Iran wants Al-Kazemi to remain in his position... and the leaders of the Coordination Framework meet with him in Tehran in the presence of Ismail Qaani!

29th June, 2022

Press sources learned, from an informed Iranian source, that representatives of the Iraqi Shiite "coordinating framework" forces and other Iraqi parties held a meeting with Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kazemi, during his visit to Tehran, to discuss the political crisis in the country.

The source said that in light of the results of this meeting, the commander of the “Quds Force,” General Ismail Qaani, held a series of meetings with Iraqi parties, the last of which was a meeting with representatives of the “framework” in Tehran yesterday, during which he informed them that his country supports Al-Kazemi’s stay for a second term.

He added that Qaani stressed, in the meeting, that Al-Kazemi is not Tehran's preferred option, but his good relations with Iran, Saudi Arabia, the United States and Turkey make him "the best possible", especially since the region may be heading for calm, and Al-Kazemi may play a role in this context.

According to the source, Qaani asked to try to satisfy Muqtada al-Sadr and his movement in any way possible. LINK

Samson:  Opening large corruption files that result in the arrest of dozens of employees in Diyala

29th June, 2022

An informed source said, on Wednesday, the arrest of 17 employees on corruption charges in Diyala Governorate, indicating that the judicial authorities have opened 10 major corruption files during the past days that will result in new arrests.

The source said in an interview with (Baghdad Today), that "investigations about 10 files of suspicion of financial and administrative corruption in three government departments in Diyala led to the arrest of 17 employees within a week according to official arrest warrants issued by the judiciary".

The source added, "Most of them were released on bail pending the completion of investigations," noting that most of the files were submitted by MPs to Integrity, which initiated investigations". 

He pointed out that "the coming weeks are fraught with surprises, especially since the volume of files seized carrying financial and administrative violations may be a surprise of a heavy caliber," stressing that "the recent arrests are the highest in recent years".  LINK

Sir:  IMO - This is the best article that has come out in 2022! 

Somebody gave the green light ( Kazemi ) for the above. Meaning some ( most ) higher up rats are going to be paid a visit ( sleepless night for the next week or so).

IMO-the next Iraqi government is going to be very limited in size ( micro small) and this will end the corruption that we see today and from many years past. There have been many articles about the arrest of little rats, now it’s time for the big rats.

We know that in December 2020 that the budget (+ new rate) for 21~23 was set. Frank stated that they are working with a second set of books, why ? To maybe keep the rats from stealing the people of Iraq’s money more than the have been?

It’s pretty obvious that this is happening to governments around the world, stepping down, Israel being the latest! So be just a little more patient, the hands of the rats must be removed from the cookie jars before we see publicly the rate change.

Kazemi is in total control, in fact I believe that behind closed doors he has been dancing a lot, every time these rats open their mouths. He is showing the people of Iraq just how incompetent and corrupt these rats are.

They sure are making Kazemi’s job a whole lot easier. Just food for thought, most of the articles are smoke and mirrors IMO of course.

Samson:  "In a quiet fire" .. a surprising and important statement by the Prime Minister's advisor about changing the dollar exchange

06/27/2022 22:27:19

The financial advisor to the Prime Minister, Mazhar Muhammad Salih, surprised the Iraqis about the possibility of changing and reducing the exchange rate of the dollar against the dinar.

Saleh said on the program “Al-Mastra” broadcast by Al-Furat satellite channel this evening: “We need to cook on a quiet fire and monitor prices until the end of 2022, oil prices and foreign reserves,” stressing that “a change in the exchange rate is possible, but it requires patience and careful study

He pointed out that "there are fixed facts on the ground. The exchange rate of the dinar to the dollar follows stability, and it is not arbitrary, but rather a contract between the Central Bank of Iraq and the Ministry of Finance, because the foreign currency offer comes from the Ministry of Finance 100%, which is the only source for it in the country

Saleh added, "But the Central Bank deals in dollars to maintain cash reserves and prevent inflation, and the modern Iraqi financial history is witnessing cooperation in determining the dollar exchange rate between the Central Bank and the Ministry of Finance. He stressed that "the agreement with the Ministry of Finance to set the dollar exchange rate for a period of three years, but changing it became a surprise, and it is within the shock policy, and there are limits to the change in the dollar exchange rate, and it is not a political or populist issue

He noted that "the first limit according to commodity prices and the market, and at that time the central bank will defend the stability of prices according to the reserve, which is the highest in its history now, and we have an encouraging surplus for the end of the year from 8 to 10 percent." He stressed, "If prices and financial policies fail to defend the livelihood of the poor and social protection salaries, the Central Bank will intervene by raising the purchasing power of the Central Bank through its foreign reserves

It is logical that the fiscal policy has a package to defend the livelihood, relieve the poor classes and social welfare, and compensate farmers for the differentials in grain prices, and the government maintains fuel prices and government services fixed, and this stability is a kind of support that rose to 15% of GDP

And regarding changing the dollar exchange rate, the Prime Minister’s advisor said: “Everything is possible, but we need patience in changing the dollar exchange rate in the event of high prices and the fiscal policy is unable and monetary policy is able to cover the dinar,” noting that “the Food Security Law if it cannot secure the requirements.” In the event of an increase in prices, the central bank will intervene to preserve the strength of the dinar against the dollar   LINK

***************

 Tivon:  This is either a wait and see. Or a initiate and hope.

