Iraq is now truly a global economic force & needs a currency worthy. Now shipping international oil with it's own flagship oil tankers. Iraq recently contracted SK to build more super oil tankers. 9 June 2018 Baghdad Post... First Iraq-flagged oil tanker in 3 decades leaves port. An Iraq-flagged tanker carrying two million barrels of crude oil has set sail for the US, the first such trip in nearly three decades, the oil ministry said Saturday, Daily Mail reported. Iraq, which has been ravaged by a series of wars since the 1980s, is the oil cartel OPEC’s second biggest producer with 153 billion barrels of proven crude reserves. “The Baghdad left Basra on Friday night headed for the United States. It is the first time since 1991 that Iraq is running its own oil tankers,” oil ministry spokesman Assem Jihad said.

Luigi1 Posted June 13, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2018 this latest just in... 12 June 2018 Bruce: You wonder whether the Iraq dinar is complete, whether it is there, whether it has a rate there yet. Why would Iraq have 5 ships on the water full of Oil heading to the US unless they had a currency ready to utilize. They got that coming. It is on the way. I think two are arriving and 3 will be by Friday/Saturday. That is good to know. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
