Al-Kazemi’s advisor comments on a Shafak News report on “digital currencies” and warns against one of them
Adviser to the Iraqi Prime Minister for Financial Affairs Mazhar Muhammad Salih revealed on Sunday that there are two types of “digital currencies” globally, referring to the “official” of one of them.
Shafak News Agency, through its report, published yesterday, Saturday, provided details of a new “digital currency” that entered the regions of western Iraq, the price of which reached more than 24,000 thousand US dollars, amid an unprecedented turnout of the population.
Saleh told Shafaq News Agency, “There are two types of digital currencies, one of which is called cryptocurrency,” noting that “it is a system outside the control of central banks and financial markets, and it is traded through its subscribers and founders, so that there is a commodity exchange and coverage of transactions outside the control of international financial supervision. “.
He added that these cryptocurrencies are considered “i*****l, in some countries because of economic freedom, as some accept them and others reject them.”
He warned that “these currencies are closer to hierarchical companies that give big money, and then collapse after that because they do not have an economic basis, but rather are financial speculation,” explaining that “it is like a bubble and its risks are many.”
Regarding “official digital currencies”, Saleh stated, “The other world is heading to global digital currencies issued by global central banks, which are sought to be established by 3 global central banks, including the European Central Bank (the euro), the United States (the dollar) and China for its currency (the yuan).”

He pointed out that “these digital currencies are important because they will reduce the cost of transactions because the free cash in circulation has a problem such as movement and storage, and therefore this cash will be a number controlled by the central bank.”
He added, “This type of digital currency will have a high level of transparency, as the central bank will be able to know the dinar that comes out from where, and goes to where, meaning that it has the ability to monitor financial behavior up to a penny.”
He pointed out that “these digital currencies at the same time will lose the privacy of transactions with their secrets, which is a kind of domination and human control, which is the closest thing known to the globalization of the digital financial system.”
He stressed that “this globalization is considered dangerous because it will control not only companies, but even the individual, and it is part of the subjugation of the countries that deal in this currency, and the movements of people will all be known despite its transparency, but it is mandatory, as it is digital to preserve people’s rights, except It will be under financial supervision by central banks.”
Shafaq News Agency, earlier, investigated a “digital currency” that entered Anbar Governorate, western Iraq, and spread widely amid the people’s desire to invest in it, amid religious fatwas that declared its sanctity and warnings from specialists. link

After lifting immunity, former MPs leave Iraq
Media reports indicated that former MPs have left Iraq for some neighboring countries, Europe or America for fear of being prosecuted after the immunities were lifted. A deputy in the dissolved parliament.
A report by Al-Araby Al-Jadeed website, which was monitored by (Iraq Today), stated that “the dissolution of the Iraqi parliament on the seventh of this October resulted in the lifting of the parliamentary immunity guaranteed by the constitution for hundreds of deputies, whose results showed the last legislative e*******s that were held on October 10, losing more than From 70 percent of them to their seats, which means that the ministerial committee charged with prosecuting c********n files by the caretaker government headed by Mustafa Al-Kazemi, will be able to investigate any of them.
The government talk before the e*******s, invoking the reason for the immunity granted to many of these representatives, was that it was impossible to investigate them, and the Iraqi constitution grants parliamentary immunity to members of the House of Representatives that lasts throughout the duration of the parliamentary session, which amounts to four years, and the judiciary is not entitled, according to this immunity, to prosecute deputies during this period, with the exception of C****s related to the flagrante delicto.
Officials in Baghdad spoke on more than one occasion about the presence of more than 40 deputies whose names were mentioned in financial c********n cases after investigating officials who were arrested, most notably the Director of Public Retirement Ahmed Al-Saadi, the director of the “Key Card” company (smart card), Bahaa Al-Maamouri, and the head of The solution party, former head of the Red Crescent Society, Jamal Karbouli.
A government official in Baghdad, who asked not to be named, revealed that there are judicial files against at least 12 deputies in the dissolved parliament, including confessions of current detainees on c********n charges, who said that they provided deputies with sums of money in exchange for facilitating investment work, and others to stop legal procedures against them. According to the source, a deputy is also involved in blackmailing an official in exchange for not raising files related to him that involve c****s against public money, stressing that the special committee to follow up on c********n files headed by General Ahmed Abu Ragheef is expected to initiate recruitment procedures and arrest a number of them soon. The official indicated that the demise of the immunity of members of the dissolved parliament will facilitate raising the files of some former MPs, whether in the Integrity Commission, or in the Commission to investigate c********n cases, indicating that the follow-up of this file will be carried out in coordination with the judicial authority, which will have the final say in that by accreditation. on the available evidence.
Other sources confirmed that some of the deputies raised about c********n charges and issues left Iraq after announcing the results of the e*******s and making sure that their names were not among the winners, and that some of them left through Baghdad airport to various destinations, including Lebanon, Jordan, Iran, Turkey, and European countries, without being stopped. by the authorities.
Commenting on this, the independent candidate who won membership in the new parliament, Basem Khashan, explained that the end of the parliament’s immunity after the dissolution of parliament on October 7 gave the judiciary an opportunity to try members of the dissolved parliament, and currently there are fears that some of the a*****d may escape outside the country, and about the possibility of the parties’ defense And the powerful forces of former MPs a*****d of c********n, Khashan wondered: “We are waiting for the parties’ position on that, so will they stick to them?”
In turn, former parliament member Adnan Al-Danbous confirmed that “people who have rumors and c********n cases are currently leaving the country, unfortunately,” explaining, “only the judiciary can prevent the a*****d from traveling.”
Danbos pointed out that “immunity has been lifted from the former parliamentarians, and they are now subject to the laws in force, and any case can be submitted to the courts for resolution,” considering that public opinion “can be a pressing factor and an aid to taking legal measures against them,” noting that quotas ” It caused covering up many files related to MPs and former officials.”
Officials estimate the value of the money wasted due to c********n since the US occupation of Iraq in 2003 at hundreds of billions, including more than 300 billion dollars smuggled out of the country. The Commission for Investigation into C********n and Major C****s Issues, which Al-Kazemi formed, also arrested officials and politicians on c********n charges, some of whom were subjected to judicial rulings.
Al-Kazemi had formed at the end of August 2020, a higher committee, with wide powers, headed by Lieutenant-General Ahmed Abu Ragheef, to open c********n files, investigate officials, and put a special force affiliated with the Counter-T*******m Service under the command of the committee, which succeeded in arresting a number of officials and politicians.
And last April, Iraqi officials confirmed that investigations conducted by the governmental Anti-C********n Committee showed the involvement of a number of members of the dissolved parliament and former officials in huge c********n deals. However, the request to lift the immunity was not granted.
The former Inspector General of the Ministry of Interior, Jamal Al-Asadi, said that the work of this committee is limited to looking into and investigating the orders or complaints that Al-Kazemi refers to it, or specifically referred by the Integrity Commission, estimating in a press statement the number of c********n files currently before this committee, including Between 30 and 50 files.
Al-Asadi indicated, in the context, that there is close cooperation between the Anti-C********n Committee and the Integrity Commission, in order to resolve major c********n files related to those with special degrees, political figures, and issues that require the approval of the Prime Minister, or the approval of the intelligence, security and control agencies in order to present them for investigation.
