Iraq Economic News and Points To Ponder Saturday Morning 9-27-25

Government Advisor: Iraq Is Experiencing A Major Price Boom.

Time: 2025/09/26 11:54:54 Reading: 915 times   {Economic: Al Furat News} Mazhar Mohammed Saleh, the Prime Minister's advisor for financial affairs, confirmed that the economic policies pursued, both monetary and fiscal, have succeeded in achieving significant price growth in the country. He emphasized that this indicates the success of implementing these policies in combating inflation.

Saleh told Al Furat News Agency, "Monetary policy has succeeded in maintaining the positive effects of the official exchange rate of 1,320 dinars to the dollar, and isolating the effects of the parallel market from the local pricing system."

He pointed out that fiscal policy was another key factor in combating inflation, through a broad government support policy. He explained that this support includes the agricultural sector for grain production, support for the food and medicine basket, fuel, and electricity, in addition to customs and tax exemptions.

The Prime Minister's advisor explained that the percentage of this government support is estimated in the budget at approximately 25% of total public spending, or 13% of the country's gross domestic product.

Saleh added that trade policy has played a supporting role in combating inflation and stabilizing the Iraqi economy, through a price defense policy that involves the expansion of stores offering consumer and construction materials at cooperative prices.

Saleh concluded his statement by emphasizing that Iraq is experiencing a significant price boom, which indicates the success of the country's economic policy.  LINK

Despite Tensions, Gold Is On Track For Its Sixth Consecutive Weekly Gain.

Economy | 08:57 - 09/26/2025   Mawazine News - Follow-up:   Gold is heading for a sixth straight weekly gain, supported by escalating geopolitical tensions, inflows into gold-backed exchange-traded funds (ETFs), and increased risk aversion in global markets.

Spot gold traded near a record high of $3,744 per ounce, up more than 1% this week after peaking above $3,791 on Tuesday.

European diplomats warned the Kremlin this week that NATO was prepared to respond with full force to any further violations of its airspace, including the downing of Russian aircraft.

In broader markets, Asian shares fell after US President Donald Trump escalated his trade war, announcing a 100% tariff on branded or patented pharmaceuticals, in addition to measures against a range of other goods, including heavy trucks, kitchen cabinets, and bathroom sinks.

Gold has been on a strong run this year, hitting consecutive highs, supported by sustained demand from central banks and the Federal Reserve's resumption of interest rate cuts.

Prices are close to closing a third quarter of gains next week, with gold exchange-traded fund holdings hitting their highest level since 2022. Major banks, including Goldman Sachs, have forecast the rally will continue.

After the Federal Reserve cut borrowing costs earlier this month, mixed signals have been issued regarding the next move. Fed Chief Banking Supervision Officer Michelle Bowman said Thursday that inflation was close enough to its target to warrant further rate cuts amid a weakening labor market.

Gold was relatively steady at $3,749.04 per ounce at 9:03 a.m. Singapore time, up 43% since the beginning of the year.      https://www.mawazin.net/Details.aspx?jimare=267405

Tomorrow... Implementation Of The Agreement To Export Oil From The Kurdistan Region Of Iraq's Fields Begins.
Economy | 06:49 - 09/26/2025  Mawazin News – Kurdistan  Director General of the State Oil Marketing Company (SOMO) Ali Nizar Al-Shatri confirmed on Friday that the implementation of the agreement to export oil from the Kurdistan Region’s fields will begin tomorrow, Saturday, noting that the proceeds will go to the federal budget.

Al-Shatri said in a press conference, “We confirm what the Iraqi government announced regarding reaching a comprehensive, professional and fair agreement with the Ministry of Natural Resources in the Kurdistan Region and with the companies operating and producing in the region’s fields, for the purpose of delivering the quantities of crude oil produced in those fields to the State Oil Marketing Company (SOMO), as well as pumping it to the Turkish port of Ceyhan; for the purpose of starting the regular and legal export process through that port in accordance with the global procedures, contracts and principles adopted by the State Oil Marketing Company.”

He added, "The agreement stipulated that some quantities, around fifty thousand barrels per day, would be allocated for local consumption and managed by the Ministry of Natural Resources in the Kurdistan Region," noting that "this long-awaited agreement came to implement the three-year federal budget law for the years 2023-2024-2025, and the latest amendment to the budget law for the year 2025, on the basis of which negotiations began that lasted for more than thirty months, in a professional, positive and national atmosphere.

The goal was to regain control and regulate the export of oil produced from the Kurdistan Region, primarily through the north, so that it could return to global markets in a sound and globally approved manner, with solid companies that were eagerly awaiting this agreement."

He explained that "the agreement comes at a time when the European continent is in dire need of this type of oil as an alternative to the shortage in supplies from Russian oil and other sources," noting that "this oil will be available at the Ceyhan oil port.

As is well known, this port is located on the Mediterranean Sea, which places it at the heart of the European market, with the possibility of supplying the North and South American markets from this port with ease, professionalism, and transparency."

He explained, "This agreement would not have been possible without the high professionalism, great support, insistence and patience in constructive negotiations, which took into consideration, first and foremost, Iraq's interests as a single, unified country from north to south, and its oil revenues, which are the primary source of support for the federal budget according to the laws, especially the latest budget law."

 He explained, "The agreement included direct negotiations with the producing companies in the region, and they were reassured and a strict mechanism was reached to guarantee their entitlements according to the budget law.

He stated, "The agreement stipulates that compensation will be in the amount of $16 per barrel delivered to the Oil Marketing Company, and the amount will be deposited according to the global price in Iraq's account at the US Federal Bank in the full name of the Central Bank of Iraq.

" He indicated, "Compensation to the Ministry of Natural Resources in the Kurdistan Region will be in the amount of $16 per barrel, and thus compensation will be in kind through barrels of oil produced from the same fields in the Kurdistan Region, according to the compensation and payment-in-kind mechanism in place globally and applied in the south with contracting companies."

He added, "The produced barrels of oil are delivered to commercial companies that market them globally, and the amounts are deposited into the regional government's account to compensate the producing companies for this amount."

 He pointed out that, "At this stage, a specialized international consulting firm will be contracted by the federal Ministry of Oil to re-evaluate production and transportation costs in the region's producing fields to determine whether these costs are higher or lower than $16 per barrel, which will be considered an advance.

Therefore, compensation will be based on the consultant's decision retroactively from the date the oil was received by the Oil Marketing Company, which is expected to begin on the morning of September 27, 2025, at 6:00 a.m.
He continued, "This agreement will not be temporary, but will establish long-term understandings and will serve as a final end to all the disputes we witnessed in the previous stage.

It will also be a declaration of the seriousness of the federal government, the Kurdistan Regional Government, and the companies operating in Iraq to commit to implementing it and ending all manifestations of disagreement, suspicion of smuggling, or production outside of government control."

He concluded by pointing out that "the proceeds from this oil will go to the country's federal budget and will enable the Iraqi government to fulfill its financial obligations, duly approved and approved, for this year and the coming years."    https://www.mawazin.net/Details.aspx?jimare=267449

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

Iran’s Nuclear Future: $25B Deal With Russia and Gulf Unity Against Israel

Iran is deepening ties with Russia on nuclear energy while reaffirming its commitment to global treaties — a dual-track strategy reshaping Middle East geopolitics and the financial order.

$25 Billion Nuclear Deal With Russia
Iran and Russia have signed a landmark $25 billion agreement to construct four nuclear power plants, according to Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization. The deal, led by Russia’s state nuclear giant Rosatom, is one of Tehran’s largest nuclear projects to date. 

