"RV UPDATE" BY MILITIAMAN, 21 SEPT

 Militia Man 

 During this time-frame we had some key components that were needed to be sorted.  We've been talking about this for a while - the 23, 24, 25 tripartite budget has not been spending any money, hasn't allocated any money...that's going to be resolved.  

This U.N. assembly goes on for quite a few days...it goes all the way out to the 23rd and then a final day on the 26th.  Iraq is going to showcase themselves this next Friday.
 Al Sudani going to New York for a week to cut deals?  Maybe.  We'll see how that turns out...

Everything we've been seeing...is showing Iraq is going to have a big week.  

Al Sudani is set to arrive in New York on the 18th.  I would imagine there's going to be sideline deals.  If you look at the lineup from the U.N...Iraq is slated [to speak] on Friday the 22nd...Iraq is coming out to the world and we're going to be a part of it.  I'm really excited to see it...

Conflicting expectations for dollar prices…and talk of a “big shock”, 21 SEPT

 Conflicting expectations for dollar prices…and talk of a “big shock”

Conflicting expectations for dollar prices...and talk of a big shockShafaq News/ The visit of the Iraqi Prime Minister, Muhammad Shiaa Al-Sudani, to the United States of America is important in terms of its timing, which coincides with the crisis of the rise in the dollar exchange rate, amid high hopes that Iraqis have for the possibility of finding solutions to this issue.

Al-Sudani left for New York to participate in the meetings of the United Nations General Assembly, at its seventy-eighth session, and met on the sidelines of his participation in the meetings with US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, who was issued an official invitation by US President Joe Biden to visit the White House.
This comes at a time when the dollar exchange rates in Iraqi local markets are witnessing unstable jumps until they approached 160 thousand dinars per 100 dollars, for internal and external reasons, as attributed by specialists.
In this context, a member of the Iraqi House of Representatives, Firas Al-Muslimaoui, says, “The House of Representatives hosted the Governor of the Central Bank following the rise in the dollar exchange rate, and he explained that the reasons for the rise are due to internal and external factors.”
Internal factors
Al-Muslimaoui explained to Shafaq News Agency, “Internal factors include those related to merchants escaping taxes and purchasing dollars from the black market, and among them are administrative obstacles, some of which require those who take dollars to register a company.”
He added, “The Central Bank sought to address these obstacles, and decided to allow individuals, not companies, to buy dollars if they supply goods, provided that they are committed to ensuring that the goods are of the country’s need, real, and have official receipts.”
The third factor, according to Al-Muslimaoui, is that “the Central Bank submitted a proposal to the Prime Minister to reconsider the tax rate imposed on existing goods and reduce it, to encourage the merchant to buy through official methods.”
He continues, “The fourth factor is smuggling. There is security work and large gangs have been arrested for smuggling dollars out of Iraq.”
External factors
The representative points out that “external factors are related to the US Treasury policy, and these are outside the management of the Central Bank, so it is expected that the dollar exchange rate will be one of the issues that the Prime Minister will discuss in his current visit.”
At the conclusion of his speech, Al-Muslimaoui expected that “the dollar exchange rate will witness a gradual decline over the next few days, in a way that does not affect the Iraqi market.”
Continuous rise
On the other hand, the researcher in financial affairs, Ahmed Fouad Shukri, believes that “the dollar will continue to rise due to the government not taking real measures to curb its rise, but rather was content with some preventive or precautionary measures.”
Shukri explained to Shafaq News Agency, “The government banned dealing in the dollar within the local market, and it succeeded to a certain extent, but a large percentage of Iraq’s imports come from neighboring countries that are subject to American sanctions, such as Syria and a number of Turkish and Iranian companies that are completely banned from dealing in the dollar, and they did not The government has so far established a specific mechanism for trade exchange with these countries, and for the purchase and payment processes.”
He points out that “there are other factors that the government did not pay attention to, including the country’s high budget, which leads to fears and bad and negative expectations, high inflation, and Iraq’s foreign debts. These are all factors that contribute to the decline of the currency locally against foreign currencies in general, and since Iraq is linked to… In dollars, this rise will certainly happen.”
He continues, “In addition to the main and largest reason, which is the American sanctions that led to the rise of the dollar in the recent period, there are sanctions that may be more severe and may affect the Central Bank of Iraq, through which a major shock could be exposed, and also with regard to financial transfers that have become confined to the hands of the American Federal Reserve, which “The risks to the Iraqi government have increased significantly.”

