🔥 IRAQ ALERT: Elections, Qaani, and Dinar Turmoil! 💥🇮🇶
📌 Shiite Framework Tensions ⚔️
Rising disputes within Iraq’s Shiite Coordination Framework over use of state resources in election campaigns.
Iranian parties, led by Quds Force commander Ismail Qaani, are stepping in to mediate 🤝 and maintain unity before elections.
Talks of Prime Minister Al-Sudani’s second term are early and uncertain 🕒.
📌 Qaani’s Secret Visits 🕵️♂️
Qaani visited Baghdad unannounced, meeting with political and armed leaders.
His goal: keep Tehran-aligned factions united ahead of election results ⚡.
📌 Iraqi Economy in Crisis 📉💰
The Iraqi Dinar lost ~5% of its value in late 2024.
Factors: falling cash reserves, dollar demand in parallel markets 💵, and over-reliance on oil.
Dollar smuggling and sanctions leniency reduce local USD supply, weakening the Dinar.
📌 Parallel Market Chaos 🌪️
98 trillion IQD traded outside banks, showing low trust in banking.
Weak local production + oil dependency make the Dinar vulnerable.
📌 Hope on the Horizon 🌅
Government has $100B in foreign reserves and fixed rate of 1,320 IQD/USD.
Monetary policies kept inflation under 3% 📊.
Focus on diversifying economy, digital economy expansion, and financial inclusion (40% adults now banked).
📌 Experts’ Warning ⚠️
Transparency and political stability are crucial to protect the Dinar.
Diversifying non-oil hard currency sources is key for long-term stability.
💡 Bottom Line:
Iraq is balancing election tensions, Iranian mediation, and economic pressures. The Dinar’s value, political unity, and economic reform are all at a critical juncture 🚨
