Clare: Al-Saadi: Closing the dollar selling platform will not affect its prices
1/2/2025 Information / Anbar..
Economic expert Rashid Al-Saadi confirmed today, Thursday, that stopping the work of the electronic platform for selling the dollar does not affect the rise in the price of the US currency, noting that the decision came as a result of pressure from the US Federal Reserve and internal parties.
Al-Saadi said in a statement to the Al-Maalouma Agency, “The platform was a form of control imposed by the US Federal Reserve, and its cancellation allows Iraq to return to the banking system that was in effect before 2003, where the merchant relied on the correspondent bank without the need for this system imposed by America.”
He added that "the Central Bank of Iraq has started a plan to deal with a basket of foreign currencies to compensate for the dollar and open up to foreign banks, with the aim of reducing dependence on the US dollar," stressing that "closing the platform did not significantly affect the rise in the dollar price as some media outlets promoted.”
He pointed out that "the Central Bank allowed 36 banks to deal with other foreign currencies, including those covered by US sanctions, to mitigate the damage caused by reliance on the dollar." LINK

Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] FIREFLY:They're giving us instructions now on TV and standards. They call it for the circulation and exchange of bank notes. They tell us this mechanism is a unification...These are instructions on how to bring in our 3-zero notes... They just told us this mechanism will include a form of counting and sorting currency. They say this will be implemented 2nd of January. FRANK: This is great news.
