MilitiaMan: Looks like Iraq has been given the GREEN LIGHT!! (See article below) I like the use of the word expressed..

It means to me they have a mechanism that has an expression to it. As in an international way of expressing their mechanism or exchange rate to the world that is in the white paper recently.

They'll need it as it is the CORNER STONE or foundation of the reconstruction effort and the overall country's reforms going forward.. Imo..

Game is about to kick off. imo ~ MM

Samson: To the executive branch to the Central Bank of Iraq

17th February, 2021

Proposing the need to amend the exchange rate of the Iraqi dinar towards the US dollar.

1. The devaluation of the national currency of the Iraqi dinar in favor of the US dollar and making the exchange rate of the dinar against the US dollar at 1450 is an unfair, ill-considered and urgent exchange rate, which is against the interest of the Iraqi people and economy, and that the first beneficiaries of that are regional and international countries and Arab and foreign companies and the ruling political elite

DeepWoodz: Imo...We all know the rate change is coming. We have all been reading the articles, although I’m skimming them less and less, and we’ve all settled our minds on the budget.

I suggest that we focus on all the other things going on because we are looking through a stained glass. We have biased opinions that are only concerned with the rate.

No one can answer this, what are they waiting on? What step is left?

Frank, Walkingstick, and teams have helped us understand the things that have taken place but cannot tell the future. Nor will they even try for good reason, only God knows the future.

Of course the budget is an indicator of things to come, speculation about our speculative investment.

Ross: So the obvious question is how many months or years will that take? I don't see discussions of a cashless society in American and I suspect a lot of people would be resistant and there would IMO have to be a major "education" push to overcome resistance.

Also why spend the money to produce the NSCN's and the bank training if everything is going to be digital ?

Clearly these things are above my pay schedule and understanding. My simplistic thought that the White Papers and the 2021 Budget would produce a new rate that would benefit the populace seems misplaced. Very discouraged.