Inflation seems to be less of an issue. But the volatility in the markets is what appears to be the deciding factor as to how long it take to feel comfortable with reinstating the Dinar.

I guess they want to avoid shocking the markets. Not sure how they plan to get around the concerning issue at the expense of the citizens if they forecast any issues that cannot be offset appropriately or proficient enough where the CBI is forced to intervene.

But they still allude to going through with it in spite of and will just adjust on the fly as the rare gradually increase from 1:1. So the problem may not necessarily be coming out at equal value but maintaining it.

Ok, understood. Because we all know BUNA will be launching in the 2nd half of this year which starts on July 1st. Iraq has fail safes in place for marginal increases/decreases in the local and international prices based on their policies and the contracts that are in place which I said yesterday is the deciding factor of everything and not necessarily the rate alone.

As it means nothing if you don't have precautionary measures in place for everyone who thinks merely not having a budget was always the issue. Then again maybe Al-Kazemi knows something that Mazhar doesn't if he feels confident that this can be done at the earliest session. IMO

***************

Pete2001:  Tivon, greatly appreciate your perspective and understanding on all things, along w Frank, MM and Petra's. Question, would this not be a headfake on timing..I mean they have spent over a year getting financial house in order...domestically and internationally w WB, IMF, etc. I mean cook all you want but the meat is gonna be well done to burnt if this takes to the end of year and is counter to putting all these new ATM's etc.

  “We need to cook on a quiet fire and monitor prices until the end of 2022, oil prices and foreign reserves,” stressing that “a change in the exchange rate is possible, but it requires patience and careful study"

** *************

Tivon:  I can see why the Iraqi citizens were surprised by this statement given the reasons listed as to the preparations that have been progressing with all of the different sectors of departments, institutions, and ministries for the past few years or more. Especially the reserves.

I mean they just announced an 35% increase. A spike in prices should not be of that much concern if you have more than enough in hard currency to protect against it.

 I don't know if this is Iraq getting cold feet or just nervous. Because he says they have a fiscal policy to defend the Dinar and can protect the citizens. Ok, let's eat if that's the case. Because the Iraqis are at the table with a fork & knife in hand and they smell a well cooked meal on the stove.

What difference would the end of the year make if your concerns are based on a toss up that the markets will not telegraph or screen beforehand for you to feel confident enough to reinstate. It's not a blind item. They have the tool sets to smooth out the rough areas once the rate set sails into the open sea.

What went on in the past five days where this aspect was not addressed that would make Al-Kazemi recommend at the earliest session to reduce the Dollar rate that made Mazhar Muhammad Saleh uncomfortable and state this today?

Were they were in two separate board meetings? Because I wouldn't have suggested to 100 Deputies to sign on to anything if every area of concern was not discussed. IMO

Pattycakes77:  All we have to do at this point is wait and see. July 1st is significant regarding BUNA, policies and contracts.

I just do not see Iraq kicking the can down the road much further with all the wonderful news that came out in the past weeks leading up to now. Why the ATMs if things are not imminent ? Things just wouldn't  make sense.

My hope is in the days to follow leading up into the weekend. God be with us all and we all must pray to break any evil powers that maybe holding the Iraq dinar hostage. I believe also there is a demonic spirit holding it up because it knows God's will, will be done.

Samson:  Al-Kazemi: We have obligations that we must fulfill, and mistrust with others is not in our policy

06/28/2022 17:34:42

The most important statement of the Prime Minister, Mustafa Al-Kazemi, during the cabinet session held today, Tuesday

🔵 This government came in exceptional circumstances, and it worked and is still working in exceptional circumstances, and despite all these challenges, it succeeded in overcoming many difficulties... The challenges were not easy, and the government's slogan from the first day was that it is a government of word and deed.

🔵 We focused on the practical aspect of citizens' needs, we succeeded in some of them, while others need more time to address them.

🔵 A while ago, we laid the foundation stone for a project to build 1,000 schools in all governorates of Iraq, which is the first meal within the Iraqi-Chinese framework agreement.

🔵 This agreement was obtained with great confusion by some parties that tried to promote the government's lack of seriousness in implementing the agreement or did not want to implement it. 

