"Digital euro would maintain freedom to choose how Europeans pay - ECB
With Europe inching towards the issuance of a digital euro, the ECB has embarked on a charm offensive, taking to media outlets across the continent to reassure citizens that the new payments option will compliment, not replace, cash and provide them with greater freedom of choice.
While a final decision on issuing a digital euro has yet to be made, the ECB last year moved onto a two year preparation phase ahead of any launch, which would come in 2026 at the earliest.
In an article published in a host of publications, executive board member Piero Cipollone makes the case for a digital euro, noting that "we do not yet have a cash equivalent for making digital payments, which limits our freedom in an increasingly digital age"."

"Central banks must raise game in face of AI - BIS
Central banks should embrace artificial intelligence to sharpen their analytical tools in pursuit of financial and price stability, according to the Bank for International Settlements.
AI will have a transformative effect on the financial system, labour markets, productivity and economic growth, says the BIS in a new report which warns that widespread adoption could have repercussions for inflation dynamics.
"The rapid and widespread adoption of AI implies that there is an urgent need for central banks to raise their game," says the BIS. "Central banks need to upgrade their capabilities both as informed observers of the effects of technological advancements as well as users of the technology itself."
*************
As a user of the technology, central banks can boost nowcasting by using real-time data to better predict inflation and other economic variables and to sift through data for financial system vulnerabilities, allowing authorities to better manage risks."

Global Markets in Turmoil as Yen Crashes to Historic Level Against the US Dollar

Japan Government Prepares for Massive Yen Intervention
Impact on Gold, Oil, and Bond Markets
Concerns Over Global Financial Contagion
Expert Opinions on the Yen’s Future
The Japanese yen has tumbled to its weakest value since 1986 following comments from Japan’s Vice Finance Minister Masato Kanda. This historic decline comes despite government recent efforts to stabilize the currency, raising concerns about a global financial contagion.
Japan Government Prepares Massive Intervention
Vice Finance Minister Masato Kanda expressed serious concern over the yen’s rapid depreciation, labeling the moves as “one-sided.”
He reassured the public that the government is closely monitoring the market with a high sense of urgency.
Kanda emphasized that all necessary actions would be taken against any excessive movements, though he refrained from commenting on whether the current situation qualified as excessive.
Earlier statements by Kanda indicated that Japanese authorities were ready to intervene in the currency markets at any time. Finance Minister Shunichi Suzuki echoed this sentiment, stating that all possible measures would be taken to manage market developments.
Despite these reassurances, the yen’s value continued to slide, prompting further market volatility.

Yen Plummets to Historic Level Today: Rising Above 160 Yen to the US Dollar
Impact on Gold, Oil, and Bond Markets
The yen’s depreciation against the dollar creating a cascading effect on various markets today.
The stronger dollar has triggered significant selling in gold, oil, and treasury bonds. Investors are reacting to the uncertainty and potential for further market disruptions, resulting in increased volatility across global financial markets.
Gold, traditionally seen as a safe-haven asset, saw its value drop as the dollar strengthened.
Similarly, oil prices were impacted, with fears of a broader economic slowdown weighing on demand.
The bond market also experienced turbulence, with Japanese interventions reportedly funded through the sale of US treasuries.
Concerns Over Global Financial Contagion
The continued weakening of the yen has sparked fears of a broader global financial contagion.
Japan’s extensive, but unsuccessful interventions in the currency market have raised eyebrows internationally, particularly in the US.
The US Treasury Department recently added Japan to its “monitoring list” for foreign-exchange practices, reflecting growing concern over the potential impacts of Japan’s actions on global markets.
Experts worry that a collapse of the yen could trigger a domino effect, destabilizing other currencies and markets worldwide.
The inter-connected nature of global finance means that significant movements in one major currency can have far-reaching consequences, including leading to a global financial crisis.
Expert Opinions on the Yen’s Future
Market analysts are divided on the yen’s future trajectory. Some suggest that Japanese authorities might intervene if the yen’s value exceeds 160 against the dollar. While others suggest that authorities might wait for even more volatility before stepping in again.
Despite these differing views, the consensus remains that the yen’s path forward is fraught with uncertainty.
The government’s current measures appear woefully insufficient to stem the tide, and further much more drastic interventions will be necessary to prevent a complete collapse of the Yen.
The Bottom Line
The yen’s decline to its weakest level since 1986 has set off alarm bells in global markets. Despite reassurances from Japanese officials, the currency’s rapid depreciation has highlighted the limitations of government interventions.
As fears of a global financial contagion grow, the yen’s future remains uncertain, with increasing ramifications for markets and economies worldwide.

