Tishwash:  Savaya speaks of a historic moment of pride for Iraq

US President Donald Trump’s envoy to Iraq, Mark Savaya, expressed his gratitude to UN Secretary-General Tony Guterres for his role in supporting the selection of former Iraqi President Barham Salih to lead the UNHCR, stressing that this decision represents international recognition of a figure with “great vision and deep experience.”

In a post, Savaya congratulated Barham Salih on assuming his new position, describing him as an “exceptional leader” capable of making a real difference in humanitarian issues related to refugees around the world, especially since he himself experienced being a refugee in earlier stages of his life.

He added that this appointment is “a historic moment and a source of pride for Iraq and its people,” noting that the arrival of an Iraqi figure to an international position of this magnitude reflects Iraq’s growing status on the world stage.

Savaya concluded his message by saying: “Congratulations to Dr. Barham. We ask God that your leadership brings hope and dignity to millions of people in need of support and protection.” link

Tishwash:  Central Bank: Regional businesses must be registered in ASICOD by the end of the year

Central Bank of Iraq

The Iraqi central bank has significantly reduced the supply of dollars and in a new decision imposed strict conditions for the payment of dollars to businessmen in the Kurdistan Region, which is described as a "political" move.

The central bank has reportedly reduced the supply of dollars by 50 percent in the past two weeks. The reduction is due to the decision to suspend the operations of four commercial banks, which had a huge impact and previously accounted for 40 percent of total dollar sales in the market.

Meanwhile, according to a new decision of the Central Bank, from December 1, 2026, any businessman in the Kurdistan Region if he is not registered in the system "Asicode", will be deprived of receiving dollars at official prices and can not import goods.

Shukri Jamil, president of the Duhok Chamber of Commerce, said that businessmen were previously asked to bring support from Baghdad, but despite the completion of measures, it is noticed that the decision is political and aims to shape the economy of the Kurdistan Region.

Shukri Jamil said that the goods of the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) companies have been detained in the port of Umm Qasr since November 3, so they call on the Kurdistan Regional Government and the Iraqi government to reach an agreement on this issue.  link

Tishwash:  Iraq welcomes the US Congress vote to repeal the authorizations for the use of military force.

 The Embassy of the Republic of Iraq in Washington welcomed the vote by the US House of Representatives to repeal the 1991 and 2002 authorizations for the use of military force against Iraq and to repeal the war laws.

The embassy confirmed in a statement, a copy of which was received by Al-Furat News, that "this step strengthens the partnership between Iraq and the United States and supports the bilateral relationship on the basis of dialogue and cooperation."

The embassy also looked forward to the US Senate vote in the coming days.

On September 11, 2025, the U.S. House of Representatives voted overwhelmingly to repeal the authorizations for the use of military force related to Iraq, as part of the National Defense Authorization Act, which outlines Washington's military policies.

The House passed the bill by a vote of 231 to 196, with unusual support from some Republicans: only four Republicans voted against it, while 17 Democrats joined the Republican majority in voting for the bill as a whole.

The most significant amendment in this bill was the repeal of the two older war authorizations: the 2002 authorization used to invade Iraq and the 1991 authorization related to the Gulf War. This amendment received broad support, with 261 representatives voting in favor and 167 against, including all Democrats and 49 Republicans—nearly one-fifth of the Republican Party.

It is worth noting that the US House of Representatives had previously approved the repeal of the 2002 authorization in 2021, while the Senate passed a bill in 2023 repealing both authorizations (1991 and 2002). Their repeal now represents a significant legislative step toward restoring the balance of power between the executive and legislative branches in war-making.  link

Tishwash:  Sudani discusses satellite internet licenses with US company SpaceX

On Thursday, December 11, 2025, caretaker Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani discussed with a delegation from SpaceX (Starlink)  the final stages of granting satellite internet licenses.

A statement from the office of Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani, a copy of which was received by Al-Jabal, said: “Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani received today, Thursday, a delegation from the American company SpaceX (Starlink), which specializes in network, information and communications technology, in the presence of the American Chargé d'Affaires to Iraq, Joshua Harris.”

According to the statement, the meeting included "discussions on the final stages of granting satellite internet licenses, including to SpaceX, and strengthening cooperation in the field of communications and services provided by the company and its coverage areas."

According to the statement, Al-Sudani pointed out that “Iraq has achieved an important shift in attracting various international companies and securing all their requirements and needs, including satellite internet systems, to sustain their work and activities,” stressing “the government’s interest and keenness to keep pace with the development of the world of communications and information technology and digital transformation through cooperation with SpaceX and its entry into the Iraqi market, which today includes many promising investment opportunities.”

Al-Sudani stressed that “work in the communications sector within Iraq has governmental priorities, foremost among them being the preservation of Iraq’s information and technological sovereignty, investing in the capabilities of young people specializing in this field, training them, and handing over the responsibility of work to them at a later time.”

The statement concluded, "For their part, the SpaceX (Starlink) delegation expressed their keenness and interest in working, providing services and cooperating in the information technology sector," stressing that "their company is ready to operate and work to provide satellite internet service within a short period, after officially obtaining a license to operate in Iraq  link

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

Twelve Critical RV Questions — Answered With Facts, Not Fiction

Clear answers for foreign currency holders seeking truth amid years of misinformation.

