stated he was unsure of the status of 1483 according to news articles...
This is clearly what the article said... They are weighing changing the rate from 1,320 dinars per dollar to 1.32 dinars per dollar. This is clearly 76 cents to 1 IQD...Currently the rate is 1,320 IQD to 1 USD. Looking it at the other way, this is 0.0007575 USD to 1 IQD. If they drop 1 zero from the exchange rate: 132.0 IQD to 1 USD or 0.007575 USD to 1 IQD. If they drop 2 zeros: 13.2 IQD to 1 USD or 0.07575 USD to 1 IQD. If they drop 3 zeros: 1.32 IQD to 1 USD or .7575 USD to 1 IQD. Therefore, 1.32 IQD to 1 USD is 76 cents to each IQD
...What we want to see posted on the CBI website as to how many IQD are required to purchase 1 USD is 1.00 or less. If they post 3.22 IQD to 1 USD, this would mean 31 cents per 1 IQD.
We want them to post .31 IQD to 1 USD which is then 3.22 USD to 1 IQD. Realize, they post how many IQD it takes to purchase 1 of another currency.

Community Comment: "...The rate doesn't matter but "freedom of movement of capital" is important. That is Article 8 compliance." They cannot be Article 8 compliant if the country is functioning under a MCP. A MCP [Multiple Currency Practices] includes a parallel rate of greater than 2% of the official rate by IMF definition. Saleh said last year that the parallel rate is "REQUIRED" to be 2% or less of the official rate...This 2% or less needs to be maintained for a period of 90 days. The parallel rate is still around 14% difference.
Question: "I thought they met all the requirements [to join the WTO]?" All the articles say they have legislation that needs to be passed and the next meeting is in the "middle of the year.
Question: "When is Iraq supposed to be in the WTO?" Not before they pass needed legislation, eliminate the MCP [Multiple Currency Practices] and are recognized as having accepted IMF Article 8 obligations. Accession Committee next meeting with Iraq is planned for the "middle of the year".