Pope Francis’ urgent appeal to global finance ministers and economists
The need for a new international financial architecture
The 2025 Jubilee Year as a catalyst for debt relief
Insights on the pope’s economic perspective
As the global fiat currency debt system faces undeniable collapse, Pope Francis has made a powerful appeal supporting international mechanisms for debt relief ahead of the Vatican’s 2025 Jubilee Year.
He lamented that poorly managed globalization has deprived millions of a dignified future.
In order to try to break the debt-financing cycle, it is necessary to create a multinational mechanism, based on the solidarity and harmony of peoples, that takes into account the global nature of the problem and its economic, financial and social implications.
Pope Francis, June 5th 2024
“We find ourselves facing a debt crisis that mainly affects the countries of the south of the world, generating misery and anguish, and depriving millions of people of the possibility of a dignified future,” said Francis on June 5. “Consequently, no government can morally demand that its people suffer deprivations incompatible with human dignity.”
The pope called for a new international financial architecture to break the financial-debt cycle that has contributed to a current global debt now estimated at $313 trillion.
He is likely referring to and putting his support behind the ongoing BRICS+ development of a new gold-backed currency and financial system when he speaks of the “Global South.”
Pope Francis’ Call to Action
Francis’ remarks were delivered during a meeting with participants in the “Addressing the Debt Crisis in the Global South” conference.
Organized by the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences, the conference included some 50 finance ministers, economists, and international development agency heads.
The meeting comes as major legislation is being considered in New York and the United Kingdom on sovereign debt restructuring.
It occurs at a time when both church leaders and development groups are pushing for greater foreign debt relief, coinciding with the upcoming 2025 Jubilee Year, a once-every-quarter-century event that includes the Biblical tradition of forgiving debts.
“For this reason, dear friends, the Holy Year of 2025, to which we are heading, calls us to open our minds and hearts to be able to untie the knots of the ties that strangle the present, without forgetting that we are only custodians and stewards, not masters,” Francis told conference participants.
The Need for a New Financial System
Eric LeCompte, the leader of Jubilee USA, a network of religious and development groups advocating for international debt relief, described the pope’s remarks as “powerful and forceful.”
LeCompte, who attended the Vatican conference, noted that “secular institutions are aware that 2025 is a Jubilee Year” and are interested in using it to push new policies for a better global financial model.
“Debt can no longer be disconnected from the broader economic stability of nations,” said LeCompte. He believes that the pope has always understood this connection, as evidenced by his proactive stance on economic reform.
“The north really owes a debt to the south because we took all of their resources and fueled industrialization,” he said. “We took from them and now we owe them a debt to be able to ensure their economic stability.”
The Impending Collapse of the Fiat Currency System
In his June 5 remarks to economists and financial leaders, Francis emphasized the need for a multinational mechanism for dealing with debt to counteract an “every man for himself” attitude, where “the weakest always lose.”
According to LeCompte, what the pope is really demanding is a “global transformation of our financial system” to address the collapse of the current fiat currency debt system.
While Francis is building on the teachings of Popes John Paul II and Benedict, LeCompte pointed out that Francis speaks from direct experience, having faced long-standing economic crises during his time as Archbishop of Buenos Aires.
“He stared down the barrel of a gun from these vulture funds in Argentina … and led his country through the greatest economic crisis the country had ever faced,” said LeCompte. “He has a direct understanding of these issues, saw what they did and saw what inequities in the financial system do to developing countries.”
The Bottom Line
Pope Francis’ call for a new financial system and a global debt jubilee ahead of the 2025 Jubilee Year is a clarion call for economic justice.
His emphasis on the interconnectedness of global financial stability highlights the moral imperative for global financial leaders to act.
The ongoing collapse of the global fiat currency debt system underscores the urgency of his appeal, as the world can no longer deny or wish away these critical issues.
The BRICS+ development of a new gold-backed currency and financial system offers a tangible solution, aligning with the pope’s vision for the future.

