Today we emphasized to the banks that the remaining red line is if the citizen deposits money in US dollars, then he must receive his deposit in US dollars as well.
The situation has changed today. We want to spare the Central Bank and Iraqi banks from sanctions, deprivation and problems, so we must comply with international laws and norms.
I am surprised by the word “crisis.” Today, Iraq is at a level of historical reserves that exceed 100 billion dollars, and we have the fourth largest Arab gold reserve. We do not have a crisis, and the price of a barrel of oil is 90 dollars, and we export 4 million barrels per day.
The dollar exists and is available to every person or entity that uses official channels to obtain it. How do I compare myself to Lebanon? Lebanon does not have the resources that we have, and price inflation is declining, despite the exchange rate situation. link
