TNT: Tishwash: What is the impact of the value of the euro with the dollar on the Iraqi economy
Today, Tuesday, economic expert Qusai Safwan confirmed that the value of the euro .with the dollar has a positive impact on the value of the Iraqi dinar Safwan said in a statement to (Baghdad Today), “The reason for the decline in the value of the euro is as a result of Russia’s cutting off oil and gas supplies from the European Union and the disruption of growth rates in the union, which led to making “.the dollar a safe haven to convert the euro into dollars at this stage
He added, “The impact of the depreciation of the euro is positive on the Iraqi economy as a result of Iraq’s possession of dollar reserves, which will lead to the “.growth of the country’s economy Safwan added, “It is possible that there will be a diversification of the Central Bank’s reserves towards buying gold or buying international currencies such as the euro or “.the yen, in order to avoid any damage to the US dollar in the future
He pointed out that “the volume of European production will be affected by the decline in Russian gas, and inflation rates will rise in Europe to compensate for the “.decrease in the value of the euro And he indicated that “the Iraqi economy will profit as a result of purchases in dollars, which will lead to an increase in government purchases with the rise in the “.value of the dollar
Safwan pointed out that “it is possible that the strength of the Iraqi dinar will “.increase because it is linked to a fixed price with the dollar link

Yada: I hate to say it. There are some out saying this event needed some type of world event to distract the masses,,,,(I dont believe though) but the inflation factor hitting the continents would see the perfect time to get a lifeline in the increased dinar value. The countries already did currency swaps so all reserve accounts are ready……..They are primed to go and the launching may be seen when they open up from their recess in the next few hours. The variables from the EFSL will be activated and the wheel of progress begins
Dutchie: Yada or Charlie what is the CG please?
Yada: some call it a “caretaker government” but articles recently out indicate it doesn’t exist, just a consensual thing to allow the incoming government to handle new changes. Their constitution indicates they are in an emergency government because they failed to sit a government within the time limits
