Washington cuts off Tehran

3/20/2025

 

The US Treasury Department announced on Thursday the imposition of new sanctions related to Iran's oil and petrochemical sectors. These sanctions included one individual and several entities and vessels, including the Tiboot oil refinery, which it considered "the Iranian regime's main economic lifeline."

The Treasury Department stated on its official website that the sanctions included the China-based Tibo Oil Refinery and its CEO, Wang Xueqing, for purchasing and refining Iranian crude oil worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

The sanctions also included 19 entities and vessels responsible for shipping millions of barrels of Iranian oil, forming part of Iran's "shadow fleet" that transports oil.

"Tibut Refinery's purchases of Iranian oil are the primary economic lifeline for the Iranian regime, which is the world's leading state sponsor of terrorism," said US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.

He added, "The United States is committed to cutting off the sources of revenue that enable Tehran to continue financing terrorism and developing its nuclear program."

Iran uses extensive networks of tankers and ship management companies to export oil, according to the Treasury Department, using tactics such as falsifying documents and disrupting ship tracking systems.

The sanctions block all property and interests in the United States of these entities, prohibit transactions with these parties by U.S. persons or residents of the United States, and impose civil or criminal fines on violators.

GOLDILOCKS: 🚨SHOCKING NEWS: RV STOP'S because of the Digital Dinar & CBDC?, 23 MARCH

 GOLDILOCKS: 🚨SHOCKING NEWS: RV STOP'S because of the Digital Dinar & CBDC?

Highlights

Summary

In the latest episode of “Goldilocks Global Banking News,” host Freedom Fighter provides significant insights into the developments surrounding the Iraqi dinar, specifically focusing on the introduction of the digital dinar by the Central Bank of Iraq (CBI).

 The digital dinar is expected to be backed by the CBI, marking a potential shift in monetary control over the Iraqi currency.

 Freedom Fighter emphasizes the advantages for members of the Goldilocks community, who benefit from trust accounts set up at tier one banks without any fees, allowing for efficient currency exchanges while minimizing tax implications.

 The host elucidates the distinction between retail and wholesale Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), indicating that discussions of the digital dinar primarily relate to international transactions and do not directly impact individual currency holders or privacy concerns.

 As Iraq transitions to a more digital banking system, Freedom Fighter reassures that this move will strengthen the Iraq dinar and facilitate the upcoming revaluation (RV) of currencies. 

The podcast encourages listeners to actively participate by joining the Goldilocks community to access these beneficial financial tools and updates. Ultimately, Freedom Fighter portrays the digital dinar initiative as a significant step towards a more robust Iraqi economy and a favorable development for existing dinar holders.

  • 💰 Trust Accounts for Free: Goldilocks community members are able to set up trust accounts without incurring fees, a considerable benefit compared to market prices.
  • 📊 Digital Dinar Backed by CBI: The Central Bank of Iraq plans to introduce a digital dinar that will be backed by the central bank, giving Iraq more control over its currency.
  • 🌍 Importance of CBDCs: There’s a clear differentiation between retail and wholesale CBDCs, highlighting their different roles in the banking system.
  • 🔍 Privacy Concerns Addressed: The introduction of the digital dinar does not negatively impact the privacy of dinar holders or residents in Iraq.
  • 💳 Increased Digital Banking Usage: The podcast notes a significant increase in the use of digital banking among the Iraqi population, from 19% to 50%.
  • 💡 Preparation for Currency Revaluation: The rollout of the digital dinar is viewed as an essential step toward the revaluation of the Iraqi dinar.
  • 🌱 Global Banking System Integration: The move to a digital currency aligns Iraq with global financial systems, potentially increasing the value and stability of the dinar.

Key Insights

  • 💹 Trust Account Accessibility: The significant access to trust accounts without fees for community members showcases a strategic alignment with tier one banks, creating a robust support system. This underscores the potential for wealth preservation and growth among those engaged in currency exchange, allowing participants to plan generational wealth strategies without incurring usual costs.

  • 🔄 Central Bank Control: By backing the digital dinar with the CBI, Iraq’s government gains enhanced control over currency issuance and policy-making. This could stabilize the economy, manage inflation, and create a more secure economic environment for both local and foreign investments, reflecting a global shift towards economically empowered central banks.

  • 🏦 Understanding CBDC Types: Understanding the difference between retail and wholesale Central Bank Digital Currencies is crucial for grasping the implications of the digital dinar. The emphasis on wholesale transactions entails that the discussed regulations and changes in banking practice will predominantly affect interbank transactions rather than individual consumers on the ground, thereby mitigating individual exposure to potential disadvantages associated with CBDCs.

