Deputy: Al-Sudani will raise the issue of lifting sanctions against Iraqi banks in Washington
3/26/2024 Baghdad
The representative of the Coordination Framework, Arif Al-Hamami, confirmed that Prime Minister Muhammad Shiaa Al-Sudani sought to negotiate directly with American officials to withdraw their forces from Iraq and end the tasks of the international coalition.
Al-Hamami said in an interview followed by Mawazine News: “Al-Sudani will emphasize the security partnership and support of the Iraqi forces in the field of training and armament, and work to lift the American veto on Iraq’s contract to purchase advanced air defense systems,” indicating the existence of “an undeclared American veto so that The Iraqi sky is under American control and it penetrates it whenever it wants without any deterrent .”
Al-Hamami added, “Al-Sudani’s discussions in the White House will focus on the financial and economic file, especially related to the American sanctions on some Iraqi banks, and the impact of that on Iraq, and seeking to lift those sanctions and working to find a mechanism to pay Iraq’s foreign debts.”
The visit to Washington is considered a protocol procedure used by successive Iraqi government heads after the US invasion of Iraq in 2003, and it usually occurs in the first months of assuming office.
However, Al-Sudani’s visit, in his capacity as head of a government emerging from a political alliance (the Coordination Framework), which declared on more than one occasion his opposition to the United States and his work to remove its military presence from the country, may take it out of its usual context this time, especially since the files that Al-Sudani is carrying to Washington will not Be acceptable to America.

How are they going to attract foreign investment? They're going to open their borders with an International currency ... and they're going to rock and roll. The signs are everywhere. AlSudani recently said he was going to make a change to the dinar to 1.32 dinars to the dollar, which is about $0.76. But that doesn't include adding the Real Effective Exchange Rate.Parliamentary Finance: Budget tables arrive before the Eid holiday , 26 MARCH
