Chattels In Iraq, PM nominee Adnan Zurufi begins work to form cabinet. Those aligned with Iran push back: Hadi Ameri of Fatah, Nori Maliki of State of Law, Falih Fayyahd of PMF (Hashd), & Amar Hakim of Hikma. LINK
chattels Maliki, Ameri and others who think #Iraq president Barham Salih acted unconstitutionally when naming al-Zurfi as PM designate could have complained in the past when he didn't designate their "biggest bloc" candidate, but on 2nd try those objections have less constitutional basis. In retrospect, the tactical error of the most pro-Iranian parties in Iraq was the way they handled the initial nomination of Muhammad Tawfiq Allawi as #Iraq PM designate, supporting it & going along with it for a while without protest before changing their mind much later.

chattels Why is the Chief Justice attending a political meeting between bloc leaders and MTA to negotiate government formation? Now that Zaydan has inserted himself directly into the debate over the nomination of the next PM, this question seems a lot more relevant than it did a week ago: https://twitter.com/UticaRisk
chattels Chief Justice Zaydan with another attack on the Supreme Court. Says he disagrees with their interpretation of Article 76 on procedures for nominating PM. His position basically validates Fateh/SoL’s opposition to Barham’s designation of Zurfi. https://hjc.iq/view.6673/
chattels Iraq faces financial calamity after crude crash https://news.yahoo.com/iraq-faces-financial-calamity-crude-crash-023653505.html
chattels " Between plummeting oil prices, political deadlock and reduced global appetite for a bail-out, Iraq is on the cusp of financial calamity that could force austerity measures and renew anti-government protests. But officials appear remarkably optimistic, a view experts described as being "in denial" given forecast oil crashes would cost Iraq two-thirds of its net income this year."
chattels " Iraq is the second-biggest crude producer in the OPEC oil cartel, and typically exports around 3.5 million barrels per day. Its draft 2020 budget was based on a projected price of $56 per barrel. Brent oil prices tanked this week to $26 per barrel ............."
chattels " With prices slashed to $ 30 / barrel, Iraq's net income would drop 65 percent in 2020 compared to last year, incurring a monthly deficit of $4 billion just to pay salaries and keep the government running."
chattels "There is some anxiety, but it's not acute," CBI governor Ali Allaq told AFP. "Oil prices will not stay at this level. We don't expect them to go up a lot, but enough to secure the required amount," he said.

chattels Oil rally loses steam as ECB move fails to calm markets
Analysts predict oil prices have further to fall. https://www.rudaw.net/english/business/19032020
chattels “With a global recession upon us with an indeterminate end, and a price war in full cry by oil producers, the world should probably be preparing itself (for) sub-$20 oil sooner rather than later,” said Jeffrey Halley, senior market analyst at OANDA.