• The reactors will be Generation III plants in Hormozgan province, expected to deliver 5,000 megawatts of electricity — a fivefold increase from Iran’s current Russian-built Bushehr facility.

• Alongside the large-scale plants, Iran also signed a memorandum with Rosatom on small modular reactors (SMRs), aligning with global trends in flexible nuclear technology.

• The agreement comes as UN sanctions are set to snap back unless the Security Council delays enforcement, with Russia and China pushing to postpone but facing resistance from Western powers.

Iranian officials frame the deal as both an energy lifeline and a geopolitical statement — deepening defiance of Western sanctions while bolstering cooperation with Moscow.

Iran’s Position on Nuclear Weapons and the NPT

At the United Nations General Assembly, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian reaffirmed Tehran’s commitment to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT), rejecting calls from domestic hardliners to exit. 

“We are not going to leave the NPT, whether they help us or don’t help us,” Pezeshkian said, signaling that Iran’s nuclear strategy will remain officially peaceful under Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei’s directive.

Still, tensions remain high:

• The “12-Day War” in June saw Israel and the U.S. strike Iranian nuclear sites, deepening mistrust.

• Iranian lawmakers highlight new military cooperation with Russia, including MiG-29 fighter jets, as a response to Western isolation.

• The UN Security Council failed to prevent snapback sanctions, reinforcing Iran’s skepticism toward Western diplomacy.

Regional Realignment: Gulf Unity Against Israel
Perhaps the most striking development is Iran’s growing alignment with Gulf neighbors following recent Israeli attacks. Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and other Gulf states have condemned Israeli operations, with Qatar calling an attempted Hamas assassination “a strike that changed the region forever.”

Pezeshkian emphasized:

• New cohesion between Iran and Arab states once skeptical of Tehran.

• A shift in perception: “Before a year ago, everyone was under the mistaken assumption that Iran was the cause of chaos. Now Israel has shown its true face.”

• Regional defense pacts — including Saudi Arabia’s new agreement with Pakistan — illustrate a reconfigured security architecture.

Why This Matters: Energy, Security, and Finance Are Intertwined
Iran’s nuclear expansion and regional diplomacy show how energy and defense cooperation directly fuel global financial restructuring:

• By partnering with Russia on nuclear power, Iran bypasses Western sanctions and ties its grid to alternative supply chains.

• Gulf states aligning with Iran against Israel opens pathways to non-dollar trade frameworks within BRICS and beyond.

• The broader implication: sanctions, oil, and nuclear technology are no longer just political levers — they are instruments in the redesign of global monetary power.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

U.S. Weighs Military Strikes on Venezuela’s Drug Trade — A Flashpoint in Global Power Struggles

Washington considers targeting drug traffickers in Venezuela as tensions rise over security, resources, and shifting geopolitical alignments.

Escalating U.S.–Venezuela Tensions
Reports indicate the U.S. military is developing strike options against drug traffickers and production labs in Venezuela, though President Donald Trump has not yet approved direct action inside Venezuelan territory. According to NBC News, the plans center on drone strikes against cartel leaders and labs, building on recent U.S. naval operations that destroyed suspected drug-smuggling boats near Venezuelan waters.

The Trump administration has framed these actions as a national security response, while critics warn that crossing into Venezuelan territory would mark a dangerous escalation.

Accusations and Counterclaims

• The U.S. has accused Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro of enabling drug networks, designating the Venezuelan-based gang Tren de Aragua a Foreign Terrorist Organization under the Foreign Narcotics Kingpin Act.

• Venezuelan officials, however, counter that Washington’s moves represent an “immoral military threat” aimed at controlling the country’s oil and gas wealth. In a United Nations address, Foreign Minister Yván Gil Pinto warned of U.S. regime-change intentions.

• Despite heated rhetoric, backchannel talks are reportedly underway in the Middle East, suggesting Washington and Caracas are testing diplomatic channels even as military planning continues.

The Risks of Escalation

• Legality in question: U.S. strikes on boats in international waters have already drawn criticism from lawmakers and rights groups, who challenge the use of lethal force without transparent evidence (NPR).

• Regional fallout: Direct strikes inside Venezuela would raise tensions across Latin America, potentially driving Maduro closer to Russia, China, and other BRICS-aligned powers.

• Limited results: Analysts caution that disrupting drug routes may have only short-term effects, as cocaine flows would simply shift to alternative pathways.

Why This Matters
This dispute is not only about drugs — it is about control of trade flows, resource access, and financial influence in the Western Hemisphere. Venezuela’s oil wealth, its growing ties with Russia and China, and its centrality in Latin American politics make it more than a local issue.

U.S. strikes on Venezuelan soil would signal a new phase in global power competition, where even anti-narcotics operations become entangled with broader struggles over energy markets and currency alignments.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

SEC and Vaneck Explore Regulated Tokenization — A Roadmap for the Future of Finance

The SEC’s latest discussions signal that crypto tokenization is moving from experimental innovation to regulated market infrastructure.

SEC–Vaneck Meeting Brings Tokenization to the Forefront
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) revealed details of a Crypto Task Force meeting with Vaneck on September 25, 2025, highlighting growing regulatory focus on tokenized assets.

Vaneck, which oversees $132.9 billion in assets as of June 30, emphasized how tokenized ETFs, liquid staking, and custody rules must evolve to fit within the securities framework.

The meeting agenda underscored several priorities:

• Applicability of Generic Listing Standards to staking tokens, ensuring they meet liquidity and risk requirements.

• Tokenization of private and registered funds, especially ETFs, with clearer rules for issuers.

• Integration of decentralized finance and tokenized securities under securities law.

• Custody and safeguarding of digital assets, including new solutions like multi-party computation (MPC) software to protect investors.

Why This Matters for Global Finance
This isn’t just about regulatory housekeeping — it is about redesigning financial plumbing. By working with a major asset manager like Vaneck, the SEC is acknowledging that tokenization is inevitable and must be brought into the regulated system.

• For Wall Street, tokenized ETFs and staking protocols could open new liquidity channels and broaden access to alternative assets.

• For global markets, this signals that the U.S. is laying legal and structural groundwork to ensure the dollar remains central in a tokenized financial system.

• For investors, regulated tokenization could transform how assets are issued, traded, and safeguarded — from real estate and commodities to sovereign bonds and currencies.

Broader Implications
Regulatory clarity in tokenization also represents a strategic move in the currency and trade wars shaping the new financial order. As BRICS nations experiment with de-dollarized settlement systems, Washington is moving quickly to digitize and secure dollar-based markets through tokenization.

 This is a defensive as well as offensive strategy — ensuring the U.S. can compete in a world where financial infrastructure itself is being rebuilt.

Why This Matters
The SEC’s engagement with Vaneck shows that crypto regulation is no longer just about containing risk — it is about shaping the next era of financial architecture. By integrating tokenization under U.S. oversight, Washington is pushing to keep the dollar at the center of global finance, even as rivals seek alternatives.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

Senate Finance Committee Puts Crypto Taxation on the Agenda

Lawmakers are moving to address crypto taxation as part of the broader effort to align U.S. financial infrastructure with digital asset innovation.

