"ABOUT CHINA/RUSSIA MAY HAVE EFFECTIVELY NEUTRALIZED THE DOLLAR" BY MIKECRISTO, 18 JUNE

 MIKECRISTO

By Russia only selling oil in CNY, and Russia holding CNY as their main currency reserve. This allows Russia - China to go to the U.S. Treasury and say “you want us to trade your dollar, this is what the new exchange rate will be” What this means is that China/Russia are now pricing the dollar to rubles/CNY in the foreign exchange The U.S. Treasury no longer prices the USD to the ruble/CNY. This could only happen if the petrodollar was not renewed. This is going to have major implications for the euro-bond markets. China/Russia may have effectively neutralized the Dollar. This is the result of China - Russia trading commodities BRICS trading commodities now sets Dollar exchange rates. Remember Niger kicking out France and the U.S. ? Niger commodities are no longer sold in Dollars or francs. They’re probably being sold in rubles. This is all part of the RMB internationalization in emerging market foreign central banks Europe doesn’t produce commodities, so this is going to affect euro/dollar exchange rates affecting the Euro bond market.

Condemning the statements of the American ambassador...Al-Saray - A clear threat to Iraqs securityInformation / private..
Today, Saturday, Khaled Al-Saray, a member of the Al-Fatah Alliance, considered the statements of the new American ambassador to Baghdad a serious threat to Iraq.
Al-Saray said in a statement to the “Al-Ma’louma” agency, “Iraq rejects any threat, whether from the American occupation or from its ambassador, who adopts inflammatory and malicious ideas against the Popular Mobilization Forces, which represents a safety valve for the Iraqi people.”
He added, “There must be official positions from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and political forces condemning these statements that still target Iraqi national security,” noting that “the American occupation continues to violate the sovereignty and stability of Iraq.”
He explained that “the ambassador dared to mention security and the economy in order to brandish them as a pressure card on the political parties that stand with the Popular Mobilization Forces,” noting that “not responding to these statements is tantamount to giving them the green light.”
Tracy Jacobson, US President Joe Biden’s nominee for the position of the new US ambassador to Iraq, attended a hearing before the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee and presented her expected work plans in Baghdad.

"RV UPDATE" BY FRANK26, 18 JUNE

 Frank26  

 The investment law is being passed.  You'll see it very soon.  They have no choice. Sudani is extremely happy about it because that's how you're going to be able to get these new contract with the new exchange rate.

What is the time of the float? ...I want to watch the float.  I want to calculate exactly just when I want to go ahead and exchange the rest of my dinar.  Here's the problem.  In the same manner they are giving [Firefly/Iraq citizens] a specific amount of time to turn them in, they will give us a specific amount of time to turn them in

Did you see...Iraq and Kuwait are now linking with their fiber optics ?  This is extremely important part of the monetary reform...They know it's no longer a secret what is happening with the exchange rate of the Iraqi dinar.

Things are going perfect.  Everything is moving with such perfection that no one can do anything about this right now.

 How much time will they [Iraqi citizens] have to trade in 3 zero notes

 [Boot's on the ground Firefly's bank friend] told Firefly you're going to be given a short amount of time to exchange your Iraqi dinar.  This is the very first time ever that we have information from a very good source [saying] you're going to have a specific amount of time to trade in your 3 zero notes.

Al-Lami said in a statement to the Maalouma Agency, “American interference in internal affairs is rejected, especially the statements of the new candidate to assume the position of American ambassador to Iraq,” considering them a “violation of Iraqi sovereignty.”
He added, “The new ambassador’s statements are provocative to Iraqi political circles and must receive a direct response,” noting that “the presence of the Islamic resistance is an Iraqi choice, and the new candidate cannot change its course.”
He continued, “The American candidate, Tracy Jacobson, has not yet assumed the position of American ambassador to Iraq and is making violations and provocative statements.”

"RV UPDATE: IRAQ IS STABLISHING A SOVEREIGN WEALTH FUND" BY MNT GOAT, 17 JUNE

 Mnt Goat  

 ...the economic and financial advisor to the Prime Minister, Mazhar Muhammad Saleh, proposed an “unusual” idea to establish a sovereign wealth fund. ...Unlike the CBI reserves that are mandated by the IMF to cover the government expenses in time of emergencies, the SWF is more flexible and gives an additional pad of money for stability and security. This fund will also cut down the reliance  on oil revenue and help them move more quickly out of the rentier economy.  WOW!

---

  ...Just look at all the progress made just since December 2022 when Iraq announced they were finally entirely out of Chapter VII. And now the spigot is wide open...the final issues preventing the reinstatement are being dealt with one by one...my contact in the CBI told me there is a very high probability that we would see the currency swap out in this month of June and so we watch and wait.