On January 30, 2024, the Hezbollah Iraq Brigades announced the cessation of its operations against US forces in order to “not embarrass the Iraqi government,” recommending its fighters “temporarily negative defense.”
Iraqi armed factions launched periodic attacks on US bases in Iraq and Syria, which began in late October 2023, against the backdrop of the Gaza war.

Tishwash: European Union: The Iraqi government has achieved development in international investment
The European Union announced, on Wednesday, that the Iraqi government has achieved progress in international investment, while noting that it sets an example of cooperation with international legal standards.
The European Union Ambassador to Iraq, Thomas Seiler, said in his speech during the launch of the National Investment Commission conference in cooperation with the United Nations Development Programme, entitled (Mediation: New Horizons for Facilitating Business and Retaining Investors in Iraq), followed by “Al-Iqtisad News,” “I congratulate the Iraqi state and business leaders on the great Iraqi achievement.” represented by the signing of the Singapore Agreement on Mediation,” indicating that “this agreement is considered a basic international treaty that seeks to reach a settlement between the conflicting parties.”
He added, "One of the points of importance for the Iraqi government is the development in international investment as well as commercial transactions, taking into account that disputes may arise due to differences between parties across countries. Therefore, when this happens, the parties need an appropriate method to resolve these disputes in an efficient manner and in an appropriate time, and thus mediation."
It is the one who does this, as it provides an opportunity for the parties to resolve the problem effectively when disputes arise. It also gives an opportunity for the parties to maintain working relationships, which is consistent with the best interest of investors as well as local companies who seek to move forward with investment operations, which are extremely important for Iraq.
He explained that "Iraq, by signing the Singapore Convention, has clearly sent a signal about its commitment to developing the mediation infrastructure, and therefore this requires adopting legislation to enforce mediation operations that take place based on approvals issued by Iraqi courts and are applicable to the parties, as well as the list of countries joining this increasing convention, represented recently by the accession of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Jordan and Iran."
He continued: “After Iraq ratified the New York Convention 2021, we welcome the great efforts to adopt the mediation law and I believe that it will be launched soon,” noting that “the issue of ratification is very important and therefore the Iraqi government is providing evidence and an example of alignment and cooperation with international legal standards as well as through the adoption of these mechanisms for effective alternative dispute resolution, as they are very important for enhancing investment as well as economic development and stability.”
He pointed out that "Iraq has made great progress in the United Nations program as well as through international programs," stressing "the Iraqi government's continued support for this process link

He stressed that "the noticeable improvement in the investment climate in Iraq comes as a result of government efforts made to strengthen the economic and investment sector, in attracting foreign investments," calling on foreign companies, foreign investors and businessmen to "visit Iraq to learn about the investment opportunities included in the investment map, and to attend the forum."
"Iraq Investment Bank, which will be held next November, will launch more than 100 investment opportunities with integrated approvals, and review the benefits and guarantees that the investment law will provide to investors." link

Mnt Goat She [my CBI contact] said that her committee was directed to be ready in June and did plan in June to begin the project to delete the zeros but the Central Bank as not yet received the assurances needed in writing from the US Treasury that they would support us fully all the way through the process. To me this meant to conduct the project to delete the zeros, swap out the notes and then onward to the reinstatement of the dinar. I was assured I was correct in my thinking. I already knew this as this was all in the Dr Shabibi plan anyway. This was just a confirmation that they are still closely following this part of the plan anyway... the US is still holding back and not fully supporting the financial reforms and the events that were supposed to happen at the end of the second phase of the reform process. [Post 1 of 2....stay tuned]
Mnt Goat So as investors where do we stand with the RV? Based on this information from my Saturday call to Iraq, I will summarize it for you. We are still waiting for the US to give assurances. The project to delete the zeros was scheduled for June and we will still have a week remaining in June. This is all I know and can tell everyone at this point... But I will tell you that I was told last month that for us to see the RV, there was only two phases and that they were completing the 2nd phase in June. So go figure… What would you now think?