Senate Hearing on Digital Asset Taxation
The U.S. Senate Finance Committee is set to hold a hearing next Wednesday to discuss crypto tax policy, marking a key step in addressing one of the most confusing areas of digital asset regulation. The session will be chaired by Senator Mike Crapo and will feature testimony from:

• Lawrence Zlatkin, Coinbase Vice President of Tax

• Jason Somensatto, Policy Director at Coin Center

• Annette Nellen, Chair of the Digital Assets Tax Task Force (AICPA)

• Andrea S. Kramer, Founding Member of ASKramer Law

Aligning With the White House’s Digital Asset Report
The hearing reflects recommendations from the White House Digital Asset Working Group’s July report, which called for:

• Recognition of crypto as a new asset class, distinct from traditional securities and commodities.

• Tailored tax rules for activities like airdrops, staking, and mining.

• Guidance on stablecoin transactions, particularly for payment use cases.

Currently, the IRS treats crypto and NFTs as property, meaning every transaction can trigger capital gains taxes — an approach widely seen as outdated in a world where digital payments and tokenized assets are accelerating.

Pushback Against “Double Taxation”
Senator Cynthia Lummis has been vocal about what she calls “unfair tax treatment” of miners and stakers, who are taxed twice:

• Once when they receive rewards (income tax).

• Again when they later sell those rewards (capital gains).

Lummis argues that this treatment discourages innovation and competitiveness, undermining the U.S. position in crypto leadership. Her attempt to include a fix in Trump’s July budget reconciliation bill failed, but the issue remains front and center.

Why This Matters for Global Finance
This hearing is not just about tax code updates — it is about integrating digital assets into the U.S. financial architecture. By clarifying how stablecoins, staking, and tokenized assets are taxed, Washington is preparing for:

• Mainstream use of crypto in payments and investment.

• Institutional adoption of tokenized ETFs and funds.

• A stronger dollar-backed role in the digital economy, as rivals like BRICS push forward with de-dollarized systems.

In short, the U.S. is trying to modernize its rules to both capture innovation and prevent capital flight to friendlier jurisdictions.

Why This Matters
By bringing tax clarity to crypto, the Senate Finance Committee is addressing a cornerstone issue for mainstream adoption. It shows Washington is not only catching up but actively working to reshape the financial system around tokenization and digital assets.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

Tishwash:  Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) has resumed crude oil exports

After more than two and a half years of suspension, the export of Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) crude oil from the Peshawar oil field to the Turkish World Port resumed at 6:50 am today.

After several meetings between the two ministries of natural resources and the Federal Ministry of Oil, a tripartite agreement was finally reached between the two ministries and foreign oil investment companies, to export oil through the Iraqi Oil Marketing Company (SOMO).

Masrour Barzani: Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) fields have been re-connected to the world oil market

"The agreement between the Kurdistan Region and oil producing companies with the Iraqi Federal Oil Ministry and SOMO has been the result of the hard work and efforts of all teams and delegations. This step has reconnected the Kurdistan Region fields to the world oil market.

Sudani: We have reached a historic agreement

Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Sudani said Thursday that the Federal Oil Ministry will receive crude oil produced in the Kurdistan Region and export it through the Iraq-Turkey pipeline.

"Oil exports will ensure a fair distribution of wealth and diversify export sources," Sudani said.

 "The agreement will encourage investment," he wrote.

SOMO Director: Europe needs Kurdistan oil to replace Russian oil

Ali Nizar, Director General of SOMO, told a news conference on Friday evening that the negotiations took 30 months to reach an agreement. The Kurdistan Region is currently delivering about 240,000 barrels of oil per day to SOMO, but 50,000 barrels per day It will be reused for the domestic needs of the Kurdistan Region.

"The Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) oil is exported to the Turkish port on the White Sea, which is the center of the European market, because Europe needs Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) oil to replace Russian oil," he said.

Under the tripartite agreement, the federal government will compensate the companies, pay $16 per barrel to investment companies and receive their entitlements through the Federal Reserve.

Regarding the agreement to resume oil exports from the Kurdistan Region, Nizar said that this agreement will not be temporary but will be the basis for understanding and a long-term agreement.

Since March 25, 2023, the export of Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) crude oil through the port of Ceyhan has been suspended due to a complaint filed by Iraq against Turkey.   link

Iraq In The Green: Blockchain Is Security & Stability (Iran Out Of The Loop)

Ok, my people when the recent oil export deal between Iraq’s federal government and the Kurdistan Regional Government happened it marked a turning point for the country’s economy, and it’s worth unpacking what this means in straightforward terms.

Signed just days ago, the agreement restarts crude flows from Kurdish fields through the Kirkuk-Ceyhan pipeline to Turkey, pumping about 230,000 barrels per day starting tomorrow, September 27.

This isn’t just about oil it’s a hard-won truce after two years of shutdowns caused by legal battles and payment disputes, involving eight major international firms like ExxonMobil and Chevron.

The U.S. has already called it a win for Iraq’s sovereignty, as it funnels revenues directly into Baghdad’s coffers under the 2023-2025 budget law, potentially adding $18 billion annually to federal reserves.

Now, tie this to the banking angle you mentioned. Global banks are indeed circling Iraq more aggressively this year, with deals like the $1 billion investment pacts signed in mid-September with the World Bank’s International Finance Corporation.

These aren’t vague promises they’re targeted at modernizing Iraq’s creaky financial system, including electronic payments that kicked in for all government transactions back in June.

The Central Bank of Iraq is pushing digital infrastructure, including research into a central bank digital currency (CBDC) to replace cash and cut fraud. Which of course we are against in America.

Blockchain fits here as a tool for secure, transparent tracking of oil revenues and cross-border trades, making it tougher for neighbors like Iran to siphon funds through informal channels.

Iran’s been under SWIFT sanctions since 2012, and while there’s no confirmed “midnight disconnection” tonight that sounds like online chatter U.S. Treasury actions this summer have hammered Tehran’s shadow banking networks even harder, freezing assets tied to its Central Bank.

Iraq’s pivot to blockchain-like systems would lock out those backdoor routes, ensuring new oil money stays in Iraqi hands and bolsters economic independence.

As for the Iraqi Dinar’s exchange rate hitting Forex in a big way, let’s be direct: this deal sets the stage for stability, but don’t expect a dramatic revaluation overnight. The Dinar’s been pegged steady at around 1,310 to the dollar for months, and credible forecasts from places like Trading Economics point to it holding or even dipping slightly to 1,318 by year’s end.

The Kurdistan pact injects fresh liquidity oil makes up 90% of Iraq’s budget and could ease pressure on reserves, drawing more foreign direct investment from those global banks you noted. Some say this might nudge the CBI toward a gradual float or Forex integration by late 2025 or early 2026, especially with digital reforms aligning Iraq closer to international standards

But there is hype around a sudden “RV” (revaluation) that some view as mostly speculative noise from YouTube and forums; but of course real change comes from sustained revenue like this, not midnight announcements.

But are we in for a surprise? Because we should still look for the rate to come out at least 1:1. And wait for higher returns.

The 1866 Banking Collapse Nobody Knows About (But Should) | When "Too Big To Fail" Actually Failed

The 1866 Banking Collapse Nobody Knows About (But Should) | When "Too Big To Fail" Actually Failed

The Timeless Investor:  9-26-2025

The BIGGEST bank in the world collapsed in 12 hours.

Over 200 companies failed. Global markets crashed. Yet almost nobody today has heard of Black Friday 1866 - the banking disaster that created modern finance as we know it.

 Overend, Gurney & Company wasn't just big. They were THE lender of last resort before central banks existed.

They were considered safer than the Bank of England itself. They'd been in business for 60 years. They had just IPO'd at 9X oversubscription. Then they collapsed in a single day.

