Dave   The Central Bank officially announces the completion of the payment of compensation to Kuwait

Dave  Baghdad / Obelisk: The Central Bank of Iraq announced, on Tuesday, December 21, 2021, the completion of the payment of compensation for the State of Kuwait.

The Central Bank said in a statement received by Al-Masala that the last remaining installment of Kuwait’s compensation amounting to 44 million dollars has been completed, and thus Iraq has completed the full payment of the compensation amounts approved by the United Nations Compensation Committee of the UN Security Council under Resolution No. 687 of 1991, A total of 52.4 billion US dollars for the State of Kuwait.

It is hoped that ending the payment of compensation, according to the statement, will contribute to removing Iraq from Chapter VII, as well as its impact on re-integrating the Iraqi banking system with the global banking system and benefiting from the financial abundance that will be achieved.

The UN Compensation Committee was formed in 1991, obligated Baghdad to pay $ 52.4 billion in compensation to individuals, companies, governmental organizations and others who incurred losses resulting directly from the invasion of Kuwait.

Iraq stopped making payments in 2014 during the war on ISIS, which took control of large parts of the country, but resumed payments in 2018.

Bobby Cahill   Flashing Bank Screens...... :LMAO:

Dave   Bobby Cahill Best news out of Iraq in YEARS

Bobby Cahill   I agree. Maybe all the Saddam era sanctions are over

Bobby Cahill   Although no one's produced what sanctions lol

Dave   well at least its a game starter.....

Bobby Cahill  Could be. Doesn't change much as far as what's needed within today's Iraq

Bobby Cahill   But yeah it's a big deal  Nice find so thank you

Dave   nickle....?

butterfly   My time is short since my lifer Marine arrived and we have been catching up on a lot of things. Have not had the time to post a lot of articles. BUT a few days ago, it did indicate that Kuwait would be paid off by the end of the year.

Dave   butterfly Still await UN's announcement

Bobby Cahill   Depends on the value of the coins right?

Dave  coins cost more than paper to mint

Bobby Cahill  the fils have to offset the denominations of the notes or they will go by the wayside and they did in 2004]\

Dave   had minted 25 dinar coins i recollect

21 Dec 21, 01:00 PM butterfly   I am waiting to post my signal, should be this week, keeping fingers crossed.

Bobby Cahill   question arises, can they mint the fils to fit the denominations and will they be accepted? Look at today's Iraq and there is very little need for "change" after purchases. Why's that? Because their lowest denom is a 250
