 Al-Sudani: Iraq imports goods worth 70 billion dollars annually

Economy     Iraq     Holland    Import     Muhammad Shiaa Al-Sudani  2024-02-15 09:31  Shafaq News/ Prime Minister Muhammad Shiaa Al-Sudani said on Thursday that Iraq annually imports $70 billion in goods, indicating that the government’s priorities are reforming the economy and not continuing to rely on oil revenues.

This came during a speech by Al-Sudani, which he delivered at a dialogue seminar held in the Dutch city of Rotterdam, attended by a number of businessmen and representatives of 40 companies, according to a statement received by Shafaq News Agency. Al-Sudani stated,

"Iraq is going through a state of recovery today, at various levels, after passing the stage of the war against ISIS, in which the Iraqi people won, with the support and backing of the international community, and the Netherlands was among the countries supporting these efforts." He added:

"We asked the international coalition to end its mission in Iraq, which lasted 10 years, in light of the readiness and efficiency of the Iraqi security services."  

Regarding the economic file, Al-Sudani stressed, “The government has priorities, including reforming the Iraqi economy, through two tracks.

     The first is achieving reforms in the various economic, banking and financial sectors, and gas investment, and   the other is implementing projects that provide job opportunities and meet our needs for services and goods.”

Regarding the water issue, the Prime Minister pointed out the start of a program to use water optimally, in light of the conditions of scarcity that the region and the world suffer from,” adding:

“We supported farmers and farmers in acquiring modern irrigation systems, and we are trying to invest in the successful experiences in the Netherlands to confront water scarcity in Iraq.”.  

Regarding investment projects, Al-Sudani said, “The Iraq Fund for Development will engage with the private sector in implementing projects away from the government, whose role will be planning and organizing,” stressing that

“the government provides sovereign guarantees to the private sector of up to 85% for any project being implemented.” This is an unprecedented percentage.”  He continued:

"We have embarked on a radical reform of the financial and banking sector, and procedures related to compliance with international standards in financial transfers," noting that

"international and Arab banks have begun to open their branches in Iraq, and

there is will and work, at all levels of Iraqi state institutions, in order to move to reality." better".

"FOR ALL HOLDERS OF FOREIGN CURRENCIES" BY GIRLBYE, 17 FEB

GirlBye

Yesterday at 7:50 pm

It is a waste of my time and intelligence to maliciously bash people and/or their opinions. However, I am going to voice this fact one time only in this particular forum.

For all holders of foreign currency, be it ZIM, Dong, Dinar, etc. There are licensed and bonded agencies where you can exchange your currency. i.e. banks such as HSBC, Chase, Wells Fargo. There are also Exchange Centers i.e. Bretton Woods, Currency Exchange International, etc. You do not require a special 800 number. What you do require is common sense i.e. pick up the phone and make an appointment with your bank, if you plan to exchange a large amount of currency and/or you don’t want to wait in line.

If you know of an actual licensed and bonded Redemption Center (not a bank or currency exchange) please feel free to post it here in response. I would be interested in calling them.

Currency speculators make confessions via INA , 17 FEB

  Currency speculators make confessions via INA 

The Directorate of Combating Organized Crime of the Federal Intelligence and Investigation Agency at the Ministry of Interior detained individuals who were involved in dollar speculating, bank card smuggling, and gambling. The confessions of these individuals are published by the Iraqi News Agency (INA).

Dollar-speculating

During his confession of engaging in dollar price speculation, one of the accused stated, "What we are doing is withdrawing the dollar from the market, and when its prices rise, it is resold again." 

"Some offices of currency exchange businesses or Qi companies operate in buying and selling dollars and making transfers without official permission," he said.

Trafficking in bank cards

"We load the card in Iraq at the official exchange rate, then withdraw money in the UAE through an ATM, and then transfer it to Iraq at the parallel market price," stated a second person charged with bank card trafficking.  

He declared: "I obtained 34 cards through illicit means. I obtained citizens' documents by using them to issue cards while posing as a seller of electrical devices that I planned to sell in installments.

Gambling through (Forex) 

Although "the Forex site is speculating in global currencies, whether the dollar against the euro or the euro against the yen and enters the gambling field," another accused who engaged in gambling on the website acknowledged this. 

"The Central Bank and the Iraq Securities Commission have not granted a license to the company we work for," he said, adding that "the mechanism of work in Forex includes the introduction of citizen courses through targeting them on Instagram or Facebook, where the citizen enters a course in this work and we educate him in this field." 

"Not to be drawn into these things because they are illegal," he urged the people.

In an interview with the Iraqi News Agency (INA), Colonel Ahmed Mohammed, the Director of media for the Federal Intelligence and Investigation Agency, reaffirmed that the arrests of those responsible for these acts are being carried out in compliance with the law under Article No. (2) of the Anti-Money Laundering and Terrorism Financing Law No. (39) of 2015.  link 

Basel III Empowers the Citizens, Not the Banks BY ARIEL, 17 FEB

 Basel III Empowers the Citizens, Not the Banks

I Guess This Is The End:

The Fall of Baal Info came out via Militia-Man & Crew that confirm what I shared with you all about Texas when redeeming currency for precious metals that once the Iraqi Dinar is on the Forex anyone will be able to convert into Gold & Silver. 

Do you all know how monumental this is?

Remember the 43 states that pass bills to make metals legal tender? This means your money will be 100% tax-free. This means that if you purchase property with gold mortgage, taxes, liens, etc, it will not be a factor in any capacity. 