This isn't just history - it's a WARNING. The same pattern that destroyed Overend Gurney is playing out RIGHT NOW in:

Regional banks reaching for yield Private credit funds acting like banks

Short-term debt funding long-term projects

Real estate syndicators promising liquidity on illiquid assets

Learn why Silicon Valley Bank's 12-hour collapse in 2023 was identical to Overend Gurney's fall in 1866 - and what that means for YOUR investments.

Bruce’s Big Call Dinar Intel Thursday Night 9 - 25 - 25

Bruce’s Big Call Dinar Intel Thursday Night  9 - 25 - 25  

Transcribed By WiserNow Emailed To Recaps  (INTEL ONLY)

Welcome everybody to the big call tonight. It's Thursday, September 25th  and you're listening the big call. Thanks for tuning in, wherever you're located, all around this globe. Glad that you're here. Looking forward to our call tonight,

All right, let's get into the Intel segment for tonight and I'm going to say this is amazing. Okay, we have some information that we got a little while ago that was suggesting that President Trump had made a little short video clip announcement saying that American citizens would all be very happy at the end of this month

Now, I heard him say something like that about US citizens, or American citizens would be very happy soon. And I think he was referring to by the end of this month, which is what we've been hearing, right?

We've been hearing by the end of this month, we heard we could get some action over this weekend, we've had a couple of real high up sources in our number one bank and in redemption centers, from our contact from Treasury, that's saying, you know, be prepared for something that something to start for us. And I'm taking that to mean notifications. By the end of this week, I'm going to say weekend, not, you know, Saturday, Sunday is the weekend, and maybe we do get something over the weekend.

Maybe we start with notifications by or on the weekend, but we have heard that we should get everything, and we're looking for by or before the end of this month? Well, the month end is Tuesday. That's the 30th of September. The first of October is Wednesday. So we are closing in on it even as we speak with this being Thursday, the 25th 

So let's look at it this way. We're almost to the end, and let's talk about what else we have heard that is really interesting. Two other two other things that I think are very important in terms of what we're waiting for.

We heard that our quantum accounts, and these are the accounts you remember that we access with our quantum card that will be issued to us at the redemption center. Okay, remember what we should have in those quantum accounts that would be loaded up this Sunday night over the weekend. Let's call it Sunday evening to Sunday night.

We're supposed to have our Doge payments in there, our R & R restitution and reconciliation allowance in there, and we're supposed to have our Tariff dividends in that account.

Now they're calling zim holders sovereigns. They know pretty much who the Zim holders are, or who the sovereigns are, and I'm sure that they have set and set aside enough money for the Zim to be redeemed.

Now that money, essentially is set aside, but it's not in our quantum account, yet, because we have to bring this in, into the redemption center to redeem it, as well as the rest of our currencies, dinar, dong, rupiah, Afghani, and all the other currencies that are going up in value  that many of us have, like the Venezuelan Bolivar or is another good one

So when we do our exchange and our redemption of zim at the redemption centers, that total will go into our quantum account. Then we move what we need for 60 to 90 days. I've heard 60, I've heard 90. I'm going to say 60 to 90 days. Move what we think we need into our primary wells, Fargo account.

And then if we set up such accounts, we can move some of that money in a few days later, but making that first deposit, if you will, into our into our primary bank account with Wells, we do that based on what we anticipate we need for the first 60 to 90 days.

Now. Why that period of time we're under an NDA for 60 to 90 days, they want to see how we utilize it, how we spend it, make sure it's going to the proper causes and not to some nefarious group. Okay, that's why they're watching us, to see how that goes. And then after 60 days, maybe 90, but 60 to 90 days after that, we should be able to move as much as we want into our primary wells account.

And you can also attach other banks to your quantum card. Doesn't have to be only Wells. I'm going to attach one or two other banks to that quantum account, so I can move funds into those other banks.

Okay, all right, that's, that's one little thing that we're looking for to occur. I don’t think we will see until we go in for our exchange, but it will take place Sunday night.

All right, let's see the other thing. All right, I'm going to talk about this a second  that’s a really big deal though -- to get those  accounts hydrated with money from Doge, from R & R also from tariff dividends. That is huge.

And the tariff dividends we're talking about, I believe, is referring to an account in the treasury that was $150 trillion balance that we had to work with for that. Now that may include be more than just tariff dividends. I would think it would be, but it was 150 trillion really hard for him to say it at least twice.

I mentioned on the call the last, I think it was last Tuesday and the previous Thursday, maybe. So that's a huge balance  to work with to start with.

All right, here's the other thing that I was looking for, we understand from a source that we have, which is working with the Treasury. That is saying, Remember, I told you guys for at least a month now that I'm hearing that NESARA and GESARA will begin implementation on October first, which is Wednesday.

Okay, a week from yesterday, this coming Wednesday is October 1. Now here's, here's the thing I heard today that with NESARA and GESARA which is the Global Economic Security and Recovery Act that we would get it rolled out, meaning NESARA for the US. NESARA rolled out from October 1 through the end of the year, which is December 31 so three months, we should have everything in NESARA at least announced and rolled out to where we understand what it includes.

And I have heard from a source which is working with the Treasury that our, he believes that our

okay. It's called, not the VAP, that's your term for value added tax, but our consumption tax would start on October 1.

Now, why did that happen on October 1? I have another source that's talking about it, starting in his opinion, January 1. I like the concept of October 1 for one reason, because if we bring out NESARA, our new USN currency, right, digital and the physical money folding money around October 1, are we essentially letting the USA Inc go in favor of the restored Republic?

To start on October 1, which remember, is the start of the US, fiscal, fiscal, not physical -  fiscal FIS CAL Fiscal year starts October 1. But would you want to start the new year with a new system, with a new money, with NESARA?  I would think so.

Which NESARA includes the consumption tax, which is something is something that takes away all the other taxes, income taxes, property taxes, you know, real estate, all those things, it should it should eliminate all of those in favor of a tax around 14 or 50% on new items, and the tax  is inborted – meaning included in the price of goods - around 14 or 15% on new items, and the cap is inboarded, meaning included in the price of goods.

 Inboarded in goods that you buy does not include anything that's used - used homes, used furniture, used whatever that you buy would not have that tax included. Should not be on food, like groceries. It may still be on restaurant checks.

However, I'm not sure that, because that sometimes is considered a service. Remember the old days when  a service was not to be taxed? Remember only a product but not a service? Well, they changed that on us years ago. So I don't know how they're going to treat restaurant food.  Okay, restaurant food and drink. I'm not sure. Whatever it is, we'll be able to afford. It doesn't really matter.

But if NESARA / GESARA does kick off on Wednesday, October 1, we could just start with the consumption tax  starting on that day. And I don't know this is just a theory that I have because of the idea of starting off with a restored Republic, you know, without the old system.

 And what about this continuing resolution concept to continue the government? Why don't we just let the government shut down at the end of this month, this fiscal year, and start back up on October 1 with the restored Republic, which you guys got to realize. I told you guys this on Tuesdays, our new US Treasury has gazillions and gazillions of dollars, new dollars USN  already.

I mean, guys, you have no idea how much currency has been seized. Homes have been seized. Other items have been seized. Bonds have been seized. People that have tried to take advantage and game system but  doing it illegally, have been picked up and arrested, and their stuff has been seized.  It is now property of your new US Treasury. I mean, it's loaded, loaded for bear, and I'm excited about where we're going now.

What does that mean for our notifications? Could we get notified over the weekend and start Monday or Tuesday? I don’t know - I mean, we're supposed to be happy, or I'm not trying to move this out. Guys, you know me, I don't do that. But is it possible we get notified around Monday or Tuesday and begin exchanges on the first of October in the new system, using the USN and the restored Republic and NESARA?

