What is the importance of Iraq joining international agreements?
6/26/2024
Baghdad
The Chairman of the National Investment Commission, Haider Makiya, stressed today, Wednesday, the importance of Iraq joining international agreements to enhance the investment sector, noting that Iraq has provided real
guarantees to attract foreign investments.
Makiya said, in his speech, during the launch of the National Investment Commission conference in cooperation with the United Nations Development Programme, that “Iraq’s accession to the International Settlement Agreement resulting from international mediation and disputes that was signed in 2024, will contribute to achieving the goals of sustainable development and encouraging the increasing use of international mediation as a means.” Effective for settling cross-border disputes, for the purpose of maintaining trade and investment relations between the parties involved in the investment process.”
He added, "This agreement has a pivotal dimension, foremost among which is finding an alternative method to litigation procedures before international arbitration bodies in disputes arising from investment, especially since Iraq joined in 2015 the International Center for the Settlement of Investment Disputes between States and Citizens of Other Countries, and this "It will give foreign investors the right to resort to the Washington Center."
He continued, "Also, the Republic of Iraq's accession to the New York Convention on the Recognition of Foreign Judgments of 1958means completing all the necessary legislative environment to provide real guarantees and protection for foreign investors, and this will reflect positively on attracting foreign capital to Iraq, which aims at the construction and reconstruction process, and will raise Iraq's classification." .
He explained, "This agreement enhances the Iraqi investment reality, because it includes many international and qualitative strategic investment opportunities that impose contracts with specialized foreign companies for investment purposes. This requires Iraq to provide legal protection to those companies by resolving disputes in the event that they arise from investment contracts that It is imposed by state institutions on these companies, which prefer to resort to international arbitration to guarantee their rights, as stipulated in Article 27 of Investment Law No. 13.”
He pointed out, “Iraq’s accession to the International Mediation Agreement (Singapore Agreement) is necessary to attract foreign investments and achieve intended development, especially in light of Iraq’s transformation and dependence on a free market economy. This agreement will also create a legal framework that allows reliance on agreements.” The settlement resulting from mediation is easily implemented by all countries.”
Makiya stressed that “the legal department at the National Investment Authority and the investment authorities in the governorates will work to include international investment contracts by relying on mediation mechanisms in investment-related disputes before resorting to international arbitration, which will send a message of reassurance to foreign investors and foreign companies in order to proceed with resolving disputes.” related to these contracts, is easier than entering into international commercial arbitration procedures.”
He pointed out, “The Republic of Iraq’s accession to the International Commercial Arbitration Agreement and the Singapore Mediation Agreement, in addition to concluding many agreements to encourage and protect mutual investments between Iraq and many international countries, made Iraq occupy fourth place in the classification of foreign direct investment.”
And the best emerging markets to invest in 2024.”
He stressed that "the noticeable improvement in the investment climate in Iraq comes as a result of government efforts made to strengthen the economic and investment sector, in attracting foreign investments," calling on foreign companies, foreign investors and businessmen to "visit Iraq to learn about the investment opportunities included in the investment map, and to attend the forum." "Iraq Investment Bank, which will be held next November, will launch more than 100 investment opportunities with integrated approvals, and review the benefits and guarantees that the investment law will provide to investors." .

I am getting inundated with bank contacts telling me to expect that things have already started …but coming to fruition in banks after the 4th of July. With a rollout in the days immediately following. I believe the 4th is on a Thursday this year… so I was told the roll out around the 6th and 7th. That is the rumor. Remember, we don’t know the timing. I am sure getting a heck of a lot from the banking side that things are now moving quickly and that is what they are preparing them for.

I did hear from 3 or 4 military sources and Reno and the Treasury…rumors that are all over the place, some saying it’s happening right now, to no – its tomorrow…to Its already started, to all kinds of timing rumors in an concerted effort to cloud timing. …I think it’s a good things to see them in panic mode trying to cloud timing.