  • 🌐 Implications for Privacy: As the podcast discusses, the significance of privacy is often at the forefront of CBDC conversations. However, Freedom Fighter reassures that Iraq’s digital dinar will focus on facilitating transactions between central banks, reducing the likelihood of invasive measures affecting general dinar holders. This presents a more built-out digital economy framework while fostering trust in the transition process.

  • 📈 Rapid Digital Banking Adoption: Iraq’s increase in digital banking participation from 19% to 50% exemplifies a significant market shift towards digital currency adoption. This swift transition enhances financial inclusion, improves transactional efficiency, and enables a new generation of Iraqis to participate in a rapidly globalizing economy.

  • 📅 RV Preparation Timeline: The rollout of the digital dinar serves as preparatory groundwork for the revaluation (RV) of the Iraqi dinar.

     This connection between digital banking initiatives and currency valuation may signal to investors and holders that changes in value are on the horizon, encouraging active participation from current dinar holders in the era of digital currency.

  • 🚀 Global Integration of Financial Systems: The introduction of the digital dinar positions Iraq within a global framework of digital currencies, potentially paving the way for increased international trade and investment. As indeed indicated, aligning with global banking strategies could foster a favorable environment for economic development, improve the country’s financial stability, and enhance international relations.

In summary, the insights shared within the podcast highlight how Iraq’s introduction of the digital dinar serves multiple facets of economic control and growth, while also providing resources for community members to ensure their financial wellbeing during the currency transition. The perspectives provided by Freedom Fighter on the Goldilocks podcast are aimed at informing and guiding listeners toward seizing beneficial opportunities within a changing economic landscape.

Iraq achieves positive indicators in electronic collections.


3/21/2025

 

- Baghdad
 

The Prime Minister's financial advisor, Mazhar Mohammed Saleh, confirmed on Friday that positive indicators in electronic tax collections will be evident throughout the current fiscal year 2025.

 

“Although digital tax collection began last year, 2024, in a gradual and effective manner, achieving a leap in these collections, exceeding 6 trillion dinars in the aforementioned fiscal year, is an indicator that reinforces the phenomenon of maximizing the growth of cash flow through digital systems to support the unified treasury account within a high-level and quality digital network connection and in the interest of consolidating general budget revenues, which is something we expect to take broader growth levels in collecting non-oil revenues in the current year,” Saleh told the official agency, followed by “Al-Eqtisad News.”
 
He added, "These positive indicators in electronic collections will occupy a comprehensive space in the current fiscal year, reflecting the development of state revenues as a result of the accelerated transition to the use of electronic systems, which often leads to increased efficiency, reduced corruption, and improved transparency in the collection process. They represent an optimal application of the government program in one aspect of e-governance, namely the public finance aspect, which is strongly moving towards the use of modern information and communications technology systems to achieve the country's financial policy objectives of accurately and sustainably collecting non-oil resources, mostly without harmful time delays. "

You should be proud of yourselves.  You invested in the Iraqi dinar. 

Not proud of yourselves that you're going to make a profit, you should be proud of yourselves because whether you know it or not you helped Iraqi citizens. 

 Look, you bought a "stock" called the Iraqi 3-zero note for a "dividend" called the Real Effective Exchange Rate from a "company" called Iraq.  Every time you did that you gave them purchasing power because you bought it with the American dollar...You have kept Iraq and especially the citizens afloat.. .

Iraqi Forces Thwart ISIS Plot, Arrest Key Operatives

 

3/21/2025

ERBIL  –

Iraqi security forces captured two ISIS operatives in Sulaiman Beg on Friday, disrupting what officials described as an imminent terrorist plot targeting the region, security sources confirmed to Kurdistan 24.

In a counter-terrorism development, Iraqi forces apprehended two ISIS militants in Sulaiman Beg township who were allegedly plotting multiple explosions and terrorist acts across the area. The arrests come in the immediate aftermath of two suicide bombings that claimed several lives over the past 48 hours.

According to the security source, who spoke on condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity of ongoing operations, the two suspects were part of a larger ISIS cell responsible for coordinating recent attacks in the region.

"These individuals were directly connected to the suicide bombings earlier this week and were preparing additional attacks that could have resulted in significant civilian casualties," the source told Kurdistan 24.

The successful operation represents the latest effort in Iraq's ongoing campaign against ISIS remnants that continue to operate in various parts of the country despite the territorial defeat of the terrorist organization in 2017.

Sulaiman Beg, located in Saladin Province approximately 90 kilometers south of Kirkuk, has previously been a flashpoint for terrorist activity due to its strategic location and diverse demographic makeup.

Iraqi security officials have intensified counter-terrorism operations across central and northern provinces in recent months following intelligence reports suggesting ISIS was attempting to reconstitute its operational capabilities in rural areas.

The source added that security forces seized explosive materials and communication devices during the raid, providing valuable intelligence about potential ISIS networks still active in the region.
