Oil Announces Its Commitment To Voluntarily Reduce Exports
Energy Economy News – Baghdad On Monday, the Ministry of Oil announced its commitment to voluntarily reduce exports.
The ministry said in a statement, seen by Al-Iqtisad News, that “in confirmation of Iraq’s positions in support of the initiatives of the OPEC+ member states to maintain stability and balance in the oil market, the Iraqi Ministry of Oil confirms its commitment to the agreed upon voluntary reduction.”
She added, "Despite the reports received regarding the region's production outside of coordination and agreement with the federal government, and in order to address this, the Ministry of Oil took the initiative to reduce oil exports for the coming months to absorb the increase recorded in Iraq for the past months of January and February."
She pointed out that "coordination is being done with secondary sources to confirm this in their reports issued regarding the production rates of OPEC+ countries for the coming period."
“The term “redemption center” may be a little off. They are mainly different banks and banking facilities that are set up and will have equipment and trained personnel for exchanging foreign currency .
It may just be a bank branch with extra offices in your area. Some may be full blown centers in areas with many foreign currency holders. They have a good idea on demographics from who has bought what in areas.
But many location may just be say, an unused second floor that used to house mortgages or something like that.
A place they can set up machines to check and validate our currency with trained personnel for our exchanges.”

Member: Good morning everybody! Praying God’s many blessings to you all.
Member: Does anyone remember hearing years ago this will happen in the spring? It’s the first day of spring today…
Member: Hope springs eternal.
Member: With there being less and less news day by day….Maybe it’s getting closer to happening?
MZ: I think the news is getting restricted as we get closer. I think the quiet is a positive sign. A number of sources were given cautionary notices to be quiet or NDA’s. So to me it’s a great sign that things are quiet.
MZ: There are loads of unsubstantiated rumors out there …but nothing that can be verified.
MZ: Contacts in Iraq and around the world still think we are within days….but they have thought that before….so not going to jump out of my skin just yet. The quiet is probably the thing that is the most encouraging to me right now.
Member: Our best hope may be that Iraq has gotten sick of the US messing with them and just goes alone……then the rest of the world may go after them………
Member: Ramadan just started Mar 12 and goes 30 days. Maybe nothing until after that?
Member: Maybe Iraq need to RV before they go into Brics??
MZ: Yes news is a little slim…..MilitiaMan had a good one….a reminder that Iraq will be the savior of the world’s financial system. They clearly know their role in this process.
Member: I wonder when Sudani is coming to the US?
MZ: That’s a great question. I have heard everything from “he is here already covertly” to “he is coming on Thursday” I wish I could pin it down exactly. But, he is expected within this week.
Member: in 2022 you said a number of your bond holders had been paid. What do you believe now?
MZ: those were called swaps. They sold to private individuals or “speculators” . We are still waiting for Treasury/UST ect to start purchasing the historic bonds. That’s when we can get excited. But yes…back then there was some “bond flipping” going on.
Member: Are we waiting for any other discernible markers…? We keep hearing everything is ready… but… apparently that isn’t the case?
Member: Mr.C said that everything is going to happen all at once with the flip of a switch!
Member: A while back I put into my calendar that Q F S is fully implemented on Saturday the 23rd. Can’t remember the source but it was calendar worthy
Member: I would love to see a new USN note just to know they are real.
Member: There has been a lot of chatter about the new notes, and a lot of dates that have come and gone, and still nothing :-(. We have heard about bank employees saying they “have it in the vault” but still
Member: WF and other banks are launching a new payment processor called PAZE? Maybe its part of the QFS???
Member: Any updates on specimen sheets for the Iraqi lower denoms? Anyone leak a picture?
MZ: I have not had anyone leak a picture yet. I do have some lower denoms that were released in the Kurdish region…(Mark holds up a few notes) and the plan is to use those temporariy while they distribute the new bills.
Member: Mark, have you heard anymore about us having to pay a 35% tax when the RV happens on the dinar
Member: Frank26 still thinks we will be paying taxes.
Member: Noone will know until we get there I think……Hope for the best but prepare for the worst.
Member: They need to release the reset before Americans are forced to pay the cabal all their Tax money on April 15th….If Whitehats don’t want bad guys to get billions of our dollars….then do it before then !!
MZ: We don’t know everything going on in the background. But we are certainly frustrated with all of it.
Member: All I know is that time is ticking to the point of no return-we need this now!
Member: Easter the 31st, Eclipse the 8th ... let's git the show on the road!!
Member: Sunday will be the 33rd Kuwait anniversary.
Member: Thanks to all for encouragement. Just praying it happens soon….But hope and faith are hard to find right now.