Overview

• No public RV date exists, as nations quietly align digital settlement rails, liquidity pools, and compliance systems behind the scenes.

• Real indicators are structural, including ISO migrations, cross-border settlement testing, and reconciliation efficiency — not rumors.

• Exchange readiness depends on legal compliance, documentation, and sovereign monetary frameworks, not insider tips.

Key Developments

• RV timing remains undisclosed, with no institution or government releasing dates or rates in advance.

• Valid exchange requires authentic, legally recognized currency, redeemable under national monetary law.

• Liquidity sources are sovereign, drawn from national reserves, asset-backed pools, and regulated liquidity windows.

• Post-exchange reality involves wealth management, taxation review, structuring, and long-term planning — not instant windfalls.

• Modern settlement systems (ISO 20022, digital assets, BRICS frameworks) are laying the groundwork for future value shifts.

• Silence is intentional, as infrastructure upgrades remain non-public until testing, verification, and interoperability are complete.

Why It Matters

For years, foreign currency holders have been misled by unverified claims, recycled timelines, and anonymous “sources.” This article replaces speculation with clarity — outlining what is actually happening inside the global financial system and what must be in place before any legitimate revaluation can occur.

Why This Matters to Currency Holders

Currency revaluation does not happen because of rumors — it happens when global monetary infrastructure changes. The transition to audited digital settlement rails, interoperable payment systems, and asset-linked liquidity pools creates the conditions for future value adjustments.

Understanding these facts protects currency holders from false hope while preparing them for real opportunities when systems activate. Those who recognize structural signals instead of speculative noise will be better positioned to respond responsibly, lawfully, and strategically if and when revaluation events occur.

Implications for the Global Reset

• Pillar 1 — Infrastructure Before Valuation: Global systems must be aligned, tested, and compliant before currencies can be repriced.

• Pillar 2 — Transparency Over Secrecy: Audited, regulated digital rails replace opaque, rumor-driven narratives with verifiable process.

Twelve Most-Asked RV Questions — Answered

1. When will the RV happen?
   There is no public date. Alignment happens quietly through infrastructure and compliance.

2. What indicators actually matter?
   ISO migrations, settlement testing, reconciliation accuracy, and interoperability.

3. Where does exchange money come from?
   Sovereign liquidity windows, national reserves, and asset-anchored pools.

4. Will my currency be accepted?
   Only authentic, legally recognized notes under national law qualify.

5. What rates should I expect?
   Rates remain locked until activation. No early releases occur.

6. Do I need a specific bank or appointment?
   Exchanges are expected to be scheduled, regulated, and compliance-based.

7. What documents do I need?
   Government ID, proof of address, and source-of-funds documentation.

8. What happens after the exchange?
   Wealth planning, structuring, taxation review, and asset management.

9. Is this linked to ISO 20022, BRICS, and digital assets?
   Yes. Modern settlement systems enable future value changes.

10. Is this safe and real?
    The infrastructure transition is real. Rumors are not.

11. Why is everything so quiet?
    Systems remain silent until testing and verification are complete.

12. What should I do now?
    Protect identity, organize documents, follow verified sources, ignore speculation.

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

Why Native American Settlements Come First in Systemic Financial Resets

Legal trust corrections lay the groundwork for clean asset, land, and monetary frameworks.

Overview

• Native American settlements are legal corrections, not payouts, addressing decades of mismanaged trust funds, land, water, and resource rights.

• Tribes are sovereign governments, holding treaty-protected assets that sit upstream in the U.S. legal and asset hierarchy.

• Settlement funding comes from lawful, pre-existing mechanisms, including court judgments, trust accounting corrections, and resource valuations already owed.

Key Developments

• Trust accounting failures are being corrected through court settlements and Department of the Interior trust reforms.

• Land, water, and resource ownership clarity is required before large financial, infrastructure, or monetary frameworks can operate cleanly.

• Federal settlement mechanisms are already authorized, including the Treasury Judgment Fund and Interior Department programs.

• Jurisdictional and ownership clarity precedes systemic restructuring, ensuring assets are properly titled and legally reconciled.

Why It Matters

Large-scale financial restructuring cannot proceed on top of unresolved legal claims. Native American settlements address foundational ownership, jurisdiction, and trust-accounting issues that must be resolved before broader asset, infrastructure, or monetary systems can function without legal challenge.

This is not delay — it is prerequisite work.

Why This Matters to Currency Holders

Currency revaluation and global reset narratives often overlook one critical reality: value cannot be reassigned on top of disputed ownership. Native American trust settlements resolve upstream legal claims tied to land, water, mineral rights, and resource valuations — assets that underpin national balance sheets.

Until these corrections are completed, large-scale financial resets, asset-backed structures, and valuation changes cannot be executed cleanly. These settlements signal system readiness, not postponement. For currency holders, this is evidence that foundational legal work is being completed — a necessary condition before any legitimate revaluation or restructuring can occur.

Implications for the Global Reset

• Pillar 1 — Legal Foundation Before Valuation: Ownership, trust, and jurisdiction must be corrected before assets can be repriced or digitized.

• Pillar 2 — Asset Integrity: Clean title to land, water, and resources strengthens sovereign balance sheets and future settlement systems.

