LATEST UPDATE FROM DINARLAND @DINARREVALUATION

"THEY ARE TESTING THE SYSTEMS WITH THE WHALES" BY DR. TOM , 29 OCT

 Dr. Tom 

Sunday Oct. 27, 2024


We were told a few days ago that the final filing was made with the world courts, the US Treasury and the Department of Defense and the first wave of funding will come sometime this month.


They had a problem last week with the cabal who we were told removed some of the gold but got caught.


The launch codes will be submitted next week and they are testing the systems with the whales.


Again, it may happen next week, but I don't think anything will happen until after the election. The process will start, there will be no delays, I know we all want it now, but I don't see this happening until after the new president comes on the scene in January, but hopefully much sooner.


I don't think this will go past January. I really don't see it now, but I think we're getting very close.

New details for the 2025 budget schedules. Check it out

Economy News – Baghdad

The government confirmed that the 2025 budget will remain in the range of 200 trillion dinars, despite the demands of the Parliamentary Finance Committee to reduce it to comply with the expected financial revenues for next year.

In this context, the Prime Minister’s Advisor for Financial Affairs, Mazhar Mohammed Saleh, explained that “the 2025 budget will continue to be linked to the constants approved in the federal general budget law for the three years (2023-2024-2025), which was previously submitted by the government and approved by the House of Representatives.”

Saleh stated that “next year’s budget will include a hypothetical deficit of 64 trillion dinars,” noting that “this deficit is a hedging deficit that has been approved by law to deal with fluctuations in revenues, especially oil, which is affected by changes in global energy prices and the cycle of oil assets.”

He added that “the total spending ceiling will approach 200 trillion dinars, according to the financial and economic conditions of the country.”

He pointed out that “the price of a barrel of oil in the trilateral budget, which includes the 2025 budget, was set at $70. If the price of oil exceeds this level, this will reduce the percentage of the expected default deficit in the budget.”
