Article: "Encouraging the local currency and dealing with it in light of the current economic conditions the country is experiencing is an important issue especially with the government's intention to strengthen the Iraqi dinar against other hard currencies especially the dollar..." They're educating them. All these things are fascinating. It's happening before our eyes.
Let's see how much stronger the dinar is over the dollar. Al-Sudani has stated..the dinar is going to be stronger than the dollar. That's the key focus in my view. I think it's powerful stuff.Bruce’s Big Call Dinar, 23 NOV