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

Iraq Announces Completion Of The Five Projects For The Grand Faw Port By The End Of 2025

Economy | 12/12/2025   Mawazin News - Baghdad:  The Ministry of Transport announced the completion of the five main projects within the Grand Faw Port project by the end of this year, emphasizing the government's continued direct oversight of the project's details due to its strategic importance to Iraq and the region.

Ministry spokesperson, Maitham al-Safi, stated that the government recently held a meeting of the Higher Committee for the Development Project to review progress rates and discuss the latest developments on the ground, noting that work is proceeding according to schedule.

Al-Safi pointed out that one of the most significant recent developments was the opening of the road connecting to the Grand Faw Port, which had been in the detailed design phase.

He explained that the road construction is 68% complete, while the cumulative detailed design work has reached 83%, with significant progress being made on the railway line.

He further stated that the Grand Faw Port project is witnessing substantial progress in the implementation of its main projects, including the five berths, the connecting road, and the navigation channel, confirming that work is proceeding at an accelerated pace.

Regarding the container terminal, Al-Safi confirmed that it has reached an advanced stage of completion and is nearing handover. He added that the submerged tunnel, a crucial structural element that will enhance future port operations, has exceeded 80% completion.

He further stated that the five main projects within the Grand Faw Port project will be completed by the end of this year, paving the way for further infrastructure development.

Al-Safi concluded that the Ministry is working on a comprehensive future vision for the port, which will become one of the most important ports in the Middle East and a pivotal hub in the development corridor project.

The Grand Faw Port is a strategic project located in the far south of Iraq, on the Faw Peninsula in Basra Governorate. It aims to transform the country into a regional trade hub by connecting it to global transportation networks. The foundation stone for the project was laid on April 5, 2010.

The project costs approximately $4.6 billion, covers an area of ​​54 square kilometers, and is expected to have a depth of 19 meters to accommodate the largest commercial vessels.

Its handling capacity is expected to reach 99 million tons annually, making it one of the largest ports in the Arabian Gulf and the tenth largest globally.

In 2024, the concrete wall for the quays was completed, the pilings were prepared, and work began on the container yard, with work progressing in parallel, focusing on completing the last five projects simultaneously.

This year, significant progress has been made on the submerged tunnel, with most of its components installed, the pilings secured, and the tunnel itself submerged. This tunnel is considered a vital project within the Grand Faw Port.

 The  Grand Faw Port is expected to bring about a major transformation in regional and international trade by connecting Iraq to global transportation networks and facilitating the movement of goods between East and West.

A Flock of Black Swans Is Forming & the Power Elite Knows Exactly Why | Thornton & Schectman

A Flock of Black Swans Is Forming & the Power Elite Knows Exactly Why | Thornton & Schectman

Miles Franklin Media:  12-12-2025

Andy Schectman, Founder & CEO of Miles Franklin Precious Metals, sits down with Dr. Mark Thornton, Senior Fellow at the Mises Institute, for a deep-dive into the systemic fragilities building beneath the surface of the global financial system and why a flock of black swans is forming all at once.

Thornton explains how central banks, political elites, and entrenched power structures have spent decades inflating bubbles, suppressing interest rates, weaponizing currencies, and expanding government controls.

Now those policies are converging into a historic breaking point.

From the breakdown of the dollar-led order to BRICS building parallel payment rails… from exploding sovereign debt to the yen carry trade… from stress in the banking system to the widening disconnect between derivatives and physical gold & silver – the “unknown unknowns” are piling up.

 According to Thornton, none of this is random. The elites know exactly why these black swans are multiplying and why the public will be the last to see it.

Seeds of Wisdom RV and Economics Updates Friday Afternoon 12-12-25

Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

A Message to Our Seeds of Wisdom & Newshounds News™ Readers

For more than a decade, many of you have held foreign currencies with the hope that one day a global financial reset and revaluation would change your family’s future. You have remained patient, faithful, and committed — even as week after week, year after year, “RV gurus” declared this is finally the week, only for nothing to happen.

You deserve better than recycled predictions.
You deserve truth, clarity, and real evidence — not hype.

At Seeds of Wisdom and Newshounds News™, our mission is simple:
To give you facts, not fantasies.
To give you hope, not hype.
To give you understanding, not confusion.

The world is changing.
A global reset is not a myth — it is unfolding in real time through international finance, monetary restructuring, gold accumulation by central banks, new settlement systems, geopolitical realignment, and the slow erosion of dollar-centric frameworks.

But revaluation will not happen because a guru said it will.
It will happen when:

• Global monetary architecture shifts,

• New settlement systems are activated,

• Liquidity and sovereign-debt frameworks are reset,

• And nations restructure how value moves across borders.

These are the signals we track every day — not rumors, but verifiable developments happening across the world’s financial system.

🌱You have waited a long time.🌱
Our commitment is to walk this part of the journey with you honestly, respectfully, and transparently. We will continue bringing you real news, structured analysis, and the global indicators that truly matter for foreign currency holders.

We honor your patience.  We honor your hope.
And we promise to protect that hope from the noise that has misled this community for far too long.

A reset is coming —
But this time, you will see it with clear eyes, grounded understanding, and the truth you deserve.

