Policy Al-Ekti: There Is No Real Will To Pass The Oil And Gas Law
Information/Baghdad... On Friday, the member of the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan, Burhan Sheikh Raouf, confirmed that there is no real will to pass the oil and gas law and legislate it in parliament, despite the existence of an agreement in the State Administration Coalition to legislate it within 9 months of the beginning of Al-Sudani’s rule.
Sheikh Raouf told Al-Maalouma, "The Patriotic Union of Kurdistan seeks and stands by resolving all the problems between Baghdad and Erbil and passing the oil and gas law by the House of Representatives."
He added, "There is a need for an oil and gas law and finding solutions to the oil problems between Baghdad and Erbil according to the legal and constitutional frameworks and in cooperation and coordination between the federal and Kurdish governments."
He explained that "the delay in approving the oil and gas law is due to the lack of a real will to legislate it, despite the existence of an agreement within the State Administration Coalition to pass this law within 9 months of the formation of Al-Sudani's government, but the situation did not proceed as agreed upon."

EXCERPTS FROM MARKZ, 27 DEC
EXCERPTS FROM MARKZ
Member: there are a lot of rumors floating around.
MZ: As for rumors- they are definitely out there. I am hearing rumors from groups attached to Indian Nations that they are being told to prep for imminent release. It could be within days….. Similar mechanism are being re-enacted to when Kuwait RV’d. Some Indian Nations did very well when Kuwait revalued. This has me really excited.
MZ: “Iraqi Dinar falls a week before dollar selling platform closes” So auctions have not yet closed…but seems people are starting to panic. Many believe though that the dinar rate will increase to become more than a dollar …so they need to get through a little turbulence on the dinar RV stream
MZ: “Within days: business confused with the dollar exchange rates expected to rise in parallel market” Businesses are trying to figure out how to price things. The government created a committee to address how to reprice things for sudden value changes.
MZ: “Calls for Re-Evaluation on the cost of oil production in Kurdistan under the supervision of an international audit firm” Finally on the HCL….they are bringing an outside audit firm to determine the actual price of getting oil out. This has been a major sticking point keeping HCL from being settled. This should speed things up.
Foreign Policy: Demographic Gift Will Make Iraq A “Global Economic Power” With Washington’s Help, 27 DEC
Foreign Policy: Demographic Gift Will Make Iraq A “Global Economic Power” With Washington’s Help
Translated reports |Today Baghdad Today – Translation The American newspaper Foreign Policy, which is close to the White House, published a report today, Friday, December 27, 2024, on the population census prepared by the Iraqi government, stressing that the results of the census must be respected by all political parties in Iraq to prevent "dire consequences" and pave the way for "huge investment."
The newspaper said, according to what was translated by "Baghdad Today", that Iraq, which is now enjoying a "demographic gift" as a result of the high percentage of youth among its population, which has reached sixty percent, must invest properly by implementing plans and making decisions that improve the Iraqi economy and raise "investment and entrepreneurship rates and integrate the young workforce into the private sector through government initiatives that guarantee investment," according to its description.
She continued, "The United States must help the Iraqi government to exploit the demographic gift correctly and achieve appropriate economic investment in it to prevent the severe damage that Iraq will be exposed to, and consequently the United States and its interests in the country, if it fails to do so," noting that failure to invest the demographic gift correctly will lead to "high rates of unemployment, crime, and political and security instability."
The network also confirmed that Iraq would be a "huge regional and international economic power if it exploited its demographic gift as East Asian countries did, achieving what was known at the time as their economic miracle during the nineties by exploiting the youth and their high percentages in society."
The Foreign Policy report concluded by stressing that the Iraqi government, along with Washington, must ensure that Baghdad succeeds in exploiting its demographic gift during the coming period, stressing that the real test of the Iraqi government and regime’s ability to lead the country in a correct manner that guarantees continued international support will be after the announcement of the final results of the census expected during the next month.
On November 20 and 21, 2024, Iraq conducted a comprehensive population and housing census, including the Kurdistan Region, the first since 1987.
The Iraqi government announced the preliminary results of the census on the 25th of last month, where the population of Iraq reached more than 45 million people, including foreigners and refugees, and the percentage of the population of working age (15-64 years) reached 60.2%, so that Iraq has entered the demographic gift stage with the percentage of the population of working age reaching 60%.

ARIEL UPDATE, 27 DEC
ARIEL
who are anticipating the inevitable. Because based on this info below the CBI knows it is running out of time. These exchange companies are running against the clock.
They keep worrying about what Majeed is saying on X because they are trying to hide how much the salaries are by not disclosing the amount being paid to workers because people will figure out what the rate is.
And that will probably force their hands before they are ready to pull the trigger because they know that speculation will spike and citizens will go into a frenzy. And they are trying to control this by reducing exposure.
This is why they set up certain policies for citizens who attempt to take more Dinar than what they need out of the country to prevent them from taking advantage of the new exchange rate. Now they are scrambling.
I suggest you all prepare for this event by making sure you have all your currency in order. Making the neccessary phone calls to set up appointments. And other things you deem important to ensure things go smooth for you.
