12 Dec 21, 10:19 AM butterfly  An Economist Explains The Most Important Ways To Get Rid Of Internal And External Debts

Economic  Last Update 12/12/2021 | 9:15 AM  The economic expert, Dr. Safwan Qusay, explained that Iraq has the possibility to get rid of internal and external debts by relying on public and private sector companies and transfer part of the debt towards these companies and internal and external investments.

Qusay told Al-Maalouma, "Iraq does not currently need internal or external borrowing, and it should work at the present time to gradually reduce and zero its debts over the next five years."

He added, "The next government, if it thinks of paying, can transfer a portion of the indebtedness to the private sector and profit-oriented public companies, as a path to repay these internal debts."

And he indicated that "Iraq can pay off foreign debts by forcing the investor to buy debts for specific investment opportunities, especially at the level of profitable opportunities in the petrochemical industry or other industries."

He pointed out that "if the government adopts the method of investing in exchange for debt purchase, or reducing the indebtedness of the Ministry of Finance in some public companies in exchange for transferring this internal indebtedness to the profitable oil and transport companies, it is possible to zero the debts." https://almaalomah.me/2021/12/12/570267/

"Iraq has become an attractive arena for investments, which requires an efficient banking sector to keep up with that," he continued.

The head of AMF appraised the successful policy of CBI and Makhif's efforts to ensure the openness of Iraq's banking sector to the world.

The Iraqi Private Banks Association chair, Wadi' al-Handhal shed light upon the centrality of the banking sector for economic progress and the role of this event in revitalizing the ties with the banking sector in the world. https://www.shafaq.com/en/Economy/Expo-Dubai-hosts-Iraqi-Banks-Week-CBI-governor-Iraqi-banks-are-expanding-overseas

Bobby Cahill   Strange thing is that if all that is true, why are those funds being frozen? Gotta look at it as it's either US or Euro right? So the US and EU can freeze those. I read an article the other day about Barzani owning a CVS in Miami lol. Corrupt protect the corrupt. Don't forget the US issued and official EO in 207 talking about do just that, freezing corrupt assets

Dave   to be paid by 2022

Bobby Cahill   Well the 82 under sanctions was given back in 2013

Bobby Cahill   Along with the DFI monies

Dave   Bobby Cahill Butterfly posted some news on that days ago

Bobby Cahill  Yeah we have to look at these articles and go back historically and see how it relates. In this case they were talking about historical Iraq

Dave   COI cant collect on frozen accounts until out of Ch7......250 billion usd at least

Bobby Cahill   This is from the publication Diplomatic Courier and a Q & A with the Iraqi Ambassador

Bobby Cahill   [DC:] With the lifting of Chapter 7 sanctions in June 2013, $82 billion in frozen assets were released and Iraq once again has control of its oil revenues and policy. Specifically, where will this help Iraq’s economic development?

[LF:] For the first time in over two decades, Iraq participated in the United Nations General Assembly this year as a fully-fledged member of the international community, following its removal from Chapter 7 of the UN Charter. The lifting of sanctions gives Iraq and international companies the ability to do direct business, specifically in the areas where the sanctions had the most impact. For example, in an effort to rehabilitate its national carrier, Iraq recently purchased 30 Boeing planes.

Sparky   Bobby Cahill ... historical Iraq carried a $2.70 ... without so much Dinar in circulation ...

Bobby Cahill  Sparky And Iraq alsohad a differnt currency structure

Sparky  ... swiss dinar ...

Dave   Bobby Cahill Iraq still Ch7.......need the links......apparently UN has not changed that from 2013?

Bobby Cahill   Heck most of Iraq's debt is Sadam debt and most of the current sanctions are Sadam related

Dave  not sure what kinda of CH7 means?

Sparky   Bobby Cahill ... Sadam made up his own value ...

Bobby Cahill   Dave That's where we have to look at the overall picture in Iraq and what they are being allowed to do, and not do. So far there is nothing restricting Iraq as a country from entering the global markets. Just today they are participating in a banking expo

Dave  Sparky Swiss Dinar had a value

Bobby Cahill   Iraq's problem is tat they can neither support, or sustain an economy or currency value

Sparky   ... I don't even think he wanted to trade outside North Africa ... stole 100$USD notesnto try and subvert the USA economy ...

Dave   Bobby Cahill My take CBI dont want it it yet....could force their hand?

Bobby Cahill   Dave The CBI knows for a fact that there is NO way to take the currenct IQD to FOREX or international trade

Dave   pretty much

Bobby Cahill    Thjey are looking at the 4 numbers just like we are. Then there are the 4 stability's as well

Sparky   ... Sadams mission was to subvert the USA economy ... fact ...

Bobby Cahill   so 4 different set of stabilitys

Dave   social ecomomic and political

Bobby Cahill   and monetary  The monetary is leading the race towards stability .. BVut the Banking Sector needs help

Sparky  ... GWB placed him there when he washead of the CIA in the '70s ...

Dave  No private banking laws yet to protect foreign investment

Bobby Cahill   Well they have an Investment Law that provides protection, even a single window for investors, it's just not implemented properly

Dave   Bobby Cahill yes need to get folks to get to the banks and make loans

Sparky   ... sorry, not W ... his father ...GHB ...

Dave   Bobby Cahill need 3rdr reading...Done?

Bobby Cahill  On the Investment Law? It's already in the Gazette

Sparky   ... all the puppets in the middle east, we put there ...

Bobby Cahill   Some say it needs amending and that may be true, but on it's own, it's a sound law

Dave   Bobby Cahill ????? missed that boat

Sparky   ... if they even think of a golden dinar, they take a dirt nap ...

Bobby Cahill   Investors look at Iraq just as we do. They see potential, just no Political will. They also want to see those stability's

Dave   Bobby Cahill Bingo....Look at the UAE

Sparky   ... every oil transaction is in USD ... think about that ...

Bobby Cahill   https://investmentpolicy.unctad.org/investment-laws/laws/205/iraq-investment-law-

Dave   Sparky CBI converts it to IQD....how they make money on the spread?  Worlds currencies based on USD

Bobby Cahill   The 5 Majors (IMF SDR Basket) control the world of currencies

Dave   USD still KING?

Bobby Cahill   I saw where Billy Goat said Iraq would be in that Baskey. What a nutcase

Bobby Cahill    Still king but losing it's % in the SDR Basket

Sparky   Dave ... the exchange is how they survive ... as I know ...

Dave   and those infamous auctions

Sparky    ... but, then again, I know squat ...

Dave   Sparky dont listen to Kap then?

Bobby Cahill    That's another thing that if implemented properly, would be fine. But once the Banks get involved, so does Plitics ……..Politics ……. Maybe my keyboard needs new batteries

Sparky   Dave ... Kaps a good dude, and believes what he believes ...

Dave   Bobby Cahill 1 yr ago 30% of Iraqis had bank accounts

Bobby Cahill   The CBI has pulled it's hair out on Financial Inclusion. Trust issues for sure

Dave   must be surviving from all thoses notes stuffed in mattresses

Bobby Cahill   The only thing that will get all that into the Banks is a revalue or redenomination'

Bobby Cahill The devalues keep eroding that trust
