IRAQ ANNOUNCES THAT IT IS CLOSE TO PRODUCING 5 MILLION BARRELS PER DAY
Baghdad – Iraq Today:
Oil Minister Hayyan Abdul Ghani confirmed that Iraq is close to reaching an extraction capacity of up to 5 million barrels of oil per day, while revealing the current volume of gas production, indicating that Iraq is ranked 12th globally in the volume of storage.
Abdul Ghani said in a press interview that “the Iraqi oil industry plays an important role in shaping the future of the national economy, and plays a great responsibility in supplementing the economy and advancing its burdens, especially with its reliance mainly on oil amid serious and real attempts to diversify the national economy and its sources of income.”
He added that “the Ministry of Oil is approaching coherent steps to reach in the extraction sector an extraction capacity estimated at 5 million barrels per day despite serious restrictions on oil markets and restricting the quotas of OPEC countries in order to support the stability and balance of prices.”
(F.Y.I.) In 1991, Iraq’s crude oil production was approximately 2.5 million barrels per day. (Dinar at around 1 IQD = $3.22 USD)
Fast forward to 2023, the production had increased to around 4.22 million barrels per day (Dinar at around 1 IQD = $0.006)
(Do you see something fishy here? ☹ And now in 2024 they are announcing that it is close to 5 million barrels per day. Oh… but the dinar is still at 1/6 of a penny? It is like they are ignoring the oil assets already on hand in determining the rate of the dinar. Even before the 1991 invasion they were producing 2.5 million barrels per day and the dinar was around $3.22. Now they are producing twice as much oil. So what’s going on here?
I am not giving you this information to hype you up and get you all excited for the new rate. What rate? We still sit here over a year after war sanctions have been lifted. I am doing this to disgust you and make you angry in knowing how they are and have been artificially manipulating the dinar and playing games with Iraq’s wealth, thus the very lives of the people. This should make us all made and sick and tired. Hey…wait a second, aren’t they fully out or sanctions from the wars? So what the hell? ☹)

Government spokesman: We have adopted the principle of productive borrowing and integration into the international economic cycle, 9 APRIL
Government spokesman: We have adopted the principle of productive borrowing and integration into the international economic cycle
Government spokesman, Bassem Al-Awadi, said on Monday, April 8, 2024, that the government has followed the principle of productive borrowing and integration into the international economic cycle.
Al-Awadi issued a statement, seen by Ultra Iraq, which came as “an emphasis from the government on transparency in economic work, and informing public opinion and the national and international media of Iraqi economic performance.”
He added: “In light of the Council of Ministers’ approval of the recommendations of the Diwani Order Committee 23942, related to regulating external borrowing and structuring Iraqi public external debt, the government took a series of executive measures and adopted a package of financial decisions, which ended in reducing external public debt by more than 50%. The debt will decrease from $19.729 billion in late 2022, to $15.976 billion in 2023, reaching approximately $8.9 billion in the current year.”
Mazhar Muhammad Salih, the Sudanese advisor, spoke about “Iraq’s regularity in paying its external debts due annually, of which only approximately 20 billion dollars remain.”
Al-Awadi said, “These financial steps, (which included halting a number of borrowing operations due to their delay and unproductivity, organizing and managing debts and auditing them, and restructuring some debts and directing them to create strategic projects), aim to prevent the Iraqi economy from mortgaging obligations that may affect, in the future, the political decision.” Or in the path of national development, which coincides with an urban renaissance and infrastructure reconstruction, which opens the way to a promising future and a revitalized economy, in which our current and future generations perform best and obtain the greatest opportunities.
In its latest report , the International Monetary Fund warned of the doubling of debt in Iraq, through an increase in the deficit, as it expected “the public finance deficit to reach 7.6% in 2024 and to expand further after that with the expected gradual decline in oil prices in the medium term.” Leading to “a near doubling of public debt from 44% in 2023 to 86% by 2029.”
Al-Awadi pointed out that his government “organized the process of financing cooperation with the international community in specific contexts, including direct productive borrowing, providing sovereign guarantees to ensure the production of projects undertaken by the private sector for the benefit of the government, and sovereign guarantees provided by the government for the benefit of institutions that finance the Iraqi private sector importing production lines from In order to build factories inside Iraq.
He explained, "These steps pave the way for our country's further integration into the international economic cycle, and for the government to adopt the principle of productive borrowing only, which effectively leads to an increase in domestic product, and the financing of national service and productive projects with economic returns, in a way that ensures their completion and is not delayed."
He concluded by saying: “With these firm steps, the government renews its determination to continue making a qualitative shift in the Iraqi economy, in parallel with tangible development in the services, infrastructure and social care sectors, which are all the pillars required to meet the aspirations of our people throughout Iraq, and implement the government program with its priorities.” And its targets.
Iraq's external debt in 2021 amounted to about $13 billion, and it arose while financing the war on ISIS after 2015, as the government advisor stated 3 years ago. link
"IRAQ BANKS WILL OFFER BONDS TO THE PUBLIC" BY GOLDILOCKS, 9 APRIL
GOLDILOCKS
"This bank, on behalf of the Ministry of Finance, will offer bonds under the name ( Injaz Bonds ) to the public starting from 4/15/2024 until 5 / 15 / 2024"
Public bonds help to build the infrastructure of a country's businesses, and they go a long way in supporting a country's currency.
Getting public involvement in increasing the value of their own currency will help Iraq maintain a sustainable economy going forward.
Public bonds like these help to establish and secure a country's Sovereignty. This is a part of the process of Iraq reclassifying their currency.
Not long ago the CBI revealed to us that it would begin March 31st, 2024. They said it would be a gradual change. I copied the article for your review again on this matter.
"Based on the of the Board of Directors of this Bank number (191) of 2003 it was decided to give the mediation companies buying and selling foreign currencies under category (C) a period of time to merge to be classified as (A) or (b) until 3-31-24."
