A member of the Al-Fatah Alliance, Aed Al-Hilali, saw that the American side is no longer able to bear additional financial burdens in light of the presence of its military forces inside Iraq, at a time when America is experiencing a difficult economic situation that requires it to reduce expenses.
Al-Hilali told Al-Maalouma, “America seeks to have a strong economic, military, or political influence inside Iraq, but it is no longer able to keep its forces in Iraq.”
He added, “The American military presence inside Iraq costs Washington large expenses in light of the crisis economic situation it is experiencing.”
He explained, “America’s budget has exceeded 30 trillion dollars, and the presence of its forces outside its country’s borders will exhaust the American budget, which will force Washington to negotiate with Baghdad to end its military presence, and turn the page toward balanced relations built on foundations and agreements between the two countries.” link

Tishwash: “Including fleeing from the dollar.” Revealing the reasons for the rise in gold prices in Baghdad
Salah Nouri told {Al-Furat News} agency, “Gold in general is a commodity for saving, as it is a precious metal, and at the level of central banks it is considered an investment and reserve for the local currency.”
He added, “The increase in gold jewelry that is happening at the present time results from the increase in demand for it. When demand for every commodity increases, its price rises, and so far this is economically logical.”
Nouri added, “But more importantly, why has the demand for gold jewelry increased at the present time? I think that the citizen tends to save in it instead of the dollar, and this is a weak reason. It is more likely that traders speculating in the dollar are turning to gold instead of the dollar for reasons of speculation or smuggling, because Individual citizens’ need for gold jewelry is limited to special occasions.”
Meanwhile, an informed source told {Al-Furat News} that one of the reasons for the rise in gold prices was due to “citizens’ weak confidence in banks, so they withdrew the amounts deposited in the banks and turned to gold.”
Local markets in Baghdad are witnessing a rise in gold prices, as the selling price of a gram reached {the mithqal}. 465 thousand dinars. link
