The Iraqi Central Bank "disbelieves" political promises to change the price of the dinar

Today, Thursday, the Central Bank of Iraq denied what some political forces promised to raise the value of the Iraqi dinar against the dollar, stressing that the file is linked to the bank exclusively, amid warnings against exploiting the file politically.

The deputy governor of the bank, Ammar Hamad Khalaf, said in a statement to the official Iraqi newspaper, Al-Sabah, that "there is no change in the dollar exchange rate," stressing that "monetary policy is the exclusive competence of the bank."

The denial of the Central Bank of Iraq comes days after political forces raised the file of raising the value of the Iraqi dinar against the dollar, within the movement to form the new government, which is still stumbling so far.

The last of them was the representative of the Coordination Framework, Ibtisam Al-Hilali, who said that "the framework coalition has started a move to collect parliamentary signatures to restore the dollar to its previous price."

And she confirmed in a press statement, "The framework movement in this regard is still going on until the will of the Iraqi people is achieved, which was affected as a result of the high exchange rate of the dollar," noting that "the government raised the exchange rate in order to supplement the 2012 budget, and now it has obtained additional funds following the rise in the price of the dollar." oil"

The representative of the "State of Law" within the coordination framework, Dhurgham Al-Maliki, also confirmed that the new parliament will reconsider the decisions taken by the previous parliament, including the exchange rate of the dollar, stressing that "the coordination framework is moving towards the return of the dollar exchange to its previous price, and to correct mistakes and lapses." caused by the previous parliament.

He added that "the financial abundance in the Central Bank, the stability of the economic situation in the country, and the high price of a barrel of crude oil, necessitate us to move towards this step, especially since the exchange rate (of the dollar) remains unjustified, and that the Iraqi citizen is the only one who pays price hike tax.

The successive statements about the exchange rate change affected the local market. According to a member of the Baghdad Chamber of Commerce, Ali Al-Zubaidi, "the statements made by some forces regarding the exchange rate are among the attempts to make money, and they do not correspond to reality." Al-Zubaidi explained to "The New Arab", that "changing the exchange rate cannot be taken directly. Because this will have significant economic impacts, so any decision requires extensive study and calculation of its consequences.

He pointed out that "changing the exchange rate requires overlapping operations, arranged according to economic feasibility, not just political promises," stressing that "those promises and political statements confused the market and affected price stability, and caused the cessation of many commercial operations," stressing "the need for "Politicians are moving away from those promises, which are not really aimed at achieving the people's interest, as much as they are statements of political gain."

It is noteworthy that the file of changing the exchange rate, which was carried out by the government of Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kazemi, at the beginning of its formation, as it adopted a new exchange rate of 1450 Iraqi dinars to the dollar, after it was 1220 dinars, as part of what it described as the government’s reform policy, and this affected the raising of goods prices in the local market.

The file was exploited politically throughout this period by some parties, especially during the election period, and promised to raise the value of the Iraqi dinar and return it to what it was, and currently the file is also exploited within the controversy of forming the government. link
