Expert determines the reasons for the expectations of economic growth in Iraq reaching more than 5% in 2026
The economist, Qusay Safwan, identified the reasons for the expectations of reaching economic growth in Iraq to more than 5% in 2026.
Safwan {Euphrates News} said: “The expectations of the International Monetary Fund went towards the external outlook of the Iraqi economy in light of the success of the Sudanese government of Mohammed Shiaa by reducing foreign debts from 20 million dollars to 9 million dollars, which gives a sloom to the situation of the Iraqi economy for the coming years, considering that the benefits of those debts will be low.”
He added,
“There are also projects initiated by the Sudanese government at the level of stopping the burning of gas and the associated gas investment in the supply of electricity in the sense of reducing cash outflows to reduce the import of electricity and gas, as well as completing the port of Al-Faw in mid-2025 and entering the stage of operating experiments to link it with the European Union.”
“This means adding non-oil revenues and these indicators indicate a positive outlook that can contribute to the reclassification of Iraq’s credit from the level of C3 Plus to the level of PEMinas,” Safwan continued, noting “the possibility of increasing Iraq’s GDP to 5% if initiatives are added by the Central Bank in the payment of small and medium enterprises and is currently at a rate of 270 billion dollars annually.”
He added, “Iraq is currently considered a partner with the International Finance Corporation as it is trying to rebuild Iraqi airports and there are two billion dollars that will be pumped to develop and expand Baghdad International Airport, and this indicates that Iraq’s ability to operate these amounts and return them to lenders.”
Safwan stressed that “the process of developing the energy sector at the level of gas and oil through licensing rounds will contribute to increasing Iraq’s future revenues, as it looks at 6 million barrels for export purposes, meaning that there is a possibility to increase the spending capacity of oil revenues on investment projects,” noting “the importance of turning understandings into a studied reality in the field of foreign investment.”
The World Bank predicted that Iraq will achieve economic growth of more than 5% in 2026, noting that the recovery in the oil sector in 2025 will contribute significantly to boosting this growth.
In its report, the bank reported that Iraq’s economic growth for 2022 was 7.6%, and in 2023 it fell to -2.9.
The report also predicted that Iraq’s economic growth in 2024 will decline to -0.3%, and achieve growth in 2025 to 3.8%, and in 2026 to reach 5.3%.
The report noted that non-GCC oil exporting countries, such as Iraq and Algeria, will benefit from the expected recovery in the oil sector in 2025, which will help boost economic growth in these countries.

"RV UPDATE" BY PIMPY, 2 JULY
Pimpy
Article: "Customs complete the first phase of the automation project and reveals its revenues within 5 months" They've been kept in the dark ages for a long time. Everybody was doing everything by paper and pencil and it was kept that way for a reason...Banking and other institutions are seeing their companies change with this new technology are going to be excited.
It's going to make their work a lot more efficient...it's only going to get better for Iraq. This is one of those way they can generate revenue other than from oil. This is exactly what they need to diversify. Quote "revenue rate will raise by the end of this year to 200% from what it was in 2022." That's a hell of an increase...it's going to boom over there..
--
I'm going to tell you the truth. Here's the truth, Iraq has taken major strides and getting their crap together. Is the Iraqi dinar going to go up in value? Yes it will. Is it going to happen tomorrow? Is is happening over in Europe? Is it happening over in Brazil or China? No, no it's not. There is no in-county/out-country rate. No one group of people has had dinar exchanged. Nobody's got their blessing...
--
Article: "Expert likely to keep exchange rates within their current rates" It's not going to happen that quickly. There's so many more hurdles for Iraq to jump through.
--
I challenge any content creators out that's making videos about the dinar...to...a debate...Bring your receipts. Bring your proof that I'm wrong and I'll bring my proof why I say I'm right. That's all you have to do. It's not that hard...Remember that I challenged people out there...I would give them $5,000 if they could...have a debate with me and prove me wrong about anything that I'm saying...How many people showed up?
Zero.

LATEST FROM CBI CONTACT INTEL VIA MNT GOAT, 1 JULY
MNT GOAT
My contact told me that the Project to Delete the Zeros is planned for the beginning of the 3rd stage of the economic plan. What does this mean. In fact, I did not fully understand it either until this article was published.
We learned through this article that that 3rd stage begins mid-year 2024.
Is Iraq ever completely on time?
We must give them a break since they are working against all odds in getting these reforms done. As we can also read in the news there is pressure against the economic reforms from Iranian politicians and seeded officials within the parties. It is an uphill battle for Iraq to achieve progress. So, the CBI may not meet their target for being right on time in June but even this summer sometime would certainly be considered “at the beginning of the 3 rd phase since the phase extends out to 2026. Do you understand? Everything is not exact. They target and then they make the best of it. But they will do it, as I am told.
Yes, no different than what is now going on over in the USA with the democrats. Look at the democrats and some republicans too as deep state globalist. Their concentration is bent on manipulation of the system to their advantage and not about citizenship to preserve the US Constitution, values and way of life in America. They are not patriots but leaches of the system. So we see the same in Iraq and as with the USA we must also just ignore the lies and propaganda and continue to march onward with our goals and that is to bring the prosperity and abundance back to our nations, while weeding out the corrupt and bringing them to justice.
Even though it is close to the end of June I would certainly not despair about the high possibility of still seeing the project to delete the zeros and then we know the reinstatement will follow. So far there is no news out to the public about the swap out of the currencies. I would think we would have seen these types of articles already if June was going to happen.
The good news is we can see the huge efforts to get the ATMs installed.
My contact even told us again as well as a past article by the CBI that the ATMs are an integral part of the swap out process of the currencies. I explained why this is the case already in my last Newsletter dated 6/25. I suggest you revisit it again.
Okay, so we might or might not get the RV in June and so let’s not cry in our beer… lol.. lol.. lol..
