Chattels Iraq and China to sign massive financing deal
Imminent agreement will provide some $10 billion in credit for companies to invest, super-charging China's involvement in the Iraqi economy.
chattels BAGHDAD - Iraq and China are set to finalize a major bilateral agreement that would give investors access to roughly $10 billion worth of financing.
The deal is likely to accelerate the pace and widen the breadth of China's involvement in the Iraqi economy, including the energy sector, and provide money needed for reconstruction and infrastructure projects that cannot be funded by the Iraqi budget alone.

chattels Baghdad hikes monthly payment to Kurdistan
With an infusion of federal money under the newly enacted 2019 budget, the KRG is lifting austerity measures and returning to the days of financial dependence on Baghdad.
chattels ERBIL - Iraq's federal government has roughly doubled the amount of its monthly transfer to the autonomous Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) — a sign of a deepening relationship of interdependence between Baghdad and Erbil.
Future payments are not guaranteed to remain so high. The 2019 budget law calls on the KRG to contribute 250,000 barrels per day (bpd) of its independently managed oil production to the federal government's exports - and if it fails to do so, there could be financial penalties.

chattels Court signals skepticism in Baghdad-KRG oil case Issuing yet another delay in the seven-year-old proceedings, Iraq's chief justice appeared to question whether there is still an active constitutional dispute.
chattels Iraq's Federal Supreme Court has again delayed making a ruling in a much-anticipated case challenging the autonomous Kurdistan Regional Government’s (KRG) independent oil policy.
In a session Wednesday, Chief Justice Medhat al-Mahmoud posed a series of questions to lawyers on both sides, which appeared to suggest he might be skeptical of the extent to which there are constitutional questions that need adjudicating, given that the key disagreements driving the case are currently being addressed in the political arena.

chattels " We have also participated in the formation of the government in Baghdad and we are active in the government. We see a willingness on the part of the present Prime Minister Adel Abdul Mahdi to be more approachable. But the fact remains that the system in Iraq does not revolve around a single individual. There are many other actors and elements. But I can say wholeheartedly that the relationship that we currently enjoy with Baghdad is far better than it used to be."
chattels " ............ the budget issue became highly politicized and kind of a stumbling block for the [Iraqi] prime minister to get hung up on 17% or any percent for that matter. That’s why we negotiated something that could work for both sides. We had to be pragmatic. This is a cooling down period with Baghdad.
But that is not to say all of our problems are resolved. This is a temporary formula that allows us to address the problem of unpaid salaries of government employees. The salary issue has at least been fixed. We will have a whole year to discuss all the details of the budget before the draft national budget for the next fiscal year is drawn up. We want to avoid quarrels."

Monetary policy aimed at emptying Iraqi State Treasury is part of Iraq's riches dissipation scheme for continuing cash shortage of hard currency for the Iraqi dinar is not high compared to the dollar. Because obviously the more hard currency reserves to the State Treasury as the local currency value rises.
For this action the Central Bank years ago over the sale of the dollar coin auction is known for smuggled abroad by the politically powerful thieves and the bulk of it goes to Iranian banks to increase Iranian hard currency reserves to the Iranian currency value rises and keeps the deficit In the Iraqi budget so there is a big difference between the dinar and the Iranian currency that there is variation in the value of currencies that are based on trade because in many cases of buying and selling in the twins in the southern governorates and especially Basra. ..
But after the impact of the sanctions has intensified America on Iran that led to a massive decline in Iranian twins are causing it to decrease the balance of trade between the two countries and the decline of religious tourism has become so deep and large contrast gap between Iraqi and Iranian currency, Rowhani comes from.

ERBIL, Kurdistan Region — US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo defended his country's foreign policy in Iraq, urging the Senate quickly to confirm the administration’s pick for ambassador, Matthew Tueller.
"I think we’re making progress on developing a strong, independent, sovereign Iraq, but there is no doubt Iran has its eyes set on taking control of that country," he said on Fox TV.
Pompeo rebutted a question on senate criticism regarding the lack of US diplomatic policy in Iraq.
"I disagree fundamentally. I know precisely what the diplomatic game is there, and if the Senate will confirm my ambassador, we’ll step it up even more," he added.
Tueller was nominated in November, but is yet to be nominated by the Senate. He testified before the Foreign Relations Committee on March 6. The hearings are often a test of the president and secretary of state's foreign policy.
Pompeo urged for continued US support in Iraq without Iranian interference.
"I don’t think that’s good for the Iraqi people, I know it’s not good for the United States of America, and we’re going to continue to do the CT [counter-terrorism] fight there and stand up an Iraqi Government that’s free and less involved with what’s going on in Iran," he added.
David Peyman, the deputy assistant secretary of state for counter threat finance and sanctions, cautioned last week that more sanctions against Iran are coming.
Iranian Ayatollah Emami Kashani, a member of the Assembly of Experts, claimed that the United States has been defeated in Iraq and Syria.
larrykn "When the enemy uses his maximum facilities to press the country in sanctions, we must also have the facilities and we should find ways to cope with these problems," he added.
Pompeo will make a three-day visit to Kuwait, Israel, and Lebanon this week.
It follows a visit last week by Iranian President Hassan Rouhani to Iraq.
