Guys, whenever Iraq puts out/release their daily News Articles, that means it’s already done/completed & they (Govt) are further along with what they printout release for us to dissect & read.
It’s ILLEGAL for the IRAQ Govt to tell us vocally or in print the date/rate beforehand.
The Iraqi Govt already has the NEW Dinar rate, however they are making us investors/Iraqi citizens wait for certain events to take place first & their perfect date to release it & give us the NEW rate.
It’s INEVITABLE & WE WILL HAVE THE LAST LAUGH haters!!!
