Al-Hassan from Karbala: Iraq is not a poor country and is open to foreign investment.

- Karbala
The Special Representative of the Secretary-General for Iraq, Mohammed Al-Hassan, praised Iraq's policy of disassociation from recent conflicts in the region on Saturday, stressing that the country is now open to foreign investment to improve its economic situation.
"What I witnessed in Karbala today is a vivid picture of a united Iraq," Al-Hassan said in a joint press conference with Karbala Governor Nassif Jassim Al-Khattabi, attended by a Shafaq News Agency correspondent. "What we witnessed embodies the meaning of national belonging, and that this belonging is above all considerations." He added, "The stability achieved in Iraq did not come by chance, but is the fruit of a collective will and precious sacrifices."
He stressed that "Iraq is not a poor country, but rather a country of goodness, with trained, educated and cultured human resources, not only at home but also abroad. Iraq has scientists of both genders, even at NASA, and they are distinguished." He added that "Iraq has distanced itself from the surrounding political problems, and in light of that, we only expect to see a strong Iraq with a regional and global standing."
Al-Hassan continued, saying, "Iraq's message now is no longer one of war and conflict, but rather one of peace, construction, progress, and development," noting that "Iraq is safe, secure, and open to foreign and international investment."

A Government Delegation From The Region Arrives In Baghdad, And An Oil Agreement Is Imminent Today
A Government Delegation From The Region Arrives In Baghdad, And An Oil Agreement Is Imminent Today.
Time: 2025/07/07 11:24:11 Reading: 945 times {Political: Al Furat News} An informed source revealed that a delegation from the Kurdistan Regional Government arrived in Baghdad to hold talks with Iraqi officials regarding the draft agreement between the two sides.
According to the source, the delegation includes Acting Minister of Natural Resources Kamal Mohammed, Cabinet Secretary Amanj Rahim, and Head of the Coordination and Follow-up Office Abdul Hakim Khosro.
The delegation's visit comes as Baghdad has prepared a final draft of the agreement to re-export oil and is awaiting Erbil's response, which is expected today.
A source familiar with the Baghdad-Erbil negotiations, who preferred to remain anonymous due to the sensitivity of the issue,
reported yesterday that a draft agreement on the delivery and export of oil was in its final stages. He noted that the most significant amendment to the agreement entails the delivery of all oil produced in exchange for the federal government securing the Kurdistan Region's petroleum product needs.
The source in the Kurdistan Regional Government indicated that the draft agreement stipulates that a delegation from the Ministry of Oil will be sent to the region for two purposes: first, to determine the actual level of oil production, and second, to assess the extent of local needs for petroleum products such as kerosene, gasoline, and diesel, which the federal government will provide according to the agreement.
It is worth noting that the Kurdistan Region's oil exports via the Turkish port of Ceyhan have been halted since March 25, 2023, while the amendment to the budget law entered into force on February 17 with the aim of removing obstacles to the resumption of these exports.
Under the amendment, a consulting firm will assess the costs of extracting and transporting Kurdistan's oil. Until this assessment is completed, Baghdad will temporarily pay $16 per barrel to oil companies as operating costs. LINK

Possible reasons for ban
To date, the Central Bank of Iraq has not issued an official statement detailing the reasons for banning these banks from dealing in dollars.
However, financial sources and banking sector observers point to the possibility of a link between this decision and US or international sanctions on some of these institutions,
in addition to potential violations related to: money launderingsmuggling hard currency illegal transfers
Failure to comply with financial compliance and banking oversight standards
The repercussions of the decision on the Iraqi economy
This ban comes at a time when the Iraqi economy is suffering from several pressures, including the decline in the value of the Iraqi dinar and fluctuating dollar prices in the local market, which could lead to: The complexity of transactions for companies and individuals dealing with these banks.
Increased demand on the black market for dollar exchange, with the accompanying financial risks. Undermining confidence in the local banking system, especially among private banks facing the threat of sanctions.
Calls for more transparency
Economists believe the Central Bank of Iraq should issue a transparent statement explaining the true reasons behind these decisions, along with a clear plan to address the financial issues related to the banks in question.
Some MPs have also called for the formation of a parliamentary investigation committee to monitor the violating banks and ensure the protection of citizens' funds.
in conclusion
All eyes are on the Central Bank of Iraq's next steps regarding banks banned from dealing in dollars.
Will additional sanctions be imposed, or are these merely temporary measures to regulate the market and improve financial oversight? What impact will this have on the stability of the banking system and the Iraqi economy in general?