I don't know. It's only a thought. It's just a theory. I don't know that. Nobody's telling me that yet, so we'll see how that goes.

We're looking really good, a week away, or less than a week, even if it does start October 1, we think it's going to start for us in some form, which should be, which should be, notifications by the end of this month, maybe by the weekend. You don't know, we just it's not 100% clearer.

We're hearing things that say weekend, end of the month, either way, it's only couple days apart. So I'm excited. That's what I want to bring to you guys tonight. And let's say, first of all, if anybody you're reading puts down the concept of redemption centers, don't read it. It's just a lie. It's not true.

Redemption centers are live and well, we know a dozen people that are the leaders of redemption centers. Some of them are over six or seven. Some of them are over one. They just, it just depends, but we just know. We just know the people that are the heads of the leaders, and a lot of the people that that are going there, so all of that is absolutely real. They're ready for us. They're all trained up and ready for us to go there. All right, so that's what I want to do tonight.

I want to say thank you to everybody that supports the big call in terms of GCK and Doug and Pastor Scott and Jeannie and the satellite team. Thank you. Obviously sue for doing these teachings, bringing these cool segments and just  being the light of the big call and Bob, wow. What a treat in this segment about energy and mitochondria and about just everything.

So thank you big call universe for listening and being part of this call for 14 years. Let's see what happens over the weekend, see if we're see what we have by Tuesday, which is the last day this month, the 30th five days from now.

Okay. Meanwhile, I look forward to what could be a really strong weekend, or it could be a great end of the month. She does Okay? Could be both.

Well, thanks everybody for listening again. Appreciate it. Let's see what happens, and we'll more than likely talk to you Tuesday. All right. Have a great weekend, everybody.

Seeds of Wisdom RV and Economics Updates Friday Afternoon 9-26-25

Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

BRICS mBridge Project: What It Is & How It Could Shift Dollar Dominance

Project mBridge signals a quietly growing infrastructure that may undercut the dollar’s power in cross-border finance, shaping the financial realignment now underway.

What Is Project mBridge and Its Progress

• Launched in 2021, Project mBridge is a multi-central bank digital currency (CBDC) platform led by the BIS Innovation Hub, China’s Digital Currency Institute, the Central Bank of UAE, Bank of Thailand, and Hong Kong Monetary Authority; Saudi Arabia joined as full participant in June 2024. BIS, CoinDesk

• As of mid-2024, the project reached its Minimum Viable Product (MVP) stage. Founding central banks have each deployed validating nodes; commercial banks are processing real-value cross-border transactions. Finance Middle East, BIS, BIS

• The system uses its own blockchain (mBridge Ledger), supports wholesale CBDCs for cross-border payments, foreign exchange, and settlement with reduced reliance on intermediaries. BIS, Forbes

Key Technical & Functional Features

• Real-value transactions in pilot: In 2022, commercial banks across four jurisdictions (China, Hong Kong, Thailand, UAE) conducted transactions totalling over $22 million in value, over various foreign exchange and payment operations. BIS,BIS

• Governance & Legal Framework: A bespoke rulebook and legal structure has been developed to accommodate decentralized node operations, cross-jurisdiction regulation, and compliance norms. BIS

• Observation & expansion: Over 30 institutions (central banks, commercial banks) are observers to mBridge. Several have expressed interest in joining or developing use cases. OMFIF, BIS, Central Banking

Risks, Uncertainties & Political Overtone

• BIS’s Departure: The BIS announced in late 2024 that it would remove itself from “active participation,” not due to failure, but because it believes partner central banks are ready to carry on independently and the project has matured to that point. Reuters

• Geopolitical sensitivity: Observers warn that even though BIS claims project is not designed to sidestep sanctions, its capabilities (bypassing SWIFT, enabling non-dollar settlement) make it of interest to countries seeking alternatives to Western financial hegemony. Finance Magnates, Financial Times, OMFIF

How mBridge Fits into Global Finance Restructuring

• Dollar alternatives and de-dollarization: By enabling payments and settlements directly via wholesale CBDCs, mBridge helps reduce dependence on the U.S. dollar and the SWIFT network. This aligns with BRICS and other emerging economies trying to build parallel systems. Financial Times, BIS

• Efficiency, cost, inclusion: Existing cross-border systems are slow, expensive, fragmented. mBridge aims to cut costs, speed up settlement, and make payments more accessible especially for countries underserved by correspondent banking. Finance Middle East, PYMNTS.com

• Structural leverage: The legal, governance, and infrastructural backbone being built could become standards: which currencies, which nodes, who validates, which rules. Whoever shapes those standards gains leverage in global finance.

Why This Matters

mBridge isn’t just another fintech pilot—it represents a real shift in how cross-border value might move in the coming decade. If fully operational:

• Participating countries could settle trade and finance outside of dollar dominance.

• Institutions (central and commercial) would gain new infrastructure that bypasses traditional western messaging and clearing networks.

• The narrative of alternatives to U.S. monetary leverage becomes more concrete, not theoretical.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

RV Excerpts from the Restored Republic via a GCR: Update as of Fri. 26 September 2025

Compiled Fri. 26 September 2025 12:01 am EST by Judy Byington

Summary:

Compiled by Judy Byington, MSW, LCSW, Therapist ret, Journalist, and Author, this update paints a picture of profound transformation that began with “THE FINAL PHASE (allegedly) BEGINS” on Thursday, September 25, 2025. This isn’t just a system upgrade; it’s a complete paradigm shift.

NESARA and GESARA are(allegedly)  INITIATED! This means the debt era is(allegedly)  officially over, the fraudulent banking system is being dismantled, and a new, gold-backed currency is (allegedly) being introduced. Imagine a world where your debts are erased, where financial institutions are no longer the gatekeepers of your prosperity, and where your money holds tangible value. This is the promise of NESARA/GESARA, and its activation marks the beginning of true financial liberation.

The QFS is FULLY OPERATIONAL! This is the game-changer. With the QFS, manipulation (allegedly) becomes a relic of the past. We are talking about total financial transparency, providing clarity and security that has been sorely lacking. And with this transparency comes the end of the Federal Reserve (allegedly) as we know it, signaling the dismantling of centralized control and paving the way for a decentralized, equitable financial future.

Operation White Swan is in motion. As reported by Charlie Ward and friends, the QFS integration is nearing saturation. As of September 20th, an astonishing 91% of SWIFT corridors are(allegedly)  under surveillance, with active QFS nodes established in key nations like the U.S., Brazil, Hungary, India, Kazakhstan, and Argentina. This widespread integration signifies the rapid and irreversible nature of this financial revolution.

The final hurdles are being cleared. Mike Bara reported a 99% probability of the reset completing by the end of Thursday, September 25, 2025, and a 100% chance by Monday. The long-standing hold-up, Venezuela, has reportedly been “cleared,” meaning the Bolivar is back in play with the potential for higher rates.

For those in Tier 4b (“friends”), private exchanges have (allegedly) been active. Invitations are (allegedly) being extended via an 800 number or secure link, and crucially, rates are being locked. This is a crucial step, ensuring that individuals who have been patiently waiting are now (allegedly) securing favorable exchange rates before the public phase.

Bruce from The Big Call has also shared encouraging news. President Trump himself has released a video suggesting that Americans will be “very happy at the end of this month” (by Wednesday, September 30th). Multiple sources, including bank and Treasury contacts, indicate preparedness for something significant to begin by the end of this weekend. Get ready for your Quantum accounts to be (allegedly) loaded with DOGE payments, R&R payments, and tariff dividends as early as Sunday evening. And for the Zimbabwe bondholders, you are now recognized as “Sovereigns.”