🔵 The government is the one who implemented the agreement, and we started with the project of 1,000 schools out of a total of 8,000 schools across all governorates, in the form of stages. 

🔵 Unfortunately, we sometimes hear campaigns in some media and social media platforms, the aim of which is to break the resolve of the government’s work, and our response is silence, we do not want to enter into political rivalries for the sake of Iraq and the Iraqis, and we focus on work to move towards the future. 

🔵 The House of Representatives voted on the law on emergency support for food security, and we must work to implement it with full force in order to serve the people, and I would like to remind that the law is not a budget, but came because we are going through an exceptional circumstance, and we, as a caretaker government, have no right to enact laws, so we resorted to the Food Security Law which requires us to work very hard to implement it for the benefit of the Iraqis.

🔵 We need all political parties to cooperate with us to implement the Food Security Law, with our need for a supervisory role as well, which must take place within the public interest, and not for pressure or personal purposes, or within agendas to weaken the government.

🔵 The government is working at the end of its session, and we expect the political parties to work with full force to form a government that represents the aspirations of the Iraqi people, so that it can present a vision to address these challenges.

🔵 This government remains in action until the last moment until its tasks are handed over to the next government, and for this I remind the political elites of the importance of expediting the formation of a government that does its duty, and at the same time we will work for the last moment to follow up on all the details.

 🔵 We have commitments that we must implement and continue with, and despite the many internal challenges, we have succeeded in the policy of external balance, and this was a major goal from the first moment in working to restore our relations with neighboring countries and friendly countries and with our brothers.

🔵 Praise be to God, we put Iraq's interest in the first place, and this balance stems from the interest of Iraq, the Iraqi people, and we will continue with this policy, and we will not go to any axis at the expense of another axis.

🔵 We put an equal distance with everyone in order to bring to Iraq investments and support, in order to compensate for the failures, frustrations and absurd wars that have left their repercussions on the Iraqi people.

🔵 What is required is to rebuild our relations on the basis of the Iraqi interest and on the basis of good faith with all partners. As for the policy of fear, isolation and mistrust with others, it is not in our policy.

🔵 We think well of everyone so that we can reconcile with ourselves and others, and liberate us from the absurd policies that took Iraq in the past to semi-isolationist or escalatory policies with neighboring countries, and this will be part of the past.

🔵 About my recent visit to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the Islamic Republic of Iran, the visit to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia was very good, in which we discussed common issues, Saudi investments in Iraq and future prospects, and we talked about the electrical connection and many projects that benefit Iraqis, and the importance of the region being stable and calm and for Iraq to lead His role in humidifying the atmosphere for the interest of Iraq and the region.

🔵 We talked about global challenges due to the war in Ukraine and its repercussions on food security, and how to cooperate in order to provide the needs of our peoples to provide this security.

🔵 During our visit to the Islamic Republic of Iran, we spoke about the same points, and about joint files, as well as working on the issue of energy and water.

🔵 The Brotherhood in Iran has expressed its willingness to send the Minister of Energy to Baghdad to talk about the issue of water and electric energy and solve all problems. 

🔵 We need to work hard to overcome the challenges that the region is going through and that affected everyone and Iraq in the first place, and in particular the issue of climate change, and for this I ask the competent ministers to pay attention to this aspect regarding water and climatic changes that affect agriculture and the lives of citizens.

🔵 We must remember that these relations and this balance prove to the world and to the Iraqis that Iraq has a great depth in history, and its role and position are very important in helping to build relations that serve the interest of our people.

🔵 Iraq works and seeks to be part of the region and its stability, and that we cooperate with all countries in order to avoid the repercussions of the war in Ukraine in terms of food and energy security. 

🔵 Our work will continue until the last moment of the life of this government, until the formation of a new government, we must work day and night to overcome all obstacles and challenges.

MilitiaMan, Frank26, Petra and more Friday Night...6-24-2022

KTFA: 

MilitiaMan:  The special session yesterday had a couple things going on. One was the vote for the HOR and the other apparently per FA # 1622 (see article below)  the exchange rate was in the mix. 100 hands were raised for the exchange rate change is a nice show of hands.. imo

That said, there is support that you have noticed and refer to about the data with Egmont Group. That meeting having by some pooh pooh-ing it might take another think on the matter.

The group is renown for it's Financial Intelligence Unit. They are all about having security with respect to finance, anti money laundering and anti terrorism financing.

 With Iraq gearing to go international they'll need all the support and intelligence they can get and this group is global. They will be instrumental in investigating money laundering, etc. Think about it.. Iraq is about to change their exchange rate and the currency would be ripe for money laundering especially if the value is strong, as expected to be.

