Al-Qaddo: We will not accept the guardianship of the American embassy over Iraq
Al-Qaddo added, “The American embassy arouses the feelings of Iraqis through its interventions, and asks why it does not target the rest of the international embassies,” stressing that “crossing lines will create problems and lead to crises, and the embassy must realize that its presence comes in accordance with international pledges.”

Therefore, the number of Iraqis’ population who are more than 15 years old exceeds 26 million people, and based on the Ministry’s figures Work, which indicates that the size of social welfare beneficiaries is approximately 14 million people, while the number of adult Iraqi citizens who are not covered by social welfare is approximately 12 million people.

[Response to the the new Iraqi Dinar Commercial video...See Frank26's 10-8-2023 post below to watch it.]
The video shouldn't be shocking to anybody. The video that was released is only supporting what we've been reading over the last couple months - That Iraq was going to start taking pride in their currency, the government wants to encourage them to take pride in their currency, they want them to start getting away from using the US dollar and start using Iraqi dinar and together they'll do what it take to strengthen the Iraqi dinar...Nice little commercial...
Community comment: "I disagree with your position. The dinar going up in increments doesn't help anyone." Sure does. It helps the Iraqi people. They get more purchasing power.
Article: "A matter of a homeland. A campaign to support the Iraqi dinar and make it the gateway to build the country."
The quicker they do away with the dollar and start dealing only in their own currency is a huge step towards doing what they can to strengthening their own local currency against the US dollar. We know that's happening 1st of this January 2024. At least that's what they tell us.