The US Is About To Be Blindsided By Saudi Arabia And China
Atlantis Report: 6-26-2924
There has been a significant change happening in the global economic and geopolitical landscape.
The United States, traditionally a dominant force, is facing a challenge from an unexpected partnership between Saudi Arabia and China.
Motivated by their own economic and strategic goals, these two countries have been quietly working together.
Their growing alliance will disrupt the current power balance and force the U.S. to make a huge adjustment to its approach.
The U.S. dollar has been the primary currency used in the global oil trade for many years. This was supported by an agreement in which Saudi Arabia, a major oil exporter, exclusively sold oil in dollars.
This arrangement, known as the "petrodollar" system, has been crucial in maintaining U.S. economic strength by ensuring a steady global demand for the dollar and U.S. Treasury securities.

CBDCs can improve cross-border payments, financial inclusion in the Middle East: IMF
Cross-border payments are one of the key areas CBDCs can improve, the Washington-based lender of last resort says. Oil exporters in the region have been grappling with cross-border inefficiencies for decades. Existing solutions like Buna, a multi-currency cross-border payment system, have failed to make the expected impact.
“CBDCs that address these inefficiencies could significantly cut transaction costs,” the IMF said.
The most advanced cross-border CBDC project in the Middle East is mBridge, which includes the UAE and, as of this month, Saudi Arabia. mBridge, which also includes China, Hong Kong, and Thailand, entered the MVP stage recently.

The dollar index, which measures the U.S. unit against six peers, was steady at 105.64, while the euro was at $1.0715.

Several Iraqi governorates witnessed, on Wednesday morning, demonstrations demanding the provision of basic services, including water and electricity.
In a new escalation of protests in Dhi Qar Governorate, demonstrators closed the governorate’s office building and its council, until demands were met, according to video scenes obtained by Shafaq News Agency.
As for Babylon, dozens of residents of the Khamisiyah and Al-Ghazali areas demonstrated in front of the Babylon Governorate Office, to demand the provision of water to their areas, which suffer from unprecedented scarcity.

The capital, Baghdad, woke up to the launch of two demanding demonstrations in Tahrir Square and in front of the Provincial Council building.
According to Shafaq News Agency correspondent, dozens of “whose appointments were canceled and those fleeing from the Ministry of Defense” gathered in Tahrir Square, to demand their return to service.
In a second demonstration, dozens of educators and administrators gathered near the Baghdad Provincial Council, to demand the issuance of an appointment order for them.
Iraq has been suffering from a chronic electricity shortage for decades, as a result of the siege and successive wars, and residents have been protesting for many years the frequent power outages, especially during the summer, when temperatures sometimes exceed the 50 degree Celsius barrier. link

