butterfly   Parliamentary Finance: The rise in oil prices will contribute to the stability of the dollar exchange

2021-07-06 08:29   Parliamentary Finance - The rise in oil prices will contribute to the stability of the dollar exchangeShafaq News/ The Parliamentary Finance Committee suggested, on Tuesday, that the rise in oil prices would contribute to stabilizing the exchange rate of the US dollar against the Iraqi dinar in the local markets.

Committee member Ahmed Al-Hajj Rashid told Shafaq News Agency, “Oil prices in global markets recorded their highest price in years after the OPEC group agreement, especially after the recent increase in demand for oil.”

He added that “the rise in the exchange rate of the dollar affected the citizens and people with limited income, and this caused a rise in the prices of real estate, food, construction and all commercial goods and merchandise.”

And Rashid indicated, “The rise in oil prices will contribute to the stability of the dollar exchange rate in front of the Iraqi dinar through the central bank pumping the currency into the market to control the change in exchange rates.”

Oil prices continued to rise today, after yesterday’s rise, with the cancellation of production talks for OPEC + countries, but fears that members may begin to increase production limited the gains.

After the Iraqi government’s decision to reduce the value of the Iraqi dinar against the US dollar in late 2020, the exchange rate of every $100 reached 145,000 dinars, which led to a significant increase in prices in the Iraqi market.

This price was fixed in the federal budget for the year 2021, and since then until now the dollar exchange rate has not been stable, as it continued for about three months below the official exchange rate, rising in recent months and reaching 151 thousand dinars per 100 dollars.   shafaq.com

“We want to carry out an operation that everyone describes as revenge against Washington,” Abu Ala’ al-Walai, the secretary-general of Kata’ib Sayyid al-Shuhada’, said in an interview with the Associated Press, explaining that “the process of revenge against the Americans may be land, sea, air, or any Place”.

And the US Department of Defense announced in a statement that “on (last June 27), the US military launched, under the direction of President Joe Biden, precise defensive air strikes against facilities used by Iranian-backed militias in the border area between Iraq and Syria.”

The Iraqi National Security Ministerial Council held an emergency meeting headed by Al-Kazemi at the time, devoted to discussing the repercussions of the American bombing of a site on the Iraqi-Syrian border.

The Council affirmed its intention to resort to all available legal options to prevent the recurrence of such “aggressions” that violate Iraq’s airspace and territory, in addition to conducting a comprehensive investigation into the circumstances of the accident and its causes, and working to prevent it from recurring in the future.

butterfly   Parliamentary Finance: The application of Al-Kazemi’s white paper is “almost impossible”

Tuesday 6 July 2021 | 01:46 PM   Parliamentary Finance - The application of Al-Kazemis white paper is almost impossibleA member of the Parliamentary Finance Committee, Jamal Kougar, considered, on Tuesday, that the implementation of the white paper announced by Mustafa Al-Kazemi’s government, is “almost impossible” in light of the political parties’ control of state resources, as he put it .

Cougar said, “The white paper announced by the government earlier was based more on the theoretical side than the practical, and the evidence is that the 2021 budget law that came from the government before it was passed in Parliament was devoid of all its paragraphs from the articles of the paper .”

He added that “the government is talking today about the percentages of achievement related to the implementation of the White Paper. In fact, they are exaggerated rates,” stressing that “the implementation of the White Paper is almost impossible due to the control and domination of some political parties over the state’s resources .”

He explained, “If the government does not leave the control of these parties, the country will not witness an economic recovery. The country’s life will not be achieved through the international community, because these parties control everything and work according to an external agenda that sometimes helps them even by standing against the development of the local product.”   aynaliraqnews.com

Tuesday 06 July 2021 21:34.........I demand today, Tuesday, the Supreme Judicial Council, to correct a discriminatory decision regarding the elections.

In a statement, the coalition stated, “We demand the correction of the discriminatory decision issued by the Discriminatory Commission in the Independent High Electoral Commission, and a return to the final, final and non-appealable decisions issued by the Discriminatory Commission for accountability and fairness as the body exclusively competent in this matter.

” He explained that Civil Procedure Law No. 83 For the year 1969, it was allowed to appeal against the decisions of the Court of Cassation if it violated an express provision of the law, and if the cassation decision contradicted a previous decision of the Court of Cassation issued in the same case without the litigants changing in substance or subject matter, and in accordance with Article 221 of the same law, which gave a seven-day period To request correction of the discriminatory decision, starting from the day following the notification of the decision.

And to correct the discriminatory decision issued by the Electoral Judicial Authority in the Independent High Electoral Commission because it contradicted a previous decision issued by the Discriminatory Commission in the Accountability and Justice Commission without That the opponents change the subject or subject.

the first when it exceeded its competencies, and promised The decision not to include candidates for elections in the accountability and fair procedures was a decision taken by the Commission and therefore accepted to appeal it on this basis, and this is not true.

This decision was taken by the Discriminatory Commission in the Accountability and Justice Commission, not the Board of Commissioners, and therefore it was assumed that this responseThe appeal is a form of the original, and the second is by violating a final and final cassation decision issued by the competent seven-party cassation body in the accountability and justice commission.

butterfly   He stressed, "We are in a coalition determined to protect the Iraqi judiciary from making such legal mistakes, which harm the image of the Iraqi judiciary, and may have been interpreted as politicizing this judiciary. Therefore, we demand the correction of the discriminatory decision issued by the discriminatory body in the Independent High Electoral Commission, and a return to final decisions And the final and non-appealable issued by the cassation body in accountability and fair as the body competent exclusively in this matter.

sandyf   @Sheila @Dave When I read that, one point came to mind - Rates having Parity in the Middle East - There can never be parity unless the variables are similar, Kuwait and UAE have billions in circulation, Iraq has trillions. I can remember when there was parity between the UK and US, $2.40/GBP and 240 pennies/GBP. Then there was a redenomination in the UK making 100 pennies/GBP. A redenomination in Iraq would bring the currencies much closer together.