 Iraqi Prime Minister meets NATO Secretary-General to discuss cooperation and security

Shafaq News/ On Wednesday, Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammad Shia Al-Sudani held a meeting with the NATO Secretary-General, Jens Stoltenberg, in New York on the sidelines of the 78th session of the United Nations General Assembly.

During the meeting, Prime Minister Al-Sudani invited Secretary-General Stoltenberg to visit Iraq, emphasizing the desire for enhanced cooperation.

"ZIM NOTES, BONDS, FACTS ABOUT ZIMBABWE" BY JUDY, 21 SEPT

Wed. 20 Sept. Zim Notes, Bonds. Facts about Zimbabwe:

Zimbabwe wanted to join a bank founded by the BRICS group of emerging nations — but the US de-dollarization debate had already started before the country’s application was approved. https://www.herald.co.zw/zim-seeks-to-join-brics-growing-influence/

For years Zimbabwe has been in an economic crisis, with inflation running at 101.3% in July compared with the same month last year: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/aug/22/zimbabwe-goes-to-the-polls-amid-deepening-economic-crisis 

https://www.reuters.com/world/africa/zimbabwe-post-mugabe-economic-revival-remains-elusive-ahead-vote-2023-08-02/

Zimbabwe’s official currency is the Zimbabwe dollar, but John Mangudya, the governor of the country’s central bank, told Bloomberg in July the US dollar was used in 75% of all transactions in Zimbabwe. https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/currencies/de-dollarization-dollar-dominance-pegged-currencies-argentina-countries-greenback-inflation-2023-6
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-07-24/us-dollar-still-rules-in-zimbabwe-despite-local-currency-rally

Zimbabwe’s government banned the use of foreign currencies as legal tender in 2019. Mnangagwa said at the time that the country’s economy was “at the mercy of US dollar pricing, which has been a root cause of inflation.” The country was forced, however, to reverse the ban in June 2022 to rein in inflation. https://www.reuters.com/article/zimbabwe-economy-idUSL8N23V2BJ

In August a liquor-store owner in Zimbabwe, told the Associated Press, “How can one budget with the Zimbabwe dollar that is always changing in value? It is not stable, and we have been burned before.” https://apnews.com/article/dollar-dominance-brics-summit-global-economy-d4322e1f99480962eccc05628a0ddb64

Zimbabwe’s gold-backed digital currency comes a year after the country launched gold coins on July 25, 2022 to stabilize its rapidly devaluing currency.

In May 2023 Zimbabwe released a gold-backed digital currency for peer-to-peer and peer-to-business transactions as well as to act as a store of value as the country’s currency continues to lose ground against major currencies.

“Holders of physical gold coins, at their discretion, will be able to exchange or convert, through the banking system… into gold-backed digital tokens,” the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe said in a statement inviting individual and corporate entities to use the digital currency that can be bought either in Zimbabwean dollars or foreign currency.

Zimbabwe now joins other African states like Nigeria, Ghana and South Africa that have introduced digital currencies, even as several others have plans in the works.

The gold-backed digital currency is backed by a certain amount of gold, which helps keep its value stable, this currency is tied to the market value of the gold – unlike a fiat currency.

The Zimbabwe gold-backed digital currency will be used as legal tender and a store of value alongside the Zimbabwean dollar and bond notes.

Users can buy and sell it using Zimbabwean dollars and other foreign currencies.

Ideally, backing a digital currency with gold involves having a certain measure of gold reserves and depends on the current market value of gold.

The Royal Bank of Zimbabwe is $835,000,082,302,000,000 strong (13 metric tons of in ground gold estimated to yield $14 billion per annum by RBZ going forward) Central Bank Zimbabwe.

Historically, there have been major policies around currencies as legal tender in Zimbabwe, including the 2009 adoption of the US dollar after hyperinflation decimated the value of the local currency (the very reason the 2008 to 2009 Zim Dollars with its high amounts were printed – the country experienced hyperinflation that ended in 2009 where people lost all their money and savings).

In 2009 the Zimbabwe dollar was demonetized (struck off as legal tender) as the use of multi-currencies takes precedence.

Recent developments are part of a wider strategy towards an ongoing re-dollarisation process (for the same reason as Iraq is re-dinarization).

Zimbabwe is now in a process to get all the 2008 to 2009 Zim Promisary Notes (Bond) of the streets.

Now you know why Zimbabwe is re-dollarizing (reviving) their own currency, and why they pegged their Zim dollar to gold recently.

Hold on to your 2008 / 2009 Zim dollars (Bonds), the hammer will soon drop!