NATO Expands Caribbean Enforcement as France Seizes 2.3 Tons of Cocaine

Drug-route security tightens amid rising geopolitical coordination across NATO and U.S. partners.

Overview

• France intercepts 2.3 tons of cocaine in the Caribbean, part of a dramatic rise in 2025 counter-trafficking operations.

• U.S. and NATO allies increase maritime enforcement, intensifying activity near Venezuela, Colombia, and Haiti.

• Record drug-route disruptions highlight growing regional instability, prompting new EU and NATO policy measures.

Key Developments

• French naval forces intercepted an unflagged vessel carrying over 2,360 kg (5,200 lbs) of cocaine — one of 2025’s largest seizures.

• Over 31 tons of narcotics have been seized in the Antilles-Guyana zone this year, signaling escalating cartel activity and security risks.

• U.S. Coast Guard operations continue at high tempo, with multiple multimillion-dollar seizures across the Caribbean and Eastern Pacific.

• MAOC-N and NATO partners intensify joint intelligence operations, disrupting long-established Atlantic trafficking routes.

• France proposes an EU sanctions regime targeting transnational drug networks, linking organized crime to geopolitical instability.

Why It Matters to Foreign Currency Holders

For those waiting on foreign-currency revaluation, developments like this matter far more than most realize. Major narcotics routes often fund non-state actors, corruption networks, and destabilizing forces inside countries whose currencies people are holding. A global currency reset requires financial stability, transparent capital flows, and strong international cooperation — the exact conditions these operations aim to build.

This article signals that:

• NATO and EU frameworks are expanding, stabilizing regions tied to major trade and currency corridors.

• Governments are tightening enforcement and sanctions, prerequisites for any future asset-backed or rules-based global financial architecture.

• Law-enforcement coordination is increasing, a step required before cross-border settlement systems or global liquidity resets can be trusted.

This is the kind of real-world progress that matters for RV timelines — not guru predictions, but structural cleanup of geopolitical and financial instability, which always comes first.

Implications for the Global Reset

• Pillar 1 — Structural Clean-Up: Successful counter-narcotics operations strengthen regional financial integrity — a requirement for future currency realignment and compliant international settlement systems.

• Pillar 2 — Coordinated Enforcement: NATO, EU, and U.S. multi-agency coordination reflects the tightening of global governance frameworks that typically precede monetary restructuring.

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

U.S.–Venezuela Tensions Surge as Military Escalation Signals Possible Conflict

Washington’s show of force reshapes power balances in the Western Hemisphere.

Overview

• U.S. intensifies pressure on Venezuela, escalating from sanctions to direct tanker seizures and expanded counter-drug strikes.

• Major U.S. military assets deployed to the Caribbean, including F-35s, B-52 bombers, and carrier-based aircraft near Venezuelan airspace.

• Venezuela responds with military mobilization, accusing the U.S. of attempting regime change to seize control of its oil resources.

Key Developments

• Energy and shipping tensions escalate as the U.S. intercepts Venezuelan oil shipments, prompting international maritime warnings.

• Operation Southern Spear expands, with U.S. forces conducting patrols, exercises, and simulated strikes across the region.

• Trump administration signals readiness for “land strikes”, while Maduro swears in thousands of new troops to counter U.S. pressure.

Why It Matters

This confrontation is no longer just political—it reflects a deeper struggle over control of the Western Hemisphere’s energy corridors, shipping routes, and monetary influence. As the U.S. asserts the Monroe Doctrine and military operations expand, regional instability increases the risk of sanctions spillover, supply chain disruptions, and commodity volatility across the Americas.

Why This Matters to Currency Holders

Heightened U.S.–Venezuela conflict could accelerate shifts in global oil flows, payment routes, and the use of alternative settlement systems outside the U.S. dollar—especially among BRICS-aligned states supporting Venezuela.

Any disruption in the Caribbean and Gulf shipping lanes can affect energy prices, liquidity conditions, and the pace of de-dollarization across Latin American economies. Currency holders should watch for ripple effects on commodity-linked currencies, parallel-market rates, and regional dollar scarcity.

Implications for the Global Reset

Pillar: Energy Power Realignment
U.S. enforcement of the Monroe Doctrine brings the Western Hemisphere into sharper geopolitical competition, pushing alternative blocs to develop independent oil, trade, and payment channels.

Pillar: Acceleration of Alternatives to Dollar Settlements
Venezuela’s alignment with BRICS partners increases incentives for non-USD trade settlements, reinforcing a multipolar financial system.

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

U.S. Advances Plan for International Stabilization Force in Gaza

Washington prepares multinational deployment as part of Trump’s second-phase Middle East peace framework.

Overview

• U.S. officials outline early-2025 deployment of an International Stabilization Force (ISF) under a UN mandate to demilitarize Gaza.

• Indonesia offers up to 20,000 troops, signaling broad Muslim-world participation in the stabilization phase.

• ISF to operate in Israeli-controlled zones, enabling potential phased Israeli withdrawal while supporting Palestinian police reintegration.

Key Developments

• A U.S. two-star general is being considered to lead the mission, which will not directly engage Hamas but will assist demilitarization and civil reconstruction.

• Force deployment dependent on final approvals from the Trump-established Board of Peace, including decisions on size, composition, and rules of engagement.