MP calls for investment on Friday and Saturday in reconstruction and construction due to the large number of holidays
Baghdad - Iraq Today:
Member of the House of Representatives Thaer Al-Shuwaili said that Friday and Saturday should be invested for the reconstruction of the country, while he was indignant at the large number of holidays announced by the government from time to time.
Member of Parliament Thaer al-Shuwaili said, "The frequent disruptions affect the administrative system in general and not only the Iraqi economy, as Iraq is today going through a stage of construction and reconstruction, and Alan has begun to recover from the effects of wars and neglect."
He noted that "Friday and Saturday are supposed to be invested in construction for advanced stages." "There are many occasions and days that deserve to be declared official holidays, especially on important occasions," he said.
"All Iraqis are affected by the disruption, especially those groups who are sustenance on a daily basis, especially at this stage that accompanies the high cost of living," al-Shuwaili said. He pointed out that "most citizens are happy to announce official holidays in the country, and this situation is not true."
He stressed that "time is very important, as the phenomenon of frequent holidays we see only in Iraq, as citizens in the global system outside Iraq have a capitalist ideology to invest time to build their country."
He warned that "official working hours are suspended when temperatures rise in the country, and this is not in the interest of Iraq and its economy, and even at the level of social networking sites, we may find that the public can by pressuring local governments in each province to disrupt the official working hours, and the governor's opinion is moved through their demands."
He continues, "There must be a vision and a study of the extent to which these holidays affect the country, its economy and its systems, so at least working hours in departments and institutions must be compensated when official working hours are suspended."
US Economy on the verge of collapse: The Rise and Fall of the Empire
Fastepo: 6-26-2024
The United States has long been recognized as an economic superpower and a global leader. However, this dominant position has faced significant challenges in recent years, particularly due to the rapid economic growth of China.
In this video, we will explore the historical trajectory of the U.S. economy, examining how it evolved from a leading global economy through various challenges to its current state, where it grapples with a national debt crisis and the trend of de-dollarization.
We will trace the ups and downs of the U.S. economy, from its post-World War II boom to the economic turmoil of the 1970s, the technological advancements and economic growth of the 1990s, and the significant setbacks during the 2008 financial crisis.
We will also delve into the recent impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, which caused a severe economic contraction and led to unprecedented government stimulus measures.
Today, the U.S. faces a mounting national debt, which has surpassed $31 trillion, and increasing calls for de-dollarization from emerging economic powers. These issues pose substantial risks to the U.S.'s economic stability and its position in the global financial system.

China’s currency is not as influential as once imagined
Its share of international reserves has stalled
Chinese officials seem pleased with the yuan’s recent progress as a global currency. The international monetary system is diversifying at an accelerating pace, said Pan Gongsheng, the governor of China’s central bank, in March. The yuan has become the fourth-most active currency in global payments, he noted. In trade finance, it now ranks third. And according to the central bank’s data, about half of China’s transactions with the rest of the world (for financial assets, as well as goods) are now settled in yuan.

India digital currency transactions slump after reaching initial c.bank target, sources say
Usage of India's digital currency, the e-rupee, has slumped to just a tenth of the peak hit in December, four sources said, reflecting the struggles several countries have experienced in trying to generate public support for digital currencies.
The achievement came only after banks were asked to push up transactions by offering incentives to retail users and disbursing a portion of bank employees' salaries using the e-rupee.
But now that the push has diminished, daily transaction numbers have fallen to about 100,000, said two of the sources, who are directly involved in the pilot.
This shows there is little organic demand to use the e-rupee, said a third source, a banker involved in the project.

Iraq is seeking to build its military system by purchasing new weapons from several countries, including European and Asian countries, as well as Russia, especially in the field of air defense and radars, while specialists indicate that the number of combat aircraft is insufficient to secure the airspace and carry out strikes against hostile targets, especially since the country It owns large areas of desert.
Iraq began sending technical and military committees to several countries to contract for the purchase of anti-aircraft weapons, which indicates a desire to complete the construction of its air system to enhance the security of its skies and prepare for a future American withdrawal, as Iraq currently possesses 95 combat aircraft of American, Russian, South Korean and Czech origins.