"The Egmont Group of Financial Intelligence Units is an international organization that facilitates cooperation and intelligence sharing between national financial intelligence units to investigate and prevent money laundering and terrorist financing."

MilitiaMan: The amount of items that are ready to go for the exchange rate is quite significant now to date. They gathered over 100 signatures to reduce the Exchange rate of the dollar.

The links below show that the electronic side of things is all hooked up and ready to go. So with have the legal and necessary powers to facilitate the laws with Kahdimi, yesterday show us just how ready we are now.

The Supreme Judicial Council is the authority that clarified  the present government in place has the ability to keep the country running through whatever necessary power's needed. I would love to know exactly what amendments they had in the additional paragraph noted in the report.

May it be the amendment for the exchange rate change? 

Could it have been about the forming of the government?

Could that be about amendments to the constitution with respect to the 2/3rds vote?

Not sure just yet, but with the emergency meeting yesterday and the Emergency Food Security Law have seasoned for 15 days + now, it surely could have implication's that what ever is in it, it was welcomed by over 100 deputies.

Gazzette day is going to be either tomorrow and or next Wednesday. For accounting purposes they may take it to the wire.. Don't know.. But, it sure is not long to find out.. lol  The links provided are not theories. They are imo they are facts on accomplishments completed or was carried out. ~ MM

PETRA:   Good stuff MM. Clear and factual as always.  I would like to add a few dots to the logic equation as to status:  

1. Al-Zamili stated weeks ago prior to the passing of the ESFL that upon passing of the law that the ministries would "immediately" be funded to begin their efforts of the WP's.  Well, yesterday was that 15th day as MM stated above.....tick tock!

2. Al-Alawai the Finance Minister has been pumping his chest for the last week plus stating that basically the reforms are ready to go and his ministry is ready to engage.  Hello CBI....Tick Tock!!!

3. Today, in MM's post above and in Frank's FA # 1622 is not only the request of Kathemi to change the rate but also, along with it are the signatures of 100 or so Parliament Deputies agreeing with the move.  Hey CBI....Tick Tock

Therefore, with all the studies we have been doing, the international digital framework is clearly ready to go, and now we have additional oversite to insure the safety and security....OF THE RATE is now before us on a myriad of levels to engage the new Iraq!! 

So, as of now, and IMO what are we waiting for?   Hello CBI....Tick Tock!!!   The ESFL is now 'LAW!'  You have heard now from Kathemi, Allawi, and 100+ ministers of Parliament.... Time to move CBI....or get a new watch!!!  ALL IMO  PETRA

Samson:  Britain asks its citizens to dispose of $17.7 billion in banknotes

24th June, 2022

The Bank of England said people who own 14.5 billion pounds ($17.7 billion) of old notes have just 100 days to spend or deposit them before they become worthless. And the British Central Bank indicated in a statement published on its website, that about 477 million of the remaining banknotes in Britain, printed on paper, are still in the hands of the public, but they will stop appearing. 

According to what was published on its website, the bank will withdraw through legal tender the two denominations of 20 and 50 pounds after September 30, 2022. After this date, the notes of both denominations will be of no value. The Bank of England urged anyone who still has this category of banknote to use it or deposit it with its bank or any post office within the next 100 days. 

The bank added, "It's also been one year since we released the 50 pound ($61.2) polymer note featuring Alan Turing, on his 109th birthday. With all five pound ($6.1) denominations printed. and ten pounds ($12.2), 20 pounds ($24.4) and 50 pounds ($61.2) of polymer (an environmentally friendly plastic)." 

The bank continued, “While the majority of the 20 and 50 pound notes in circulation have been replaced by new polymer issues, there are still over six billion pounds ($7.3 billion) of notes worth 20 pounds, and there are more than eight billion pounds worth of notes. £9.8 billion in £50 banknotes with the image of the economist Adam Smith on it, more than 300 million £20 banknotes and 160 million £50 notes with a picture of engineer Bolton Watt on it

Speaking ahead of time, Bank of England Chief Accountant Sarah John said, “Changing our banknotes from paper to polymer in recent years has been an important development, as it makes them more difficult to counterfeit and means they are more permanent.

The majority of old paper notes have now been taken out. From circulation, but a large number of them are still in the economy, so we ask everyone to check if you have any at home. For the next 100 days, they can still be used or deposited into your bank in the normal way." 

The £20 note began to be withdrawn from circulation on February 20, 2020, when the polymer entered circulation, while the £50 note began to be withdrawn on June 23, 2021

The £20 and £50 notes issued by Clydesdale Bank, Royal Bank of Scotland and Bank of Scotland will be withdrawn after September 30, 2022, and the issuing authorities have advised retailers and the public to spend or deposit these notes by that date as well. The bank notes issued by the Bank of Ireland (UK) will also be withdrawn  LINK