• Indonesia’s contribution marks a major diplomatic shift, creating momentum for wider Muslim-majority involvement and potential Arab-world legitimacy.

• Operational contradictions persist, as Hamas refuses disarmament without statehood, heightening risk for ISF entanglement.

Why It Matters

The ISF is the first tangible step toward a new Middle East security architecture that blends international oversight with phased Israeli disengagement. If successful, the plan could redefine regional power arrangements, reshape diplomatic alliances, and alter Washington’s credibility in peace enforcement. Failure, however, risks a protracted entanglement and renewed instability.

Why This Matters to Currency Holders

Major geopolitical transitions in the Middle East often trigger oil market volatility, shifts in petrodollar flows, and new alliances that affect global settlement systems.

A multinational force in Gaza—especially one backed by Indonesia and potentially other non-Western partners—signals rising influence from states exploring non-USD settlement frameworks. Any change in regional stability affects energy pricing, global liquidity, and the pace at which Middle Eastern nations diversify away from the dollar. Currency holders should watch for ripple effects across oil-linked currencies, sovereign risk ratings, and cross-border payment realignment.

Implications for the Global Reset

Pillar: Geopolitical Realignment in Energy & Security
International intervention in Gaza changes regional alignments and increases incentives for Middle Eastern states to strengthen economic ties with BRICS and alternative financial systems.

Pillar: Fragmentation of Dollar-Dominated Structures
The entry of large non-Western contributors like Indonesia highlights shifting global leadership roles and widens pathways for non-USD economic coordination.

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

Pakistan Partners With Binance to Tokenize Up to $2 Billion in Sovereign Assets

Islamabad moves to modernize its financial system and attract global capital through blockchain-based asset digitization.

Overview

• Pakistan signs MoU with Binance to tokenize up to $2 billion in sovereign bonds, T-bills, and commodity reserves.

• Regulators grant initial approval to Binance and HTX to establish licensed operations inside Pakistan.

• Nation accelerates digital asset regulation, aiming to become a regional hub in tokenized finance.

Key Developments

• Tokenization initiative aims to improve liquidity, transparency, and global access to Pakistan’s sovereign assets via blockchain.

• Pakistan Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority approves preliminary registration for Binance and HTX as they prepare full licensing applications.

• Islamabad is building a comprehensive digital asset framework, including a dedicated regulator and new licensing laws.

• Move aligns with Pakistan’s plans for a central bank digital currency, marking a structural transition in its financial architecture.

Why It Matters

Pakistan’s initiative is one of the most aggressive state-level tokenization programs attempted by any government, signaling a fundamental redesign of sovereign asset management.

By partnering with major exchanges, the country seeks alternative financing avenues, improved transparency, and a competitive digital-finance ecosystem despite ongoing economic stress. The effort positions Pakistan as a potential model for other emerging markets seeking to digitize their balance sheets.

Why This Matters to Currency Holders

Tokenizing sovereign assets is a major step toward digitized national balance sheets, a hallmark of the coming global financial reset. As developing nations adopt blockchain-based debt and commodity structures, the world moves closer to post-SWIFT settlement rails, multi-currency collateral systems, and digital sovereign liquidity pools.

 These transitions weaken the dominance of legacy currency valuations and open the door to re-priced national currencies based on real-asset-backed digital instruments. Pakistan’s move signals accelerated global momentum toward asset-backed, interoperable financial systems—precisely the environment in which currency revaluations become feasible.

Implications for the Global Reset

Pillar: Tokenized Sovereign Finance
Digitization of government assets creates a new template for emerging markets to restructure debt, issue collateralized digital bonds, and integrate into non-Western capital markets.

Pillar: Multipolar Payment Systems
Pakistan’s alignment with Binance and other global digital platforms reinforces the shift toward decentralized, non-USD financial rails, supporting broader de-dollarization trends.

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

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

Global Markets Flash Warning: China Slowdown & Fed Cuts Signal Structural Reset

Financial markets surge while economic foundations weaken — signaling a deeper global realignment.

Overview

• China acknowledges weakening investment, prompting new state-driven stimulus and signaling structural stress inside the world’s second-largest economy.

• Global equities rally on fresh Federal Reserve rate cuts, masking fragility beneath soaring asset prices.

• Tech volatility resurfaces, showing cracks in overvalued sectors as traditional markets rotate toward real-economy assets.

Key Developments

• China issues concern over falling fixed-asset investment, pushing Beijing to prepare additional fiscal measures as demographic and productivity pressures accelerate.

• European and U.S. markets hit record highs following the Fed’s latest rate cut, with banks and cyclicals leading gains despite AI valuation concerns.

• Major tech weakness emerges, highlighted by sharp declines in key firms after disappointing earnings, renewing fears of an AI-driven market bubble.

• Liquidity expansion returns as a global theme, with central banks increasingly prioritizing financial stability over anti-inflation discipline.

Why It Matters
Monetary easing, structural slowdown in China, and market dependence on liquidity reveal a global system shifting away from traditional Western-centric growth and dollar-tightening cycles. These moves expose deeper fractures in the current financial order — accelerating the transition toward distributed, multipolar economic coordination.

