MOFA welcomes UK decision to downgrade Iraq’s security rating

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs – MOFA welcomed on Tuesday the UK’s decision to downgrade Iraq’s security rating.

“MOFA welcomes the UK’s decision to reclassify Iraq’s security rating.  This step is considered an important achievement that reflects the significant improvement in the security situation and the Iraqi government’s ongoing efforts to achieve stability and enhance a safe and encouraging environment for investment and work,” said the ministry in a statement – received by the Iraqi News Agency – INA.

The statement added that “reducing the security rating will open the way for British companies to enter the Iraqi market. The decision will contribute to reducing the costs of travel and work insurance, which enhances opportunities for economic and investment cooperation between Iraq and the United Kingdom.”

“In this context, the ministry calls on other Western countries, including the United States of America, Canada, and the European Union countries (Germany, France, Belgium, Italy, Austria, and the Netherlands), to reconsider their security ratings for Iraq, and the ministry encourages these countries to take similar steps that support Iraq’s efforts to enhance economic cooperation,” said the Ministry’s statement.

MOFA confirmed that “Deputy PM and Minister of Foreign Affairs Fuad Hussein will work to send official messages to the concerned countries, urging them to review their security classifications of Iraq in line with the positive developments and the noticeable improvement in the security situation.” 

“MOFA renewed commitments to working with its international partners to strengthen bilateral relations and provide an appropriate environment for expanding cooperation in various fields, in a way that serves common interests and enhances stability and development in Iraq and the region,” included in the statement.

Greetings.

Your letter No. 1 dated 1/5/2025 regarding banks that refuse to receive small denomination banknotes and the (5,000) dinar denomination.

We would like to inform you that the instructions of this bank stipulate that Iraqi banknotes are homogeneous in their various categories, have absolute legal tender and are accepted by the Central Bank of Iraq, its branches, banks, institutions and the public. Discrimination between their categories by imposing a certain category on the public or refusing to receive a certain category is unacceptable and is considered a violation of the law.

We hope you will provide us with the names of the violating banks that refused to receive banknotes. With appreciation. link

 Hi guys I like to offer a incredible thank you to an incredible humanitarian Charlie Ward as he was always right that nothing was going to happen till Biden is removed from power and he told me that two years ago and he never ever waived from that.

 I should’ve listen to him and stayed on that course. Most of the Intel during all this time was total disinformation to catch the bad guys and I suppose people like myself were used to deliver disinformation not to harm you but to catch these criminals. 

Today Tues. 21 Jan. 2025  everything starts. I was told but not confirmed that notifications will start tonight and if it does happen the opera will be up.

 God bless you all we are finally here. Wolverine