Prime Minister Muhammad Shiaa Al-Sudani announced the allocation of five trillion dinars ($3.826 billion), including three trillion ($2.295 billion) in the current year’s budget to enhance weapons capabilities and develop the armament of Iraqi forces of all types.
Although Iraq has a number of combat aircraft fleets, it is still considering purchasing new aircraft, especially the French “Rafale” aircraft, as it seems that Iraq is interested in developing its air capabilities and strengthening its military relations with the French side through signing a contract with the “Thales” company. France in July 2022 to provide it with advanced “long-range” GM400 radars as part of a federal government effort to strengthen Iraq’s air sovereignty, a number of which were installed in parts of Iraq.
Iraq seeks to strengthen this relationship with new arms contracts, including the purchase of advanced Rafale aircraft to enhance its military capabilities and impose its sovereignty.
Iraq currently has 95 combat aircraft of American, Russian, South Korean and Czech origin, all of which were contracted by the country after 2003. However, according to specialists, this number is insufficient to secure Iraqi airspace and carry out strikes against hostile targets, especially since the country owns large areas of desert.
Technical and military committees
According to a statement by the spokesman for the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, Major General Yahya Rasool, last March, Iraq is determined to complete the radar system in general, while announcing the sending of technical and military committees to several countries to contract for the purchase of anti-aircraft weapons, which indicates Iraq’s desire to complete the construction of its system.
Air Force forces to enhance the security of its skies and prepare for a future American withdrawal. However, experts in the security and military field believe that the needs of the security forces are vast and require huge sums of money, and that the amounts allocated are not sufficient.
Rafale aircraft
Security and strategic specialist Maan Al-Jubouri explains that the budget set by the Iraqi government is insufficient and does not meet Iraq's military needs, while he stressed the need to pay attention to purchasing French "Rafale" aircraft.
Al-Jubouri said, “Iraq’s need is very great, especially with regard to air defenses, as it is not possible to control and protect the skies of any country without having high capabilities for air defenses that remove the danger of attacks on the country,” noting that air defenses are concerned with protecting land and aircraft.
The military that carries out its military tasks, whether fighting terrorism or defending borders. He stressed the need for Iraq to have a capable air defense that includes a surface-to-air missile system and a radar system, which will therefore form a strategic cover for Iraqi territory, stressing the need for Iraq to acquire large, modern radars that cover a wide geographical area of Iraqi skies, thus monitoring any movement from any region inside Iraq. .
Radars and drones
He pointed out the importance of radars to completely cover Iraqi space in all aspects, and to prevent any breach that the enemy might exploit, and this is one of the important foundations. He called for bringing drones and advanced technological equipment such as night goggles, surveillance towers, and thermal cameras, as well as electronic devices, and these are the priorities of any force. Military.
He called for contracting modern aircraft such as the Rafale, considering that it is a capable aircraft with very high specifications, and therefore we can invest in its potential, explaining that concluding such a deal will strengthen the Iraqi air force and the operations carried out by the armed forces, especially since Iraq has pilots.
They have high experience and must be trained on these aircraft, as is the case with the F-16 aircraft. This is important in diversifying the sources of armament and not relying on one country. link

Mnt Goat ...I was told [by CBI contact] that NO insider, backdoor, international trading or otherwise was being conducted on the Iraqi dinar. If you hear rumors of otherwise it is all lies. Investors can come to the ISX and purchased Iraqi dinar at the “official CBI rate”. There is not yet the availability to trade on FOREX or any of the other foreign exchanges... Investors really can’t do much with the dinar at this time as in the west there are still US Treasury sanctions effective on the currency...

How Long Will The US Dollar Remain Global Currency According To HSBC Predicts?
Geopolitical Analyst: 6-25-2024
It is certainly not new the Brics has been on the trail of drifting from the dollar and this seems to be getting even fiercer with more and more countries being encouraged to trade in local currencies especially after their last summit which took place last August in Johannesburg, South Africa.
Things might get even intense when it comes to de-dollarization as the Bloc prepares for its 16th summit this October in Russia's city of Kezan with over 93 countries set to be in attendance.
All might not be clear yet what the agenda for its coming summit is but with the moves the bloc has been taking since 2024 following the groups expansion from 5 to 10 members and more anticipation for accelerated expansion, it is certain the group isn't going slow on its agenda of drifting from the dollar and creation of its own currency.
Just coming in, leading global bank HSBC has predicted the future of the US dollar forecasting how long the currency can stay as the world’s reserve.
The prediction comes at a time when the Brics alliance is looking to dethrone the US dollar from the global reserve currency status.
