Al-Sudani also stressed Iraq's commitment to preventing any directed action that would lead to a breach of security, or expose the advisors of the international coalition to fight ISIS present in Iraq to any danger, stressing the continuation of communication between the two sides in order to end the coalition's missions in Iraq, and move to bilateral security relations that serve the interests of enhancing security and stability.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken spoke by phone with Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani on Monday evening, the US State Department said.

Militia Man Article: "Government signal: high export capacity boost currency value" It's an education piece...Why is the country of Iraq and the financial advisers talking...? Because the fact things are changing. They want to make the people aware that there are things happening. I believe give reassurances to why they're doing what they're doing. If you're going to have a value change...people need to have a little bit of a warning...
Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] FIREFLY:
We have another guy on TV talking about the WTO accession...He is saying the plan for Iraq to release a fully convertible currency is in October of this year. FRANK: The WTO guy needs to shut his mouth...You know very well what Sudani has promised you. And you know very well it's coming...It's not the WTO's prerogative to tell the world this information. The WTO is so desperate to get Iraq into the WTO so they can make money off of them...This guy is trying to spill the beans for his advantage. All I know is that it is happening.