Shafaq News / Prime Minister Mohammed Shiaa Al-Sudani stressed on Thursday the importance of developing cooperation with NATO after the end of the mission of the international coalition led by the United States of America in Iraq.
This came during his meeting with the commander of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) mission in Iraq, General Lucas Schroers, who recently took office, according to a statement issued by the Sudanese media office.
The statement stated that, during the meeting, the security situation in the region was discussed, and the efforts of the mission and its cooperation with the Iraqi security institutions in the field of advice and training were reviewed, and in the field of intelligence coordination towards the prosecution of remnants of remnants of ISIS terrorist gangs.
The statement added that the Prime Minister stressed the importance of developing bilateral cooperation with the mission in the areas of training and information coordination, with the Iraqi armed forces after the end of the international coalition mission in Iraq, in a way that enhances security and helps in the stability of the region.
For his part, General Schroors expressed his thanks to the government, for supporting the mission, and providing the necessary facilities for its work in Iraq, according to the statement.
Earlier this year, the Iraqi Foreign Ministry announced the success of the negotiations with America and the agreement to form a “supreme military committee” to draft a specific and clear timetable that determines the duration of the presence of the advisers of the international coalition in Iraq.
On Wednesday, June 5, a political source was informed, revealed a 40-day deadline granted by armed Iraqi factions to Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani, to resolve the file of removing US forces from the country, promising that otherwise it would resume their attacks against US military forces.
In early February, attacks by armed groups on U.S. forces in Iraq and Syria stopped, after a drone attack killed three U.S. soldiers in Jordan, in response to which the United States carried out air strikes on sites in Iraq and Syria.
In the midst of the new developments, a political source familiar with Shafaq News told Agency that “a number of armed factions have given the Sudanese and his government until mid-July to resolve the file of removing American forces from the country.”
The source added, “The factions stipulated the establishment of an announced and binding timetable for the resolvement of this file, and otherwise military operations against American goals and interests in Iraq and the region will be resurred.”
On January 30, 2024, the Hezbollah Iraq Brigades announced the cessation of its operations against US forces in order to “not embarrass the Iraqi government,” recommending its fighters “temporarily negative defense.”
Iraqi armed factions launched periodic attacks on US bases in Iraq and Syria, which began in late October 2023, against the backdrop of the Gaza war.
UAE Stablecoin Payment Token Services Regulation came out laying down the rules and conditions by the Central Bank of UAE for licenses pertaining to payment tokens, not allowing algorithmic tokens to be included and only allowing foreign stablecoins to be used to purchase virtual assets.
The Central Bank of the UAE defined Payment Token Services as being digital payment services in the UAE comprising of three categories, namely Payment Token Issuance, Payment Token Conversion and Payment Token Custody and Transfer.
The Central Bank Law provides the statutory basis for the powers of the Central Bank in relation to the licensing and ongoing supervision of Licensed Payment Token Service Providers, and related matters.
The Governor of the Central Bank, Ali Mohsen Ismail Al-Alaq, when he announced the third strategic plan for the years (2024-2026), includes a set of main and sub-objectives and initiatives to achieve the bank’s plan.
The governor stated that the plan paid special attention to the supervision of the banking sector, in order to build a “sober” banking sector, while the plan, according to the relationship, focused on the non-banking financial institutions sector [investment banks, hedge funds, insurance companies, mortgage lenders etc].
In the first strategic objective identified as Enhancing monetary stability the CBI lists four facets of this effort.
In these four there are list ten initiatives.
In examining the ten it appears that nine of the ten have already been initiated.
The one initiative waiting in the wings is the and I quote, “Introduce NEW ISSUES of high-quality currency.”
I’m certain this is a reference to new lower denominations and since it is a subset of the FIRST strategic objective, it is thus identified as foundational to move forward for the banking sector’s stability.
It seems based on the plan to be the only foundational initiative remaining to be implemented.
This is interesting when we get to the point where it’s very quiet - we know that we are close and this is about to go – on Saturday the RC had a 2 and half hour vimeo call - don’t know what it was about but we know RC staff went in for four hours on Monday - two people overlapping for 7 hours staying thinking that the 800’s would come out and they’d get the email from WF –
our understanding now is that tomorrow is looking very good for us to get those 800’s and this is coming from the Head herself of the RC fully expecting to be notified tomorrow – and hearing from sunset tonight to mid-morning tomorrow, so that narrows it down and also we might well wake to those emails overnight – that is a possibility. When you get right down to it – there is not a whole lot else we are interesting ONLY when are we going to get those number and notifications.
I have spoken about the contract rate for the IQD and also it’s quite possible for that new rate to go into the Gazette tomorrow Wednesday. Regarding contract rates it’s very high and tied to the per barrel rate that Iraq is selling to Turkey or other nations and yesterday I got that the contract rate would be offered to all US citizens that have Dinar and if you are not a US Citizen you’ll end up with the rate on the screen and the rates are moving up and the Dong is also on the screen at a decent rate also - but now we are really getting down to it and we’ll take it from there and hopefully exchanges Wednesday afternoon/evening or Thursday –
bring your identification all that we’ve mentioned before to the exchange, just as proof of residency and be ready for this to go quickly and if you have tons of currency and bonds, let them know when you call. And now Bruce is again talking about Sue and her new class.
So I’m sure that’s ALL Bruce has for us for intel tonight - but it’s Good intel we just have to see it actually manifest – and as Bruce keeps saying THEY ONLY HAVE TO GET IT RIGHT ONCE - so without a doubt Bruce will again be thanking all his team. Also without doubt he’ll pray out the call - so please pray with Bruce and keep those heartfelt prayers being said and see if our Father Creator will bring this Heavenly Blessing that this is the Season and The Time for this to finally happen for the whole of Humanity - remember ALL our prayers are just powerful.
Well the call confirmed what I had posted earlier plus indicated the exchange process will begin in China move eastward to Europe and then to the US and they anticipate a start soon but cannot confirm the exact start date.
They are also positive we are almost there.
