CandyKisses: Identifying two phenomena behind the exchange rate drop
Mawazine News – Baghdad
A member of the State of Law Coalition, Saad al-Muttalib, on Thursday, identified two phenomena behind the decline in the exchange rate of the dollar against the Iraqi dinar, while confirming the continuation of the decline until next week.
Al-Muttalib said in a statement to Mawazine News that “the decline in the exchange rate of the US dollar against the Iraqi dinar is behind two phenomena, the first is the measures of the Central Bank to facilitate the process of trade exchange by entering the platform for financial transfers, which led to a decrease in demand for the dollar from the parallel market.”
“The second phenomenon is the arrival of large shipments of dollars to the Iraqi treasury from Iraq’s funds in the US Federal Bank, which contributed to saving the dollar significantly,” he added.
He predicted, “The decline of the dollar against the dinar will continue until next week, but it will take a while to reach the official rate.”

Al-Bandawi said in an interview with “Baghdad Today” that “it is not possible to accept the application of the principle of militarization of embassies in Baghdad,” indicating that “what is happening in the American embassy in terms of militarization threatens the security of the country, especially since it includes thousands of soldiers in the Green Zone and possesses weapons and anti-aircraft guns.” It terrifies the people from time to time.”
He continued, “We hope that the embassy will take into account common interests, including Iraq, and not turn it into a military base,” stressing that “the repeated targeting of the Popular Mobilization Forces headquarters is intentional and condemned.”
