Member: Good Evening to all. Today Feb 20th was supposed to be a big day…what happened?
MZ: We were hearing lots of things about it. And I know we are close.
Member: Hearing bond people may receive payouts tomorrow and Isaac was expecting 1% today but has not confirmed it yet.
MZ: There was a lot of chatter from bond folks but whenever I think they might get paid – they stop talking. Which could mean what we hope it does that they got paid and stopped talking due to an NDA.
Member: Two things we know....1) some are being paid...2) those funds can/are being clawed back if you violate NDAs
MZ: From Iraq: “ How will foreign trade be financed after the online platform is canceled? The Iraqi Central Bank answers” Lots of positive news coming out of Iraq
MZ: “Oil Minster-We plan to export gas to Europe” They are looking to become a major player with natural gas. This is huge and something they never had under Saadam Hussein. They have been importing and now looking to be an exporter. This is an enormous untapped market for them.
MZ: “Iraq confirms World Banks intention to promote fiscal policy reforms.” And here is the humdinger of the day. “ Al Sudani sets the date for the opening of the port of Al Faw and decides the future of the presence of the coalition forces in Iraq” The future is they will be gone.
MZ: This is not just the US they want to leave- but the entire coalition. He said it began in 2014 and ENDED TODAY! This is huge news. Decisions have been made and they no longer need them. They are moving towards independence. It is all good news today .
Member: I wonder if Iraq is going to join BRICS?
Member: I wonder How many oil rich countries have to join brics , before the petro dollar actually dies ???
Member: There is sure a lot of videos and articles being released about BRICS recently.
Member: In the future if not a member of Brics they won’t b able 2 trade with BRICS nations
Member: There is a rumor Texas has applied to join BRICS…..interesting if true.
MZ: I don’t think Texas has applied to join BRICS. They are not a nation….Maybe if the left the US?????
MZ: “Myanmar interested in BRICS bloc work on single currency” Many countries want that common currency. Folks are tired of corrupt central banks and if there is another currency option that is safe….(and they don’t have to worry about sanctions) would be a huge opportunity for many small countries.
Member: Ramadan in Iraq starts on March 10th and the revalue of Kuwait was March 25th during the middle of Ramadan

Article: "Al-Sudani reveals the intention to end the political role of the United Nations mission in Iraq" Do you notice how they're talking about removing the remaining US coalition forces and the United Nations together at the same time? That's because Iraq's going international. The UN has chapter VII sanctions on Iraq and the US has OFAC sanctions on Iraq... Both parties need to remove their sanctions off of Iraq... They're discussing doing both steps simultaneously at the same time. Not coincidence. It's because Iraq's preparing to revalue and go international.
Article: "Sudanese Advisor: Iraq is on the cusp of a transitional stage in the development of promising economies globally" Yeah, because they're about to revalue and go international...It is right in front of our faces...It's almost here. They needed the first quarter to prepare for it after achieving stability from the December elections. March is critical to us...
Specialist: Iraq's economic environment is qualified to attract international and Arab banks
Baghdad Today - Baghdad
Economist and professor of financial economics at the University of Baghdad, Humam Al-Shamma, confirmed on Monday (February 19, 2024) that Iraq's economic environment is qualified to attract international and Arab banks.
Shamma said, for "Baghdad Today", that "Iraq and its economic, even security and political environment is ready to attract international and Arab banks," considering that "this is an important step in order to develop the banking sector in Iraq, whether governmental or private, especially since there are international banks currently operating in Iraq. "
He stressed that "the work of any bank, even if it is global, must be in accordance with compliance with international standards in financial transfers, and any bank that violates this exposes itself to sanctions, whether the United States or even by the Central Bank of Iraq."
He pointed out that "attracting international banks should not be limited to countries alone, but must be inclusive without any discrimination, and this is applicable in all developed countries of the world."
Talk of attracting banks from outside the country comes with the continued ban of many Iraqi banks from dealing in dollars as a result of non-compliance with the controls of the Central Bank and the US Federal Bank.