Implications for the Global Reset

• Pillar 1 — Liquidity as Policy: Renewed rate cuts reinforce a strategic pivot toward global liquidity expansion, a prerequisite for restructuring sovereign debt, capital flows, and reserve frameworks.

• Pillar 2 — East-West Divergence: China’s structural slowdown and stimulus plans amplify pressure for non-dollar settlement systems, supporting a broader multipolar financial architecture.

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

‘The Unit’ Makes BRICS Gold-Backed Unified Currency Real

BRICS launches a gold-anchored digital settlement prototype — “The Unit” — aiming to reduce dollar reliance through a 40% gold / 60% currency-basket design.

Overview

• Prototype launch & structure: The Unit launched as a working prototype (100 Units initially issued by IRIAS) and uses a 40-gram gold + 60% BRICS-currency basket reserve model.

• Settlement role, not replacement: Designed as a trade settlement instrument (Cardano-based) that does not replace national currencies but reduces reliance on the U.S. dollar.

• Immediate market effects: The pilot has already boosted gold demand for reserve backing and shifted settlement flows among BRICS members, with the Unit’s value adjusting to 0.9823 g of gold per Unit (Dec 2025).

Key Developments

• Technical implementation: IRIAS engineered The Unit on the Cardano blockchain and announced the initiative in November 2025, creating a neutral cross-border settlement mechanism.

• Reserve composition & membership: Reserve basket blends 40g physical gold with equal weightings of Brazil’s Real, China’s Yuan, India’s Rupee, Russia’s Ruble, and South Africa’s Rand; the bloc of ten members (BRICS + Egypt, Ethiopia, Indonesia, Iran, UAE) are implicated in settlement trials.

• Central-bank accumulation: Major BRICS central banks (notably Russia and China) have increased gold holdings, strengthening credibility for a gold-anchored settlement layer.

• Political caution: President Putin urged a careful, gradual approach—citing Eurozone lessons and saying BRICS has no immediate goal of a single currency rollout.

• Liquidity & coordination limits: Gold’s lower liquidity vs fiat, diverse member exchange-rate regimes, capital controls, and the need for cross-member regulatory/infrastructure coordination remain major constraints.

Why It Matters
The Unit represents a structural attempt to rewire international settlement mechanics away from dollar-centric corridors. Even as a pilot, it shifts how reserves are used (active settlement vs passive storage) and forces policy, market, and central-bank responses that accelerate global finance restructuring — not only in trade invoicing but in strategic reserve accumulation and geopolitical leverage.

Implications for the Global Reset

• Pillar 1 — Reserve Recomposition: A move from fiat/dollar reserves toward gold-backed settlement units forces central banks to reallocate reserves, intensifying global gold demand and altering currency risk profiles.

• Pillar 2 — Alternative Settlement Architecture: Establishing a Cardano-based, gold-anchored settlement layer creates a parallel payment and trade infrastructure that reduces exposure to U.S. banking corridors and sanctions leverage.

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

Iraq Economic News and Points To Ponder Friday Morning 12-12-25

Trump's Envoy Warns: Iraq's Future Hinges On Decisions In The Coming Weeks.

Political | 10:57 - 11/12/2025  Mawazin News – Baghdad:  US President Donald Trump’s envoy to Iraq, Mark Savaya, stated that Iraq, 23 years after the fall of the dictatorship, stands at a “critical juncture,” emphasizing that no state can succeed “while armed groups compete with the state and undermine its authority.”

In a statement, Savaya affirmed that “this division has weakened Iraq’s international standing, stifled its economy, and diminished its ability to protect its national interests.” He added that “the experience of the past three years has proven that genuine stability is possible when the government adopts a realistic and balanced approach that keeps the country out of regional conflicts and refocuses on national priorities.”

He added that "commemorating the eighth anniversary of the victory over ISIS and the successful completion of parliamentary elections place a direct responsibility on the shoulders of political and religious leaders.

The decisions they make will determine whether Iraq moves toward sovereignty and strength or slides back into fragmentation and decline." He stressed that "a unified and rational choice will send a clear message to the United States and the international community that Iraq is ready to take its place as a stable and respected nation in the new Middle East. The alternative is economic deterioration, political turmoil, and international isolation."

Savaya continued, "The United States, under President Trump's leadership, stands fully prepared to support Iraq during this critical phase." He noted that he and his team are "committed to working closely with Iraqi leaders to establish a strong state, a stable future, and a sovereign Iraq capable of shaping its own destiny in the new Middle East."

Dollar Prices Rise Again In Baghdad's Local Markets

Economy | 11:11 - 11/12/2025  Mawazin News - Baghdad:   The exchange rate of the US dollar has risen again in local markets in the capital, Baghdad, amid normal trading activity. 

The selling price at currency exchange offices reached 143,500 dinars per 100 US dollars, while the buying price was 142,500 dinars.  This increase comes amid limited fluctuations in the parallel market in recent days.

Gold And Precious Metal Prices After The US Interest Rate Cut

Economy | 12:09 - 11/12/2025   Mawazin News - Follow-up:   Gold prices declined globally after the precious metal reached its highest level in nearly a week, amid a split within the US Federal Reserve regarding interest rate cuts.

 This left investors uncertain about the pace of monetary easing next year, while silver continued to reach new record highs.  Spot gold fell 0.2% to $4,221.49 per ounce by 03:00 GMT, after earlier touching its highest level since December 5th.