Why do you think bankers fear Basel 3? 

Remember what the MBA stated a few days ago? That the entire model of real estate will change because of B-3. “The Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) has voiced strong opposition to the Basel capital rule changes, pointing out seven key areas that could affect major banks and regional banks, lenders, servicers, and borrowers within the housing finance ecosystem. Here’s a closer look at these crucial concerns”. End quote. 

Basel 3 empowers the citizens. Not the banking industry. This is why they are now trying to double down on the Dodd Frank Act. Which allows the bank to legally confiscate your money making them impervious to lawsuits.

You all have to understand. In the 1970s, boomers bought houses for 10k-20k. Now do you all see why bankers were crying to Congress about Basel 3 on Capitol Hill a couple of months ago? 

The days of writing up mortgages with interest rates that only exist on a computer screen with nothing in the bank vaults to support the contract written out homebuyers that agree to honor that over decades on a monthly basis. Not knowing they financially entrapped themselves by signing off on a document that allows the bank to seize or confiscate your property due to delinquency in payments for money they never physically possessed themselves to underwrite a contract based on nothing but a promise and not assets are over.

My local bank recently announced they were getting out of the mortgage business. At the time it struck me as surprising. Guess now I know why. They’ve been around since 1831. Basel 3 baby.

@Prolotario1

The incentive to make money in the mortgage market will be taken away once Basel 3 is implemented. Which is wonderful for citizens.

I can add to this. I am selling my house and buying another one. When we asked for wiring instructions the escrow officer said we can transfer direct from our account to escrow. She said it’s a brand new program. In 20 years of real estate my wife has always had to wire money.

Weekend News with MarkZ. 02/17/2024

Weekend News with MarkZ 

Some highlights by PDK-Not verbatim

MarkZ Disclaimer: Please consider everything on this call as my opinion. People who take notes do not catch everything and its best to watch the video so that you get everything in context.  Be sure to consult a professional for any financial decisions

Remember: The CBD Guru’s will be in the first 45 minutes then Mark with the news of the day. 

Member: Happy Saturday and Happy 3 day weekend!!!

Member: Hoping Mark has great news for us today!

MZ: Not a lot of RV news but there is tremendous pressure from Sudani to remove all US presence is Iraq. Both Financial restrictions and the military . 

MZ: “Sudani urges ending foreign forces presence in Iraq “ Not just military but it is time for Iraq to be autonomous and sovereign so they want the removal of US forces and also financially . They want the US military to leave immediately because of their destabilizing affect and to reorganize the US-Iraq relationship financially

MZ: There has been a number of articles this week where they are pushing to remove US tentacles from their financial world as well. This is big. 

MZ: Very quiet from bonds, banking and redemption centers. But I do know of some redemption center contacts working today- So if I learn anything I will post it on Telegram, X and Truth. 

MZ: There is a lot of great chatter coming out of groups . And some bond folks have great expectations for this week. But I have more bond contacts that will not speak anymore. It all sounds good and let us hope this is it. 

MZ: “ FedEx Founder issues dire warning about unsustainable government debt”  Yet another titan of industry telling us we are soon to pass the lexicon…that we are about to implode if we do not deal with our financial house …We are not the only one as many countries in the world are in worse shape, but we are all reaching the point of no return. 

MZ: I hypothesize we may have already past the point of no return and there is a necessity now for our reset. 

MZ: “West could upend global financial system-Russia Central Bank”  European banks and US banks have seized about $300Billion in assets like yachts, ect of people in Russia. They have not liquidated them yet but there is a movement in the EU and the US to liquidate those holdings and send them to the Ukraine.

MZ: What would that do to international business? Would this make Russia working with Chcina and other friendly BRICS countries to freeze assets belonging to the west? Then liquidate them to pay for years of abusive sanctions? What would this do to the world?

Member: Sounds like theft, piracy and a reason for World war.  Not good. 

Member: Read that Missouri close to being added to passing , using metals as legal tender! Brings the number to 43.

Member: Check this out- The title of a JP Morgan booklet that a Chase bank branch manager gave to Frank-After Frank educated him a bit: “Outlook 2024, Investing reconfigured, subtitled After the rate reset, Five considerations for the year ahead” 

MZ: I saw that and am super excited when I watched Franks video on that one.  

Member:  Who are supposedly trying to stop RV? UST, IMF,WTO, CBI?

Member: Maybe it’s all of the above. Hope there really are white hats working on it 

Member: We have no one in the UK to help us with our exchange.

MZ: Your process will work almost identical to ours in the US. This whole process is international and will go around the world. I hear international banks will also issue contacts and numbers for you to exchange. More of your banks are already up to speed on handling foreign currencies than banks in the US. When it happens you will get notices as to which banks are handling redemptions. They are wanting your business 

Member: How will we know in the US when to go exchange and where the exchange centers are???

Member: For security – They will not tell us where to go until its time 

Member: Use commonsense, people. Redemption centres would be a target, with all these high wealth individuals attending. So addresses will not be revealed in advance. Think about it..

Member: When this happens there will be an 800 # that will be emailed to everyone and you will then call it for further instructions

Member: Thank you Mark and Marvelous Mods, have a great rest of your weekend! Thanks for all you do!

Member: Have a great blessed weekend everyone 

Member: Have faith...Our day is coming...We will create our new beautiful earth together...Remember Unconditional Love & Peace