As of September 25, 2025, the QFS is not just operational; it’s (allegedly) actively unlocking accounts and distributing wealth. The Gazetteller reports that the QFS rollout is outpacing the globalists’ ability to react.

While early adopters, military retirees, and humanitarian operators are already experiencing live transactions, the system is (allegedly) undergoing final synchronization with worldwide biometric verification. GESARA’s enforcement is palpable, leading to debt forgiveness, asset redistribution, and the dismantling of traditional banking structures.

But what is this new currency and system? SHI (Sovereign Human Initiative) is a gold-backed, (allegedly) DNA-linked digital currency operating on the QFS. Each SHI account is intrinsically tied to your biometric Quantum Access Card, verified through secure quantum nodes. This makes SHI completely (allegedly) manipulation-proof, ensuring only authorized individuals can access and transact. It replaces fiat currencies within the QFS ecosystem, facilitating real-time, transparent financial operations and ensuring wealth previously hoarded by elites is now securely distributed under GESARA protocols.

White Hat insiders confirm: This activation is(allegedly) quantum-secure, gold-backed, and identity-linked. Any attempt to bypass or share activation codes risks permanent account lock. However, those who follow the proper procedures may see their frozen fiat balances immediately converted into SHI, ready for GESARA-enforced wealth redistribution.

President Trump is(allegedly)  reportedly signing daily executive orders to expedite the release of QFS, GESARA, and SHI. While the public rollout awaits final biometric integration and military-enforced compliance, early activations are undergoing secure, quiet testing.

QFS engineers are (allegedly) working around the clock on quantum reconciliation and auditing, while military forces ensure global adherence to GESARA mandates. SHI wallets are being activated securely, verified through quantum nodes and biometric checks.

The financial reset is (allegedly) unstoppable. The Federal Reserve is being (allegedly) dismantled, globalist assets are being(allegedly)  seized, and the QFS is(allegedly)  live for those ready to claim their rightful SHI accounts. The concept of being not just a participant but fully equipped, mentally and biologically, to engage with this revolutionary system is paramount.

Trump, the military alliance, and QFS engineers are on the cusp of completing their mission: freedom, financial sovereignty, and wealth restoration are imminent.

As reported by ShelbyMac2.0, the QFS is actively flipping the financial system. 91% of SWIFT corridors are now under QFS surveillance. National treasuries in the U.S., Brazil, India, Hungary, Kazakhstan, and Argentina are(allegedly)  live on quantum rails.

An incredible $112 trillion in internal assets have been seized since June alone. Central banks are being drained and neutralized algorithmically, and the IRS server nodes have been reduced to a mere 7%, all under military control.

The future is here. The old system is crumbling. Prepare for a world where financial power is returned to the people. The Quantum Financial System has (allegedly) arrived, and with it, the promise of a brighter, more equitable financial future for all.

Member: Is there any speculation how long after oil flows they pull the RV switch???

MZ: I do not know how quickly after oil starts flowing- that we get a rate….Its my understanding they still have to finish the rest of the HCL. But I do believe we just crossed our biggest hurdle.

Member: And redemption centers are located in banks……With trained employees and equipment to exchange foreign currency.

Tishwash:  Breakthrough Oil Export Deal in Iraqi Kurdistan: A New Dawn for Crude Flow

International oil companies in Iraqi Kurdistan have reached an agreement with Iraqi federal and Kurdish governments to resume oil exports. The framework, once signed, will allow for the export of 230,000 barrels per day through the Iraq-Turkey pipeline, suspended since March 2023. DNO and Genel Energy are yet to sign.

In a significant development, international oil companies operating in Iraqi Kurdistan have reached a preliminary deal with both the Iraqi federal and Kurdish regional governments to restart oil exports. This move comes after extensive negotiations, according to an IOC statement seen by Reuters.

The agreed-upon framework will enable exports to resume "in the coming days" following its official signing and implementation. However, oil companies DNO and its partner Genel Energy have yet to formalize their participation, as reported by a reliable source with direct information on the matter.

The agreement, once fully executed, will facilitate the flow of approximately 230,000 barrels of crude daily through the Iraq-Turkey pipeline, a crucial artery that has been non-operational since March 2023. Efforts to reach DNO and Genel Energy for comments were not immediately successful. link

************

Tishwash:  Miles Caggins: The Kurdistan Regional Government will export 230,000 barrels of oil per day.

Miles Caggins, spokesman for the Kurdistan Region's Petroleum Industry Association (APICOR), said on Thursday that today is a very important day. An agreement has been signed to resume oil exports, and the process is scheduled to begin in the next few days.

In an interview with Kurdistan 24, he added that exports are expected to begin within two or three days.

He pointed out that, according to the agreement, the Kurdistan Regional Government will export 230,000 barrels of oil per day through SOMO, while 50,000 to 60,000 barrels will be allocated for domestic consumption.

In the same context, the Kurdistan Region's Oil Industry Association (APICOR) said on Thursday that resuming oil exports from the region will contribute to strengthening global energy markets.

On the occasion of the tripartite agreement to resume exports, the association commended, in a statement, Kurdistan Regional Government Prime Minister Masrour Barzani and Federal Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani.

APICORP emphasized that the resumption of Kurdistan Region oil exports will benefit all Iraqis and will play a role in supporting the position of global energy markets. It is expected that exports will begin within the next few days.

The Federal Ministry of Oil announced today, Thursday, an agreement stipulating the commencement of pumping and delivering all crude oil produced from the Kurdistan Region's fields, except for the quantities allocated for domestic consumption, to the State Oil Marketing Organization (SOMO), which will export it via the Iraq-Turkey pipeline via the Turkish port of Ceyhan.

The ministry indicated that the agreement was concluded in accordance with the approved legal procedures, the constitution, the provisions of the Federal General Budget Law, and Federal Court decisions.

The Ministry reiterated its unwavering commitment to managing oil resources in accordance with the principles of national sovereignty and the country's supreme interest, ensuring a fair distribution of wealth among all Iraqis, in accordance with the constitution.  link

Fair Distribution Of Wealth

Politics / Economy / Special Files Today| 274  After Years Of Conflict, Baghdad And Erbil Turn The Page On Oil Disputes With A Comprehensive Agreement. What Next? - Urgent

Baghdad Today – Baghdad  After more than 18 years of disputes over the oil file between Baghdad and Erbil, Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani and Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) President Masrour Barzani announced a historic agreement under which the federal Ministry of Oil will hand over full control of the region's exports to the federal Ministry of Oil, which will be exported through the State Oil Marketing Organization (SOMO).

This announcement, described by al-Sudani as a long-awaited achievement and by Barzani as a historic step that will restore the region to global markets, sparked widespread reactions, with experts viewing it as a fundamental shift in the management of national wealth and a reshaping of the relationship between the central government and the region.

Oil and economic expert Ahmed Askar told Baghdad Today, "The announcement of a historic agreement between the federal government in Baghdad and the Kurdistan Regional Government regarding the transfer of the region's oil exports to the federal Ministry of Oil represents a fundamental shift in the management of national wealth."

According to economic analysis, the agreement goes beyond regulating the export mechanism, but also lays the foundation for a long-term partnership between Baghdad and Erbil based on the constitution and applicable laws.

Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani described the agreement in a tweet on Twitter as an achievement Iraq has been waiting for for 18 years, emphasizing that it includes "the fair distribution of wealth, diversification of export outlets, and investment encouragement."

