A statement by Al-Bitek said, a copy of it said: “External transfers include all diplomatic missions, international organizations and agencies operating in Iraq, and non-governmental civil society organizations registered in the General Secretariat of the Council of Ministers in the event that the foreign donor requires the payment of the amounts of foreign transfers received in dollar currency inside Iraq.”

It's still at 1310...Right now. Don't you understand [the dinar] is being put into a position to change the rate? It's that simple. It's not complicated. It's that simple at this simple step...That's what you're seeing. That's what you're witnessing.
Question: "Is Iraq going forward with only dinars as of January 1st?" Yes and that is the key...the next 24 hours is a very important key to see if they use it to unlock the monetary reform....If the Iraqi citizens have absolutely no other currency but the dinar to use in their country... how are they going to do it with a 3-zero note that has almost no value to it?Iran announces the start of settling its exports to Iraq in its currency, 1 JAN
Iran announces the start of settling its exports to Iraq in its currency
Information/Baghdad..
The Governor of the Central Bank of Iran confirmed the start of a project to settle the country’s exports abroad in the national currency, the riyal.
Muhammad Reza Farzin said on the sidelines of the meeting of the Government and Private Sector Council in Khorasan Razavi Province (northeastern Iran), that “the issue of settling Iranian exports via the riyal currency outside the borders has been studied by the Central Bank for several months, and that its entry into force will address the requirements of exporters to Iraq and Afghanistan.”
He added, “This issue is one of the demands of Mashhad’s merchants for export to Afghanistan, and through the implementation of the ‘Rial Offshore’ project (riyals outside the borders), merchants will be able to benefit from it instead of foreign currency.”
He pointed out that “the regulations for the cross-border riyal project have been formulated by the Central Bank, and in practice two banks have started this project, and soon it will be circulated to all the country’s banks.”
It is noteworthy that the Federal Reserve Bank, the US central bank, imposed procedures and restrictions on external financial transfers from Iraq, to ensure that they do not reach Tehran.

I hope it gets 1 to 1. I'd be happy with that...Let's see what's going on with the budget and the elimination of the dollar. Let's wait for the best and expect the best.
Don't worry about the budget. The budget has nothing to do with nothing. Has stuff to do with making the economy stronger and all that stuff but has nothing to do with the rates...EXCERPTS FROM MARKZ, 27 NOV
