This is what [we] have been concerned about for a long time… Article: “US threatened to block Iraq from its Federal Reserve deposits over Iran-aligned politicians” …Under the agreement that has been in place since 2003…Iraq stores the proceeds from its oil export sales in the US…Everything goes through the Federal Reserve Bank. They have about $112 billion in this account. The US is saying if you don’t do as we are requesting you to do, as far as dismantling militants and not allowing Iran backed militants to be in parliament or be in key positions, the US is treating to withhold oil sales…It’s all over the news especially in the Middle East. The Trump administration has had no qualms about playing this card and showing up at the table with this threat. :Sandy Ingram