He emphasized that it opens the door to a new phase of unified oil decision-making and increased federal revenues.

For his part, Kurdistan Regional Government Prime Minister Masrour Barzani affirmed that the agreement is a "historic step" that removes one of the most significant obstacles to securing financial dues for the people of Kurdistan. He noted that it restores the region to global markets and emphasizes the need to adhere to constitutional rights.

These statements reflected a rare consensus in rhetoric between Baghdad and Erbil on an issue that has remained a symbol of chronic disagreements for years.

Askar explained that "this agreement opens the door to addressing one of the most complex issues that have remained unresolved for many years between the central government and the region, and establishes a new phase of cooperation based on the constitution and applicable laws, ensuring a fair distribution of revenues and protecting the rights of all Iraqis."

Historically, Kurdish oil has been a source of conflict since 2005, with the region insisting on its right to export independently via Turkey, while Baghdad rejected this route as an encroachment on the central government's authority. The 2023 international arbitration ruling to halt exports via Ankara constituted a major pressure point that prompted the acceleration of negotiations that led to the current agreement.

Askar added, "Unifying oil policy will contribute to strengthening financial and economic stability, increasing Iraq's negotiating power in global markets, and enhancing trust between Baghdad and Erbil, which will positively impact the investment environment and the national economy in general."

Research estimates indicate that the absence of a unified position has cost Iraq significant losses in its negotiating power with international partners, while the current agreement opens the door to an Iraq better able to attract investment and ensure longer-term financial stability.

However, Askar stressed at the same time that "the serious and transparent implementation of this agreement will be the true measure of its success.

This requires strong political will and careful professional oversight to ensure that oil resources are a tool for state-building, not a source of renewed controversy." Comparative experience shows that any oil agreement of this type remains at risk of failure unless it is implemented with high professionalism and protected from political manipulation.

It becomes clear that the recent oil agreement between Baghdad and Erbil is no longer merely a technical settlement, but rather a political and institutional transformation that reorganizes the relationship along constitutional lines and establishes a long-awaited national oil partnership.

Statements by al-Sudani and Barzani confirmed that the political will is present, but the real challenge lies in transparent implementation and ensuring the equitable distribution of wealth. If the experiment succeeds, the agreement could mark the beginning of a new phase of economic and political stability in Iraq.

However, if it falters, the issue will return to the cycle of disputes that have plagued the country since 2005. Source: Baghdad Today + Agencies   https://baghdadtoday.news/283931-.html

Al-Sudani's Advisor: Iraq Is Experiencing A Rare "Price Boom" In Its Modern Economic History.

 Energy and Business   Shafaq News – Baghdad  The Prime Minister's financial advisor, Mazhar Mohammed Salih, revealed on Thursday that Iraq is experiencing a rare "price boom" unprecedented in its modern economic history. This boom is driven by low inflation rates, a remarkably stable exchange rate, and improved unemployment rates, all due to effective coordination between monetary, fiscal, and trade policies.

Saleh told Shafaq News Agency, "The inflation rate in Iraq has remained below 3% over the past three years, which is a low rate compared to what the country has experienced previously or what neighboring countries are witnessing."

The government advisor attributed this success to "the cautious monetary policy pursued by the Central Bank of Iraq, in coordination with fiscal and trade policies, which contributed to maintaining the purchasing power of the dinar."

He explained that "unemployment rates fell from 17% to 14% in a relatively short period, supported by economic policies aimed at stimulating the agriculture, investment, and trade sectors, while supporting local production played a direct role in creating new job opportunities."

Regarding the dollar exchange rate, Saleh explained that "the official rate of 1,320 dinars has maintained its stability, which has helped calm markets and limit the role of the parallel market, thereby reducing import costs and limiting price pressures on consumers."

He stressed that "fiscal policy played a pivotal role in controlling prices, with approximately 25% of the general budget (equivalent to 13% of GDP) allocated to support agricultural products, the food and medicine basket, fuel, and electricity, in addition to tax and customs exemptions, which eased the direct burden on citizens."

Within the framework of trade policy, Saleh pointed to the establishment of a network of cooperative-price stores (consumer and construction) that would help break monopolies and provide direct alternatives for goods, as part of what he described as "price defense," an effective tool for regulating markets and preventing unjustified price increases, according to the spokesman.

Despite the positive signs, the financial advisor warned of a potential challenge at this stage: "Commodity leakage across borders, due to price differences between the subsidized Iraqi market and neighboring markets. This requires tightening customs and trade controls without harming legitimate trade."

Saleh concluded that "the current 'price boom' Iraq is witnessing, a rare phenomenon in its modern economic history, must be built upon by rationalizing support and directing it toward productive sectors to achieve sustainable development, rather than relying solely on stability and consumption."  LINK

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

Trump Draws Line: No West Bank Annexation for Israel

Trump’s rejection of annexation signals both geopolitical pressure and financial recalibration, tying peace to the foundations of global restructuring.

Trump’s Firm Declaration

U.S. President Donald Trump delivered a clear message on September 25, 2025: he would not permit Israel to annex the West Bank, defying the demands of far-right members of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s coalition.

• “Not going to happen” — From the Oval Office, Trump stated: “I will not allow Israel to annex the West Bank. Nope, I will not allow it. It’s not going to happen.” [Reuters]

• “Time to stop now” — He added: “There’s been enough. It’s time to stop now.”

This puts Trump directly at odds with Netanyahu’s coalition, where annexation has become a rallying cry — especially following recent moves by France and other Western countries to recognize a Palestinian state [NYT].

Context and Regional Pressure

• Arab leaders’ influence: Trump’s declaration followed private assurances he made to Arab and Muslim leaders on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly. Officials reportedly warned that annexation would jeopardize regional stability and block future integration with Israel [Politico].

• International Court of Justice: In July 2024, the ICJ ruled Israeli settlements in the West Bank illegal, increasing global legal and diplomatic pressure on Israel.

• U.S. leverage: As Israel’s closest ally, the U.S. remains one of the only nations with real leverage to block annexation. Observers question, however, whether Trump’s stance will remain firm [Al Jazeera].

Strategic Calculations

• Netanyahu’s bind: Netanyahu must balance between his far-right coalition partners demanding annexation and the U.S. position that firmly blocks it.

• Trump’s peace agenda: This statement aligns with Trump’s push for a 21-point regional peace plan to end the war in Gaza and establish a framework for postwar governance.

• Signal to financial reset watchers: Just as Jim Pugh recently noted in reset discussions — peace is the “long pole in the tent” before financial restructuring can move forward — Trump’s rejection of annexation is not just political. It is about creating the geopolitical stability required for economic and monetary realignment.

Why This Matters

Trump’s decision highlights how geopolitics and financial restructuring are inseparably linked:

• Peace as a prerequisite: Blocking annexation is part of ensuring the region moves toward peace treaties — which reset analysts say are essential before any global monetary reset can proceed.

• Regional integration = trade flows: If Israel can stabilize ties with Arab neighbors, trade, investment, and resource allocation in the Middle East become more predictable — a necessary step for capital flows in a tokenized, asset-backed system.

• Dollar leverage at work: The U.S. is using political influence to maintain its strategic foothold in the Middle East, reinforcing the dollar’s role as tokenization and stablecoin regulation advance globally.

“This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.”

Trump–Erdogan Talks: Turkey at the Center of Sanctions, Oil, and Global Realignment

The White House meeting underscored how U.S.–Turkey relations intersect energy security, defense sales, and the financial restructuring now reshaping global power.

