World Court Greenlights Iraq's RV: What It Means

DINAR REVALUATION REPORT: World Court Approval for RV Initiation in Iraq 2024, 8 SEPT

 World Court Approval for RV Initiation in Iraq 2024

In a significant development, the World Court in The Hague has given the final okay for the RV (Revaluation) to start in Iraq as of 2024. 

 This decision comes amidst a period of relative stability for the nation, following decades of armed conflict. Iraq has experienced its most stable period since before the US-led invasion in 2003, although the country still faces challenges such as political division and unresolved grievances from the 2019 mass protests.

Under Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani's leadership, Iraq has attempted to address key issues including corruption, unemployment, poverty, economic reform, and improving government services. 

His government has also made progress in implementing the Yazidi Survivors Law and enacting a Civilian Protection Policy, although political infighting has hindered the passage of legislation aimed at protecting Iraqis' rights. 

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has indicated that Iraq's economic growth is projected to continue, albeit with significant medium-term vulnerabilities to oil price volatility.   

Reducing oil dependence and ensuring fiscal sustainability will be crucial, as will facilitating private sector development through reforms in the labor market, financial sector, and restructuring of state-owned banks.

Iraq's Path Forward

Iraq has made several positive strides in respecting and upholding human rights, which are essential for a stable society. However, the country must address the grievances of its citizens more urgently, especially in light of the worsening climate crisis that underscores the need for economic transition and diversification away from fossil fuels. 

In June 2023, Iraq's parliament approved a three-year annual budget of 198.9 trillion Iraqi dinars (US$153 billion), the largest in the country's history.  This budget is intended to support the government's efforts in combating corruption, addressing unemployment, reducing poverty, reforming the economy and finances, and improving government services.

World Court's Role

The World Court's approval for the RV to start in Iraq signifies international recognition of the country's progress and stability. This decision is likely to have significant economic implications for Iraq, potentially leading to increased foreign investment and economic activity.

ABOUT THE IRAQ FINANCIAL REFORMS WITH GINGER AND HELICOPTER LADY, 8 SEPT

  Fascinating conversation with my good friend, Helicopter Lady, Liberty Lounger Extraordinaire ~ who has a fabulous handle on all things Iraq Financial Reforms & shared with permission 馃檹 9.7.24 


馃挗 Helicopter Lady: I think every element involved is fulfilling its final requirements to be in-line for the floodgates to open. 


Example - I do believe Iraq has the ongoing problem of not being able to pay all their government employees. Historically, they used to be paid in US dollars, so it was no problem; but since they made a commitment to pay in (IQD) Dinars, they don't have enough dinars in Baghdad. 


Why? 馃 


Because speculators in The Camper Event - those of us around the world in Tier 3 and Tiers 4 A/B have the dinars!! 馃榿馃榿馃榿馃榿


Iraq's solution, of course, is to finally revalue, but they are waiting for a couple of things -- chicken or the egg 馃グ: ⬇️✅


1. They need a public commitment from the US for the troops to leave, but Trump insists on getting paid before any troops leave Iraq.


2. At the same time, WTO wants a commitment from Iraq that it can meet its obligations before they are officially admitted into the WTO.


3. The World Court in the Hague gives the final okay for the RV to start, and it's waiting for Iraq to have public commitments for the aforementioned items 1 and 2. 


So we have an interesting situation here. It's the chicken or the egg kind of dance. 馃槢馃槤馃槅 Somebody has to budge! 馃槀馃槀


The irony to note is that the Iraqis can't print anymore Dinar because the dinar is gold backed.

Pentagon comments on Baghdad-Washington agreement announcement on international coalition withdrawal, 8 SEPT

  A Pentagon official said that they are aware of reports that have appeared in the media regarding possible plans to withdraw US forces from Iraq, but they are not yet ready to announce any specific dates.

“We are aware of these reports, but we are not yet ready to announce any steps at this time,” the US official said.
Western media outlets had previously reported that the United States and Iraq had reached an agreement on the gradual withdrawal of US-led international coalition forces from Iraq in 2025 and 2026. The
Iraqi Foreign Ministry confirmed in the middle of last month that Baghdad had announced the postponement of the date for announcing the end of the US-led international coalition’s mission due to “recent developments” in the region and the aggression on the Gaza Strip.