Meanwhile, US gold futures for February delivery rose 0.6% to $4,249.70 per ounce.

Tim Waterer, senior market analyst at KCM Trade, said, "Gold has not been able to advance after today's events, as the Fed has made it clear that any further interest rate cuts will be limited and spaced out," indicating that the gold market is still trying to digest the direction of monetary policy next year.

The US Federal Reserve cut interest rates by 25 basis points on Wednesday in an unusually divided vote, while confirming that borrowing costs would not be lowered further until there are clearer signs of a slowing labor market and a decline in inflation, which it described as "still fairly high."

In an unprecedented move, six policymakers opposed the cut, and Fed Chair Jerome Powell avoided giving any clear indications about the timing of the next rate reduction.

Lower interest rates are generally seen as supportive of non-yielding assets like gold, as they reduce the opportunity cost of holding them, prompting more investors to seek refuge in the safe haven.

Traders are now awaiting the release of US jobs and inflation data for November next week, followed by a detailed report on third-quarter economic growth, for further clues on the future path of interest rates.

As for other precious metals, silver rose 0.8% in spot trading to $62.25 an ounce, after hitting a record high of $62.88 earlier in the session. Its year-to-date gains now stand at 113%, driven by strong industrial demand, declining inventories, and its inclusion on the U.S. list of critical metals.

Ilya Spivak, head of global macros at Tasty Life, said, "Silver has been largely unaffected by external factors and has been rising independently. I don't see any indication of a pullback at the moment."

Platinum also rose 0.3% to $1,660.50 an ounce, while palladium slipped 0.2% to $1,479.70, in cautious trading ahead of further signals from the Federal Reserve and U.S. economic data. https://www.mawazin.net/Details.aspx?jimare=271448

The administration noted that "Iraq came in first place among Arab countries as the largest exporter of oil to America, ahead of Saudi Arabia, which came in second with exports of 7.380 million barrels, and Libya came in third with exports of 1.440 million barrels."    https://economy-news.net/content.php?id=63299

Good Evening Dinar Recaps,

China Signals Trade Pushback as Tariff Disputes Intensify

Beijing warns against protectionist tariffs amid record $1 trillion trade surplus, raising global supply chain concerns

Overview

• China’s exports surged in 2025, producing a record $1 trillion trade surplus.

• The Chinese Premier publicly urged trading partners to resist protectionist tariffs from the U.S. and EU.

• Persistent disputes may fracture global supply chains and accelerate regional trade blocs.

• Analysts warn that continued tariff escalation could reshape global commerce and investor strategies.

Key Developments

Record-breaking trade surplus
China’s trade surplus reached $1 trillion in 2025, highlighting the scale of its export-driven economy and prompting concern among trading partners.

Official warning on tariffs
The Chinese Premier stressed that protectionist measures risk destabilizing global economic governance, signaling a potential policy clash with Western powers.

Market and supply chain implications
Businesses and investors are assessing disruption risks to manufacturing hubs, rising input costs, and accelerated supply chain diversification toward alternative regions.

International oversight and commentary
The International Monetary Fund cautioned China to rebalance toward domestic consumption to reduce reliance on exports and prevent further trade friction globally. 

Why It Matters

Heightened trade tensions between China and Western economies are a structural driver of economic fragmentation, influencing global supply chains, investment flows, and diplomatic alignments, while encouraging alternative regional blocs.

Implications for the Global Reset

Pillar 1: Fragmentation of Trade Networks
Rising tariffs push economies toward regionalization and political alignment, reducing reliance on globalized supply chains.

Pillar 2: Multipolar Economic Realignment
China’s resistance to Western tariff pressure underscores a shift toward a multipolar global economy, challenging U.S.-led trade norms and creating new geopolitical balances.

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

Central Bank Uncertainty Drives Safe-Haven Demand

Investors seek gold, high-quality bonds, and currency buffers amid unclear monetary policy

Overview

• Heightened uncertainty about central bank interest rate decisions is influencing investor behavior globally.

• Demand for safe-haven assets like gold, government bonds, and select currencies is rising.

• Volatility in equity and currency markets reflects growing concerns over policy shifts and inflation expectations.

• Financial institutions and traders are adjusting portfolios to hedge against potential market disruptions.

Key Developments

Investors flock to safe-haven assets
Markets are witnessing increased buying of gold and high-quality sovereign bonds as investors respond to ambiguous signals from central banks.

Monetary policy ambiguity
Uncertainty over Federal Reserve rate guidance and potential European Central Bank adjustments is creating volatility in global equity and currency markets.

Impact on global markets
Rising safe-haven demand is affecting commodity prices, FX flows, and bond yields, highlighting the interconnected nature of monetary policy and investor behavior.

Portfolio strategy shifts
Traders and institutional investors are hedging risk with diversified positions, including gold ETFs, U.S. Treasuries, and other low-risk assets to safeguard against potential market shocks.

Why It Matters

Central bank policy uncertainty can amplify market volatility, impact funding costs, and influence cross-border capital flows. Safe-haven trends often signal broader economic caution and can reshape investor priorities and global asset allocations.

