wmawhite says():Ramadan is celebrated inside of Iraq, as with all Muslin countries. A change in the value of the IQD takes place outside of Iraq. When that happens the value of the IQD inside of Iraq is still 1 IQD = 1 IQD……..no change. IMO, Ramadan has nothing to do with the eventual change in the IQD.

wmawhite says to diane1():However, the IMF made those statements back in November 2015 for a reason………….and they followed up those statements with the Technical Letter of Intent, signed by the IMF, CBI and MoF.
Also, we have seen week after week of progress by the CBI even while the circus events were happening in parliament. This could happen within the next couple of weeks, or moths. Eitherway though, it will happen.