...Iraq’s exit from the list of “high-risk countries" ...was officially announced by the International Task Force (FATF) last week.

 Yes, “the writing is on the wall” now as this is the BEST news...Iraq’s exit from the list of high-risk countries could not get any better. They are slowly clearing the way to the reinstatement, one obstacle at a time...They were not about to release the currency back to FOREX with this in place...WOW! WOW! WOW! news for us today.

Biden is preparing a new anti-Tehran ambassador to Iraq, 17 JUNE

 Biden is preparing a new anti-Tehran ambassador to Iraq

6-16-2024
Biden is preparing a new anti-Tehran ambassador to IraqUS President Joe Biden’s nominee for the position of ambassador to Iraq, Tracy Jacobson, surprised official and political Iraqi circles with unusual statements about Iranian influence and militias loyal to Tehran. Jacobson presented her opening speech before the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, and expressed her gratitude to President Biden and the Secretary of State for their confidence in her nomination. For this “vital position”.
It seems that the new ambassador, who will succeed another controversial ambassador, Elena Romanski, wanted to enter the Iraqi scene directly regarding the Iranian file. Jacobson confirmed that she will work closely with the committee to promote American interests in Iraq.
She said: “Our army provides vital support to the Iraqi security forces and the Peshmerga in the Kurdistan region. Ten years after our forces returned to Iraq to fight ISIS, it is time for our army to move into a new role. “I will ensure that any transition from Operation Inherent Resolve to a bilateral security arrangement is directed toward defeating ISIS and ensuring Iraq’s security.”
Jacobson stressed the importance of Iraq strengthening its relations with its neighbors, noting the positive steps taken by the Sudanese Prime Minister in this direction.
Jacobson pointed out that the presence of economic development, and a government capable of providing services to its people, reduces the attraction of terrorism, and also reduces the influence of militias allied with Iran, which pose a great danger to the future of the country. Iran is a “malignant actor”
and she said, “Iran is a malicious actor in Iraq.” “It is destabilizing to the region, and we realize that the main threat to Iraq is the militias allied with Iran.”
Observers believe that Jacobson’s appointment may mean a new path for American policy in conjunction with the transition of the security relationship after the international coalition to a sustainable security partnership, according to Iraqi government statements.
Since assuming office about two years ago, Al-Sudani wanted the relationship with the countries of the coalition against ISIS to be governed by a new equation different from what it was before.
At the beginning of this year, Al-Sudani announced the end of the international coalition’s mission and the transformation of relations between his countries and Iraq into bilateral relations. He also agreed with President Joe Biden in Washington to reactivate the strategic framework agreement between the two countries signed in 2008, which was ratified by the Iraqi parliament.
At a time when Sudanese made pledges to the parties demanding the withdrawal of the Americans from Iraq as occupying forces to end this presence in stages in accordance with the “Strategic Framework” agreement, it appears that the armed factions loyal to Iran were not convinced by all these pledges, because they have another strategy in dealing with the Americans that is not in In light of the nature of the Iraqi-American relationship, but rather in light of the critical balance between Washington and Tehran.
At the beginning of the American occupation of Iraq in 2003, Washington sent an ambassador, acting as governor-general, whose entire experience was combating terrorism, which did not pose a threat when the previous regime fell. He was Paul Bremer.
Although Bremer continued to rule Iraq for a full year, while it was governed in form by a ruling council composed of the so-called founding fathers of the post-Saddam Hussein regime.
While Bremer wanted to use his experience in combating terrorism, when he left the country in 2004, clouds of terrorist movements were clouding over the skies of Iraq, and he was replaced by a Muslim ambassador of Afghan origin, Zalmay Khalilzad, who quickly entered the power equation in a country that had just begun to share positions along sectarian lines. (Sunni – Shiite) and ethnic (Arab – Kurdish) without being able to achieve any progress at the level of strengthening constitutional institutions.
During the following years, Washington sent many ambassadors to Baghdad, none of them left an imprint in the context of relations between the two countries, while the matter differed with Romanski, and it is about to be more different with the next ambassador.
In this context, Yassin Al-Bakri, professor of political science at Al-Nahrain University, told Asharq Al-Awsat, “The new ambassador’s mission will be to arrange the transition in the security relationship and arrange the roles assigned to Washington, and she will try to gain the largest space of freedom of movement for Washington’s goals, while the confrontation between Washington and And Tehran is putting more pressure on its arms in Iraq.