Implications for the Global Reset

Pillar 1: Asset Reallocation
Increased safe-haven demand signals a reallocation of global capital toward low-risk and strategic assets, potentially reducing liquidity for riskier emerging markets.

Pillar 2: Monetary Policy Influence on Global Finance
Central bank decisions directly shape interest rates, currency strength, and investor confidence, underscoring the critical role of monetary policy in the evolving global financial architecture.

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

Iraq Economic News and Points To Ponder Thursday Evening 12-11-25

Cardinal Sako: Iraqis Are Waiting For The Birth Of A New Iraq

Thursday, December 11, 2025 12:00 | Politics Number of views: 340  Kirkuk / NINA / Cardinal Louis Raphael Sako stated that Iraq is a country of immense importance, not only because of its geographical location, its historical identity, its civilizations, and its wealth, but also because of the vitality of its people, their ethnic and religious diversity, and the radical thinking and creativity of its sons and daughters.

He added: After the fall of the previous regime in 2003, Iraqis aspired to a new, safe, stable, democratic, and sovereign Iraq, with a civil system that ensures equality for all citizens and places their interests above all other considerations.

However, what transpired was a system of sectarian power-sharing and tribal sheikhdoms, which paved the way for the bitter experience of ISIS, legalized corruption, spread bribery, and established militias that, over time, became more powerful than the state, driving Iraqis, especially the elite, to emigrate!

In a message, Sako stated that today, after 22 years of experience and the recent parliamentary elections, as we prepare to welcome the new year of 2026, shouldn't we seriously revisit the essence of the change that occurred in 2003 and its objectives?

This should be a courageous step towards correction and reconciliation. He emphasized that crises are not resolved by force, but rather by embracing contemporary culture—a more rational and realistic culture that prioritizes service, social, cultural, legal, and economic institutions, similar to those in developed countries—through dialogue, understanding, and the search for common ground.

He pointed to the importance of respecting the rule of law and implementing the concept of citizenship. Therefore, the current constitution should be amended to protect the rights and freedoms of all citizens as true and equal partners in the nation.

 He stressed the need to confine weapons to the state and make this a priority for the next government, as armed factions do not build a state. He also called for rejecting unilateralism, preoccupation with private interests, and the struggle for power and "representation."

Finally, he emphasized the need for a strong and developed economy through concrete steps, serious monitoring of corruption, and the recovery of stolen funds for the state treasury.

He stressed that delaying the formation of the government does not serve the country, therefore it is imperative to expedite the formation of a new government that reflects the aspirations of the Iraqi people—a government that is sovereign and decisive, capable of restoring Iraq's well-being and prestige, a government that strives to implement justice, equality, and integrity, and to address failures and crises and provide services through actions, not promises. /End   https://ninanews.com/Website/News/Details?Key=1266256

Prime Minister's Advisor: The Development Path Is Entering The Implementation Phase

Reconstruction and building   Economy News – Baghdad  With the final designs completed (100%), the Development Road project enters a crucial phase that paves the way for its transformation from a strategic plan to an executive reality.

Nasser Al-Asadi, the Prime Minister’s Advisor for Transportation and Development Affairs, confirmed in an interview with Al-Sabah, which was followed by Al-Eqtisad News, that the project has officially moved to the marketing and international investment attraction phase, explaining that the completed designs are currently undergoing technical review before being launched.

The Development Road is the largest economic project in the history of modern Iraq, as it aims to create a land-rail corridor extending from the Grand Faw Port to the Turkish border, passing through a number of governorates.

Al-Asadi revealed that Iraq has received investment offers from several countries, including Turkey, the UAE, Qatar, and Oman, with growing interest from the Gulf states. He explained that the final route, agreed upon between Baghdad and Erbil, will pass through Dohuk and reach Fishkhabur, as it is the least expensive and easiest to construct, according to studies by an international consultant.

The project aims to reduce trade time between Asia and Europe to 15 days. Al-Asadi also indicated that the expected revenues, whether from current or future investments, are estimated at billions of dollars, with financial and economic studies to be announced soon. He emphasized that the project will provide numerous job opportunities and form a cornerstone for strengthening the national economy.   https://economy-news.net/content.php?id=63284

Launch Of The "Ameen" Digital Platform To Combat Cybercrime And Extortion In Iraq

Money and Business   Economy News – Baghdad   The National Security Service announced on Thursday the launch of a new digital platform called "Amin" aimed at combating cybercrimes and the increasing cases of extortion within Iraqi society.

The agency's spokesman, Arshad al-Hakim, said at a press conference that "with the expansion of the communication environment and the growth of cyber threats, the agency realized that the confrontation is not only in the field, but also includes content and blackmail."

The governor added that the new application was developed in response to citizens' requests for protection against blackmail, explaining that the "Amin" platform allows for direct and secure handling of blackmail-related images and videos, without the need for complex procedures. The application also provides users with immediate notification when necessary.
The spokesperson noted that the registration and operation mechanism was designed by the Electronic Operations Unit within the National Security Service, to ensure speed and efficiency in dealing with emergencies and to protect citizens’ digital rights.

The launch of the “Ameen” platform comes as part of the agency’s efforts to enhance cybersecurity and protect society from growing digital crimes, which contributes to raising the level of trust between citizens and security agencies.
