NATO continues.. Blinken on the withdrawal agreement: We are arranging with Baghdad to maintain our partnership, 30 SEPT

 Shafaq News/ US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken revealed on Monday new details regarding the agreement between Baghdad and Washington to end the international coalition’s missions in Iraq, including working on bilateral security arrangements that allow for the preservation of the “security partnership” between all.

“Ten years ago, the United States assembled a global coalition of 87 countries to counter ISIS, and together we have made significant progress,” Blinken said in a speech at the ministerial meeting of the Global Coalition to Defeat ISIS.

The US Secretary of State stressed the need for the coalition to enhance security and stability, including in Iraq and Syria, and prevent extremists such as ISIS from exploiting the conflict in the region to their advantage.

“At today’s meeting, the United States and Iraq — along with our other coalition partners — will discuss our plans for the gradual transition of Operation Inherent Resolve, which will conclude in Iraq by September 2025. During this period, the United States will work with Baghdad on bilateral security arrangements that will allow us to maintain and build our security partnership and cooperation,” he added.

“Our Iraqi partners will take greater responsibility to ensure that ISIS cannot retake territory within the country’s borders, and we are deeply grateful to Iraq and the Iraqi Security Forces for all the sacrifices they have made in this effort, and for their steadfast leadership in the fight against ISIS,” Blinken continued.

As we move into this new phase of cooperation, the US Secretary of State expressed his hope to continue working with partners in the international coalition, including the NATO mission in Iraq, which intends to continue its security relationship with Baghdad.

In another matter, Blinken revealed the United States’ intention to contribute $168 million to the annual stabilization pledge campaign implemented by the international coalition in Iraq and Syria, so that this assistance will enable the implementation of critical mine clearance operations, the restoration of basic services such as water and electricity, investment in education, and the promotion of economic opportunities.

An expert reveals the reason for the fragility of the Iraqi market: Countries want imports to remain, 30 sept

  An expert reveals the reason for the fragility of the Iraqi market: Countries want imports to remain

 Today, Monday (September 30, 2024), economic expert Nasser Al-Kanani revealed the reason for the fragility of the Iraqi local market and its inability to confront any external problems.

Al-Kanani said in an interview with Baghdad Today, "The Iraqi local market is fragile and cannot face any external problems, as it depends only on foreign imports, and does not depend on local national production, and therefore the market is greatly affected by any external problems, and cannot face any of those problems, and therefore the Iraqi government must work seriously to restore local production so that the local market is strong and not affected by any regional or international problems and crises."

He added, "The Iraqi local market is considered one of the most important markets for many countries in the region and the world, to sell their materials in it, and it is not unlikely that there are countries working to keep the Iraqi market fragile and dependent on imports, instead of national production, and for this reason, throughout the past years, we have not seen any control of local products over the market."

Last March, the Central Bank of Iraq announced that “there is no return to the previous price of the dollar, and the price will not be reduced under any circumstances,” stressing that there is no intention to raise the price above 145,000 for every 100 dollars, which is the official Iraqi exchange rate.

The prices of basic foodstuffs doubled after the government devalued the dinar, and prices increased again, before rising again due to the rise in the price of the dollar .

The prices of some food items in Iraq have increased by between 25 and 75 percent, as the price of one kilogram of sugar rose from 1,000 dinars to 1,300 dinars in retail markets, a bottle of cooking oil from 1,500 to 3,000, and grains from 500-750 to 1,000-1,500 dinars  link

Three major takeaways from PM Sudani’s great efforts last week at the UN General Assembly:

1.) He announced the end of the currency auctions this year, not next year,

2.) Israel was waiting for the announcement of the currency auctions. Once they got it, you can see they started striking and are summarily taking out every bad guy in sight. Next up: Iraq/Iran for the grave surrender,

3.) The UN did appoint a new middleman to replace Jeannine, but notice you haven’t seen them at all and you probably won’t, since everything is coming to an end.

The Market Forces Committee, formed by Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani, recommended holding a joint Iraqi-Turkish forum in the capital, Baghdad.

The committee, which was formed by the Prime Minister by a Diwani order, consists of the Association of Private Banks, the Federation of Chambers of Commerce, the Iraqi-Turkish Business Council, and the Iraqi Contractors Union.

The statement added that the committee recommended developing economic relations with Turkey, by holding a joint Iraqi-Turkish forum under the auspices of the Prime Minister in Baghdad on the sidelines of the visit of the Turkish Minister of Trade to Baghdad scheduled for next November. 

The committee focused on working to support the establishment of the international development road, which would contribute to achieving a qualitative leap in international transportation, industry, and private sector contribution, and making Iraq a strategic corridor between the countries of Asia and Europe.

The committee pointed out the importance of solving the problems of the Iraqi and Turkish private sectors, which relate to financial transfers, customs, entry visas, and others, in a way that contributes to developing economic relations, stressing the committee’s openness to all forces of the Iraqi and Turkish market.  link
