Republican lawmakers urge immediate US sanctions on Iraq

 Shafaq News/ On Wednesday, two Republican members of the US House of Representatives called for immediate sanctions on Iraq, accusing Baghdad of falling fully under Iranian influence and acting as a “puppet” of Tehran.

In a letter addressed to US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Representatives Joe Wilson of South Carolina and Greg Steube of Florida demanded a “comprehensive reassessment” of US-Iraq relations, urging the suspension of all American aid to the Iraqi government until “serious steps” are taken to curb Iran’s dominance. 

PAULETTE: I sure hope we are close

I am hopeful that perhaps the 1390 [Market Rate] target is to enact the Delete the Zeros project (RD/RV) resulting in an annihilation of the Market Rate

 This would then result in Article 8 obligation compliance in order to get to the RI stage. 

This would be congruent with the 2009 MOP/MOF report of "initially a rate of 1.14-1.18 and held there for a period" 

....prior to "restoring the true rate of 3.208." 

 I sure hope we are close.

Iraqi Parliament dismisses US lawmakers’ claims of Iranian influence

 Shafaq News/ The Iraqi Parliament’s Foreign Relations Committee on Thursday rejected recent accusations by members of the US Congress alleging Iranian influence over Iraq’s political and security institutions.

Two Republican lawmakers had called for a “comprehensive reassessment” of US–Iraq relations and urged the suspension of all American assistance to the Iraqi government until what they described as “serious steps” are taken to reduce Iranian involvement.


Committee member MP Mukhtar al-Moussawi told Shafaq News that such calls are not new and do not reflect the official position of the US administration. “These are media-driven appeals that lack any real substance,” he said.


“There is no Iranian hegemony over Iraq,” al-Moussawi stressed. “Iraq’s decisions and its relationship with Iran are similar to its relations with other countries in the region and around the world.”

He asserted that the US seeks strong relations with Iraq due to its strategic importance, and there is no indication of any intention to impose sanctions. “Ties between Baghdad and Washington are progressing across multiple levels and will not be affected by suspicious appeals from certain hardline figures in the US Congress.”

STATUS OF THE RV . PART.6 BY MNT GOAT

STATUS OF THE RV . PART.6 

The campaign focused on the concept of simplicity of use and security of the experience, removing the psychological and cultural barriers associated with fear of financial technology, especially in a country where a large portion of the economy still operates in cash and on the margins of banking. 

“Asreflak” gained double power because it wasn’t just a top-down decision, but rather the product of a need from below. Field monitoring showed that people were ready to embrace this change, but were waiting for trust, and now they have found it.

What more can I tell you today?

😊I find this next article interesting because once again Iraq is reinforcing the decline of the dollar. This time a finance committee member is telling us the real reasons why the decline. See article titled “THE PARLIAMENTARY FINANCE COMMITTEE EXPLAINS THE REASONS FOR THE DECLINE IN THE DOLLAR PRICE: IT IS NOT DUE TO GOVERNMENT MEASURES.”

 Member of the Parliamentary Finance Committee, Jamal Kocher, considered on Tuesday that talk about measures taken by the government that contributed to the decline in the dollar exchange rate against the Iraqi dinar is “incorrect.”

 “There are many reasons for this decline, the most prominent of these reasons is the stagnation of trade and the decline in demand for the dollar in the parallel market.” Feel free to read up on the other reasons for the decline in the full article in the Articles Section of the Newsletter.

 Remember that the current CBI “official” rate if the dinar is still at 1320 although there is some fluctuations in the ISX market to 1300-1310. The goal is still to get the parallel dollar market even with the “official” rate.

It has not yet happened but is making progress every day in that direction.

😊 Okay so now that we talked about the successful AML efforts we see that the exposure of more potential wealth for Iraq. Let’s study the article titled “HUGE UNTAPPED WEALTH… IRAQ’S TOP 5 MINES”. Just be reading the title I say WOW! WOW! WOW! But I have already talked about these other minerals to you many times already. So, today we get more details about them in this article.

Iraq’s five most prominent mines reveal a map of mineral wealth that remains untapped due to decades of security challenges that have led to the neglect of these resources.
According to a report published by the Energy Platform, Iraq’s most prominent minerals include “sulfur, phosphate, and rock salt, along with strategic minerals such as iron, manganese, zinc, and lead.” The report indicated that “despite the dominance of oil in the economy, Iraq boasts vast mineral resources concentrated in a number of mines.”

So, again lets summarize some of the wealth:

  • Oil revenues (realized and untapped)
  • Customs and Tariffs (can rival the oil revenues)
  • Tourism (hotels, holy shrines, pilgrimages, museums, etc)
  • Agriculture exports
  • Development Centers / Industrial Cities (soon to generate many exported products)
  • Untapped minerals (sulfur, phosphate, and rock salt, iron, manganese, zinc, lead and some rare earth minerals.)
  • Gold Mines in Iraq
  • What did I miss?

In summary, if any of my readers are gloomy today this Newsletter should cheer you up. I wish I could give you a date and a firm rate for the revaluation, but this will never happen. But what I can give you is HOPE. I mean realistic HOPE with FACTS and TRUTH not some intel guru every day / any day bullshit. This AML effort was a critical part for Iraq and effected the three Pillars of Financial Reforms. If you read today’s articles, they all sound like reforms of the past. In other words, already completed.

WALKINGSTICK: The United States of America is working on an act. The act is called Free Iraq from Iran

Walkingstick

  The United States of America is working on an act. 

 The act is called Free Iraq from Iran.  It's a congressional act.  HR-2658.

  It was done on April 3, 2025.

 Walkingstick 

  Yesterday they made a statement at the Baghdad summit.  

This Baghdad summit is a stage IMO to show off to every that is interested in the potential of Iraq's future.  Not right now, but as soon as they release the new exchange rate...Sudani...

said Iraq is a Recovered nation....They have a recovered monetary reform...monetary  policy... investment opportunity...recovered their banks...infrastructure...

They have recovered 1310 and in doing so IMO have a recovered exchange rate.  

This is part of the recovery to say to the world and Iraqi citizens that the recovery of their monetary policy was successful.