"RV UPDATE" BY WALKINGSTICK, 17 JUNE

  Walkingstick 

 When they load or if they have loaded them up [new ATMs], the note count has already been determined.  The note count for each individual machine has already been accounted for...These machines will be the state of the art...State of the art has nothing to do with a program rate.  If it was they would have had the state-or-the-art with the program rate for the last 20 years...

The CBI is desperately trying to put out the least amount of currency at the onset before they release the new exchange rate.  Because once they do this, if needed, they will be able to add to this note count as the value is needed.

These ATM machines have the capability to recognize the lower denoms that are soon to be passed out to the citizens in order to add value to their currency and to go hand in hand with a new exchange rate of the lower notes...These ATM machines have the software for the lower notes.  But does it have the lower notes in these ATM machines It is unknown...Since April there have been thousands of these ATMs being put out...

Question:  "Do these ATM machines have the lower notes ?"  Software definitely.    [I'll] text Aki [Walkingstick's Iraqi Bank friend] about the notes.

 Don't be dismayed if the rate is still the same in the budget when it comes out on Saturday...because Sudani is dealing with this [57 trillion] thievery...He could release an "operational" budget.

There’s a fake petrodollar news story doing the rounds that Saudi Arabia and the U.S. had a 50-year contract in which Saudi agreed to settle all its oil sales in U.S. dollars. Supposedly, this is meant to foreshadow the end of dollar dominance and is good for cryptocurrency prices. Except there was no such deal.

BOJ Announcement:


"The Bank of Japan on Friday said it would trim its vast hoard of government bonds as it cautiously steps away from its long-running ultra-loose monetary policy."


As you can see, several countries are beginning to pull back on bond buying and use of the US dollar. 


This decrease in the use of the dollar and increase in local currencies around the world will begin the process of leveling the playing field in the currency markets. 


New demands on local currencies that have not been used in years will begin to surface new price actions. 


Stay tuned!

WOLVERINE'S GUIDELINES : "WHEN YOU GO TO THE REDEMPTION CENTRE FOR YOUR APPOINTMENT" BY WOLVERINE, 17 JUNE

Wolverine's Guidelines
IMPORTANT NOTICE:

When you go to the REDEMPTION CENTRE for Your Appointment:

Make Sure You NEVER just hand over your Currencies or ZIM for EXCHANGE w/o asking the following questions first w/ someone from there as a WITNESS.
Write everything down and have the person asking and answering your questions print their name and initial or sign what you wrote down.

Here’s why:

When the security person asks for your currency and ZIM to verify it with the De la Rue Machine to determine if it is AUTHENTIC, DO NOT just hand it over. I REPEAT, DO NOT just hand it over. Do one Country and one denomination at-a-time. Ask them if by handing it over to them “ ARE YOU EXCHANGING IT?” Their answer should be NO.

This become MOST IMPORTANT when they are giving you the rates. You MUST make sure you have all your questions answered first before “handing-over” ANYTHING. Have you completed the Summary Sheet for each currency? Have you separated everything by Country and denomination and put in separate clear ZIP-LOCK Bags, ie., Dinar -$1,000, $5,000, $20,000 so you will have a post-it with  of each, then paperclip each stack. Put each in it’s own Zip Lock Bag then put Dinar Zip Lock Bags’s (3 in this Example) into 1 that Holds All three.

People that walk-in UNPREPARED
will be the 1st to “SPIN OUT” (their head will not think straight) and they will make HUGE MISTAKES. REMEMBER: They are not there to tell you what to do or fix what you haven’t done. You are on the CLOCK, so you must have your head on straight. Practice w/ a friend or Spouse, etc

ZIM STEP ARE EXTRA CRITICAL; Are you aware there could possibly be “LIMITS” on just how many ZIM you can EXCHANGE for FULL PAYOUT. Right, now, your head is on the edge of “SPINNING-OUT” because this is most likely the first time you’ve heard me or anyone else mention it. Now, QUICK! What is the Capital of Rhode Island?
Your answer should be, heck I don’t know. That was your one practice situation. And, so long as you can stay calm and breathe, why are you there? To “EXCHANGE” YOUR CURRENCIES AND ZIM.

I REPORTED THAT THOSE WITH THE “LARGE” EXCHANGES OF ZIM WERE ONLY GETTING 10% OF THE TOTAL WITH THE OTHER 90% GOING INTO THE NATIONAL HUMANITARIAN INITIATIVE BUCKETS. AND, OF THEIR 10% THEY WERE GETTING 1% NOW WITH THE OTHER 9% BEING HELD UNTIL AFTER THE NDA’S EXPIRE. THEY CAN DO WHATEVER THEY WANT WITH THEIR 10% as none of it is required to be used in a Humanitarian Project. It’s all Personal to be spent on whatever they want.
