The Codes have been locked in. I received a confirmation yesterday, but it was confidential. Carlos Petas actually put it in the telegram channel so I decided to place it in the room.
The funds might get released tonight or may get released tomorrow, we just don’t know. Everything is ready to go. There is nothing more to do, we just have to sit back and wait for the Green Light.
ANOTHER THING Medbeds are ready. I spoke to someone, actually a few days ago, who is in charge of the Medbeds in Colombia. They are just waiting for the Green Light for this to happen. THERE ARE 150 MEDBEDS IN COLOMBIA! This was confirmed by Charlie Ward as well. That is all I can tell you at the moment. …

The only thing missing is the lower denoms and the new exchange rate. Everything else is in position.
[Aki - Iraq Bank In US update]
AKI: There are many Iraqi citizens in the United States of American holding 3-zero notes. It is my job to collect them for the CBI, where they will destroy them. Our [job] is to turn in the 3-zero notes.
WALKINGSTICK: This is huge!

[Aki - Iraq Bank owner in US update]
Question: "The new orders you got on January 1st, are they for you to dispense the lower denoms and collect 3 zero notes?"
Here in the Untied States we are preparing to do everything with electronic platforms...We are prepared to collect the 3 zero notes from those that wish to exchange them for American dollars...We follow International banking laws, the same laws American banks follow. Here in the United States the bank that I am in charge of will be all electronic.
When you ask about the LDs they are only found in Iraq. We do not possess them. Iraq will give to the Iraqi citizens, when the time comes, physical lower notes and coins and collect three zero notes...The difference is that here in the US I have to do everything electronic where my friends in Iraq, their banks can do it electronic or physically if they want the lower denoms and coins in their hands.
Shafaq News/ The representative of the “Taqaddum” parliamentary bloc, Fahd Al-Rashed, confirmed on Friday that the only candidate from his bloc to occupy the position of Speaker of the House of Representatives is Shalan Al-Karim.
Al-Rashed told Shafaq News Agency, “The session tomorrow, Saturday, is dedicated to electing the Speaker of the House of Representatives to replace Muhammad Al-Halbousi, and that there is more than one candidate to fill this position, including Representative Salem Al-Issawi, Mahmoud Al-Mashhadani, Shalan Al-Karim and other candidates.”
He added, “The only candidate from the (Taqaddum) party is MP Shalan Al-Karim, while MP Salem Al-Issawi is the candidate of the (Sovereignty) coalition, and Mahmoud Al-Mashhadani is the candidate of the (Al-Azm) coalition.”
Al-Rashed explained, “The (Taqaddum) Party officially informed the coordination framework and the Kurdish blocs that its only candidate is Representative Shalan Al-Karim.”
Yesterday, Thursday, the Presidency of the House of Representatives set the date for holding a session to elect a new Speaker of Parliament to replace former President Muhammad al-Halbousi.
The Parliament’s Media Department issued an agenda received by Shafaq News Agency, setting next Saturday, January 13, as the date for electing the new Speaker of the House of Representatives.
The head of the Tasmeem parliamentary bloc, Amer Al-Fayez, revealed yesterday, Tuesday, that the Presidency of the House of Representatives has set next Saturday, corresponding to January 13, as the date for holding the first session of its new legislative term.
On Tuesday, November 14, 2023, the Federal Supreme Court, “the highest judicial authority in Iraq,” announced the termination of the membership of Parliament Speaker Muhammad Al-Halbousi, against the backdrop of a lawsuit filed against him by Representative Laith Al-Dulaimi, in which he accused him of forging his (Al-Dulaimi’s) resignation from membership in the House of Representatives. As a result, the Federal Court ruled to terminate their membership (Al-Halbousi and Al-Dulaimi).
As a result, the Presidency of the Iraqi Council of Representatives decided to officially terminate the membership of Council Speaker Muhammad al-Halbousi.
Since the end of Al-Halbousi’s membership in the House of Representatives, the House has held several sessions to elect a new speaker, but the issue was not raised in those sessions due to the heads of the political blocs not agreeing on the alternative candidate.
Question: "Why would Iraq give the date of January 15th when they have tried to keep the timing of everything else a secret?" They're not telling you that's when they're going to reinstate their currency. They're telling you that's when their currency will go international. Now the question is at what rate?
Question: "What do you know about the length of time that we can exchange?" More than likely inside of a year . We should be able to see the growth of the Iraqi dinar to go back into what is comfortable for the Middle Eastern currency exchange rate that's fair.
They are doing what the monetary reform requires right now.That is for the Iraqi citizens to now be in position to receive the lower denoms, the fils and a new exchange rate. It's all being done by the process of removing the American dollar and increasing the confidence, the value, the usage of the Iraqi dinar...