Sanctions Relief and F-35s Back on the Table
President Donald Trump and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan met in Washington on September 25, 2025, marking Erdogan’s first White House visit in six years. Trump suggested he may lift U.S. sanctions on Turkey “almost immediately” if Ankara halts Russian oil purchases, paving the way for Turkey’s potential re-entry into the F-35 fighter jet program. Reuters

The move represents a sharp reversal of earlier policy, where Turkey was expelled in 2019 after acquiring Russian S-400 missile systems. Erdogan framed the meeting as “conclusive,” while Trump indicated that Ankara could soon access advanced U.S. defense hardware once again. Politics Today

Russian Oil Purchases at the Core
At the heart of the talks was Turkey’s role as one of the largest buyers of Russian energy. Trump pressed Erdogan to cut these imports, presenting it as a way to undermine Moscow’s war financing while simultaneously strengthening U.S.–Turkey ties.

Although Turkey recently inked a 20-year LNG deal with U.S. supplier Mercuria, it remains heavily reliant on Russian oil and gas. Erdogan’s willingness to diversify reflects the strategic balancing act between East and West. Atlantic Council

Middle East, Syria, and Gaza as Leverage Points
Beyond oil and defense, Trump and Erdogan also discussed conflicts in Syria and Gaza, with Trump signaling that Erdogan could serve as an intermediary in Ukraine peace efforts. Both leaders emphasized their renewed alignment on Syria, reversing tensions from earlier years. Brookings

Why This Matters: Energy and Finance Intertwined
Turkey’s position illustrates how geopolitical bargaining over oil, arms, and sanctions is directly shaping the global financial restructuring. Ankara’s choices ripple through:

• Dollar hegemony – Will Turkey pivot toward U.S. LNG and defense deals, reinforcing Washington’s influence?

• BRICS alternatives – Or will Turkey hedge by maintaining Russian oil ties, deepening its energy and trade links with Eurasian powers?

This episode highlights the fragility of U.S. dominance and how energy flows, sanctions relief, and military sales are becoming financial levers in the global order.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

Trump and Pakistan: A Strategic Reset at the Edge of Energy and Finance

Trump’s outreach to Islamabad signals a deeper recalibration: holding Pakistan in the balance between dollar-based alliances and emerging non-Western financial orders.

Sharif’s White House Visit and U.S.–Pakistan Rapprochement

President Donald Trump hosted Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif at the White House on September 25, 2025, marking a thaw in U.S.–Pakistan relations. The meeting underscored Washington’s renewed interest in Pakistan’s strategic value. AP News, Reuters

Sharif used the visit to pitch American investment in key sectors—energy, agriculture, tech, and mining—inviting U.S. firms to tap Pakistan’s untapped potential. Reuters, The Indian Express

Energy Deals & Export Leverage

A major opportunity lies in energy and resource diplomacy. Islamabad has long relied on oil imports and external financing, making it vulnerable to leverage.

• Pakistan struck a landmark trade deal with the U.S. in July 2025 to develop its oil reserves and reduce tariffs, aligning Islamabad more closely with U.S. energy interests. AP News

• During his visit, Sharif emphasized both energy and mining as pillars for renewed U.S.-led investment. AP News, Al Jazeera, Indiatimes

• Crucially, on September 8, Islamabad signed memoranda of understanding (MoUs) with a U.S.-based firm to develop critical minerals and rare earth elements, framed as strategic assets for both parties. Al Jazeera

These steps suggest Pakistan is repositioning itself from being a resource consumer to a supplier in the U.S.-influenced global resource network—altering the flow of capital, energy, and leverage.

Defense, Security & Regional Mediation

The Trump–Sharif meeting also addressed security cooperation and regional mediation:

• They discussed counterterrorism and security alignment, reinforcing Pakistan’s role as a regional partner. AP News

• Sharif praised Trump’s mediation during recent India–Pakistan tensions and invited the U.S. to play a bigger diplomatic role in South Asia. AP News, AP News

• Importantly, Pakistan may leverage its strategic weight in the Middle East and South Asia, offering Turkey-like potential as a mediator in Gaza, Syria, and the Indo-Pacific.

This engagement signals a shift: diplomatic influence is being balanced with resource and financial alignment, not just military dependence.

Between Dollar and De-Dollarization

Where Pakistan sets itself in this moment may determine its financial trajectory:

• If Islamabad doubles down on U.S. energy, defense, and resource deals, it re-enters the dollar-aligned orbit with renewed leverage from Washington.

• But the push to develop critical minerals and rare earths hints at an alternate path: integrate into non-dollar, resource-backed networks leveraged by China, Russia, or BRICS actors.
  Pakistan’s pivot can influence whether it becomes a node in the new financial infrastructure emerging outside U.S. hegemony.

This choice is not just economic—it is deeply financial.

Why This Matters

The Trump–Pakistan meeting is more than diplomacy. It is a move in an evolving global chessboard where energy, security, and finance intertwine. Islamabad’s alignment might tip the balance between:

• Reinforcing U.S.-led global financial structures

• Or accelerating a transition toward a multipolar, resource-backed order

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

CFTC Moves to Allow Stablecoins as Collateral in U.S. Derivatives Markets

With the CFTC embracing stablecoins and tokenized collateral, U.S. policy is shifting toward integrating crypto into core financial plumbing, reshaping how value is stored, settled, and regulated globally.

The Initiative: What’s Changing

• The CFTC has officially launched an initiative to allow tokenized collateral (including stablecoins like USDC and Tether) for derivatives trading. CFTC

• Acting Chair Caroline Pham invited public feedback, with comments open until October 20, 2025. CFTC

• This builds on prior CFTC efforts—the Crypto CEO Forum, the Global Markets Advisory Committee’s (GMAC) Digital Asset Markets Subcommittee, and the President’s Working Group on Digital Asset Markets recommendations. CFTC, Cointelegraph

Key Elements & Stakeholder Reactions

• Under the proposal, stablecoins and tokenized assets could be treated similarly to cash or U.S. Treasuries when used as collateral. Cointelegraph

• Industry players — including Circle, Coinbase, Ripple, Crypto.com — praised the move. They argue that stablecoin collateral will lower costs, reduce risk, and unlock liquidity in derivative markets. Cointelegraph

• The push complements recently passed legislation (GENIUS Act) which regulates stablecoins and lays groundwork for their broader use in regulated financial systems. Cointelegraph

Implications:How This Fits Into Global Finance Restructuring

• Efficiency & Capital Utilization — Allowing stablecoins as collateral means firms and market participants can use digital assets to free up liquidity. This could redefine margin practices, reduce friction, and shift how capital is allocated internationally.

• Regulatory Recognition of Crypto’s Role — The CFTC’s move signals that stablecoins are not seen merely as speculative assets but now as infrastructural elements of finance. This adds legitimacy and encourages cross-border usage in trade, clearing, and settlement.

• Competition with Alternative Financial Systems — As BRICS and other nations build out non-dollar, commodity-backed, or gold-backed systems, U.S. acceptance of tokenized collateral strengthens the dollar/crypto hybrid model. It’s part of the tug-of-war over who sets standards for global finance.

• Risk & Oversight Challenges — With greater integration comes greater risk exposure: valuation, reserve backing, custody, settlement, governance of these stablecoins must be regulated tightly. Otherwise, financial stability could be compromised.

Why This Matters

This initiative by the CFTC isn’t just technical policy—it reflects a turning point. The financial order is evolving: derivatives markets may soon operate on rails that accept digital collateral; stablecoins may serve core functions in financial infrastructure; regulation is catching up to innovation.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.
