The Future of Iraq’s Oil Is Russian
 
Iraq, November 18, 2019
 
With ongoing protests making other investors nervous, Moscow is charging ahead.
 
Despite ongoing protests in Baghdad, which have seen the departure of many foreign diplomats for security concerns, Russia has doubled down.
 
Not only has its embassy stayed open in the recent weeks of turmoil, but its foreign minister, Sergei Lavrov (pictured), also paid a visit last month, first touring Baghdad and then Erbil.
 
His tour did not look like a regular diplomatic mission. There were no official agreements signed; politics, Syria, and terrorism seemed like an afterthought; and diplomats were in the minority during the week’s events.
 
In fact, the majority of the participants were businesspeople, including representatives of such Russian oil and gas companies as Gazprom Neft, Rosneft, Soyuzneftegaz, and Lukoil.
 
Also in attendance were representatives of Technopromexport, a Russian company that builds energy facilities, and from Russia’s Federal Service of Military-Technical Cooperation.

Amendment to Iraqi corruption law to tackle prevalent graft within government: diplomat
 
Iraq, November 18, 2019
 
ERBIL (Kurdistan 24) – A member of Iraq’s integrity committee in the council of representatives announced on Saturday the preparation of a project to amend the law of the Iraqi Commission of Integrity to fight corruption.
 
October’s deadly and Iraqi-wide demonstrations saw two weeks of pause midway through the month but continue today as protestors demand action against corruption that is widespread throughout governmental institutions in the country.
 
Handren Lazgin, a member of the Iraqi integrity committee in the Iraqi Parliament, announced that the project to amend the Iraqi Integrity Commission law is ready for voting in the parliament.
 
“If voted on, it will enable the commission to effectively act against corruption and take legal action and punish those charged with corruption,” Lazgin said.
 
“There are several open cases of corruption in the commission of integrity; however, most of them refer back to the previous governments in Iraq,” he noted, adding that “the current government, under the leadership of Adil Abdul Mahdi, has stood against corruption the most in comparison to the previous ones.”
 
Since demonstrations in Baghdad and other major Iraqi cities began in early October, at least 320 people have been killed on both sides and over 15,000 wounded amid a violent crackdown by security forces. International observers and human rights organizations have widely condemned the use of force.
 
Demonstrations continue as protesters are calling for an end to the economic woes of the public and a complete governmental overhaul amid shortages of public services, high rates of unemployment, and chronic institutional corruption.

11-17-2019   Newshound Guru Jeff    Article "The sale of dollars in the central bank stopped blocking the arrival of large fake funds to Iran".  Very  huge.  They are saying that CBI stop selling dollars and new measures...the only way they can stop the auction [is] if they change the rate.

11-17-2019   Intel Guru RayRen98
   Iraq TV reports that halting the sale of the US dollar in the auctions by the CBI has ended millions of fake funds to Iran indicating that those funds could build 200 schools and 50 hospitals per year. Cheers of excitement were heard by the crowds of protestors as they watched the message on the big screens. The citizens are saying that this is a start and that they want a complete end of all auctions and to have accountability for the deaths and the disposition of the oil revenues.  ...The US Secretary made statements to the people of Iraq informing them that the US will hold liable all corrupt persons that stole money belonging to the citizens. This message was broadcast on the big screens to calm the crowd.

11-17-2019   Intel Guru Delta   Article:  "The sale of dollars in the central bank stopped blocking the arrival of large fake funds to Iran"   ...VERY HUGE ...THEY ARE SAYING THAT CBI STOP SELLING DOLLARS AND NEW MEASURES ...THE ONLY WAY THEY CAN STOP THE AUCTION IF THEY CHANGE THE RATE.... IMO THIS WEEK MIGHT BE IT ...WE SHOULD FIND OUT IN THE NEXT 24-48 HRS THE NEXT MOVE FOR CBI..

11-17-2019   Newshound/Intel Guru Randy Koonce   ...Iraq is NOT going to do a LOP.  Forget any talk about a LOP...  The unrest in Iraq is not a factor in when this is going to be released.  It is not going to stop it, and President Trump recognizes that the only way to stop the unrest...Is to release the RV.  He's working on it!!  Know that!!  The controlling factor in when this is going to happen is the US.  Nothing else matters.  US!!  Period.  [post 4 of 4]

11-17-2019   Newshound/Intel Guru Randy Koonce   ...What I know for a fact is that President Trump is trying to get this released, in spite of tremendous opposition from the Democrats, who do not want this to happen.    The reason for the 'extended' window is because of our current political environment. ...This is a currency, whose value prior to the Iraqi war was worth $2.65.  It will be worth that again, and more because there are more assets in Iraq now than before.  This is going to happen!  The only question is when.  [post 3 of 4....stay tuned]

11-17-2019   Newshound/Intel Guru Randy Koonce   It is my understand that President Trump wants this done 'now'.  But we do not know how long 'now' might take to complete.  It is entirely possible that Thanksgiving 2019 could be one for the books.  But, as we ALL have learned, things can change the direction of this in a heartbeat.  So, while we have very good information right now, it is important that everyone remain grounded and focused on the long game. While we could have a lot to be thankful for at Thanksgiving this year, it also could be a New Year's  to remember.  ...at some point, in the very near future, we are going to have a lot for which to be very grateful.   [post 2 of 4....stay tuned]

11-17-2019   Newshound/Intel Guru  Randy Koonce   ... None of us knew that the Dinar Days of our Lives was going to run this long!!  ...none of us ever anticipated the political football this 'project' has become.  There is an abundance of evidence that this 'event' should have taken place many years ago.  But, here we are.  Still punting the dinar football!  The latest information that has come to me indicates that we are, once again, in a very hot window.  This window is open as we speak, and will remain open and hot through the end of the year.  Please pay attention!!  Now.  To the end of the year.  And I am hoping 'sooner than later.'  [post 1 of 4....stay tuned]
 
 
11-17-2019 Newshound Guru Jeff …we have seen more articles since July talking about article 140 and HCL more than we ever have in history. And those types of steps and actions would strongly confirm that we’re right on the edge of this. But like I said time is a factor…this is not a get rich overnight kind of thing...
