Interesting....However, any deals with IRAN would not work in our favor especially if we are talking about an RV.  Unless of course, our recent call for increased sanctions has been rescinded. We are still under the "PLAN" and we are currently not playing ball with Iran.

Rohani challenges Saudi Arabia in Iraq: They will not compete with us electrically

In an international - reports  November 19, 2018 on Rouhani defying Saudi Arabia in Iraq: will not compete with us electrically closed 31 visits


Iranian President Hassan Rowhani said on Monday that his country would continue to export oil despite US sanctions, which he described as an economic war and part of a "psychological war" destined to fail .

"We will not give in to this pressure, which is part of the psychological war on Iran," Rowhani said in a televised address on Sunday. "They failed to stop our oil exports. We will continue to export it ... Your regional policy has failed and you blame Iran for this failure from Afghanistan to Yemen and Syria. "

He said Washington lacked the necessary international support for its sanctions, saying it had "granted sanctions exemptions to eight major buyers of Iranian oil . "

 "America is isolated now, and Iran has the support of many countries, with the exception of Israel and some countries in the region. No other countries support the pressure exerted by America on Iran," Rowhani said.

Earlier this month, the United States imposed a second package of sanctions on Tehran, aimed at forcing Iran to abandon its ballistic missile program, impose new restrictions on its nuclear program and reduce its support for allied militias in Syria, Lebanon and Yemen.

Tehran rejects Iraqi dinar for gas exports to Baghdad, suggests euro

ERBIL (Kurdistan 24) – Iran's Oil Ministry on Monday said that it would not accept the Iraqi dinar in return for Baghdad's purchases of their oil after US sanctions on Iran's energy and financial sectors took effect in early November.

Washington granted eight nations it called "constituencies" exemptions from the sanctions for a limited period. Amid a flurry of confusion, the US administration later said that it had also allowed Iraq a special waiver of a 45-day purchase of Iranian electricity imports.

The waiver, however, is conditional; Iraq must not pay for the Iranian imports in US dollars. Iraqi officials later announced that Baghdad had created a dedicated bank account to conduct the transactions using the dinar.

"National Iranian Gas Company doesn’t agree with the suggestion," Deputy Oil Minister Amir-Hossein Zamaninia was quoted as saying by the semi-official ISNA news agency.

Zamaninia added that "negotiations are still underway" and "according to the contract, Iraqis should pay for the gas imports in euro currency."

The two Middle-Eastern countries are in the midst of talks to resolve the issue, the official continued. Iraq's economy is heavily intertwined with its eastern neighbor's, importing many goods including food and oil products and also gas, on which the country is heavily dependent for fueling its power plants.

A recent report suggested that Baghdad, feeling the US deadline was not sufficient to find an alternate source of gas, was seeking an extension from the US to continue imports from Iran, according to one Iraqi official.

Another official claimed that Iran had accepted a Baghdad proposal to "pay food and humanitarian items" in return for their gas.

"The reports that Iraq is to give humanitarian goods and food in exchange for Iran gas… are not true," said Zamaninia.

Since the US pulled out from the Iran nuclear deal in May and re-instituted two sets of sanctions targeting the Islamic Republic’s economy, the rial has been on a downward spiral, affecting the purchasing power of the country’s population. Many citizens have criticized the government for failing to effectively deal with the crisis.

Japan and South Korea plan to resume Iranian oil imports from January
[Where - Follow - up] 
Informed sources said that refineries in Japan and South Korea is looking to resume the import of Iranian oil from the beginning of January after obtaining an exemption from US sanctions on Tehran.

An unexpected increase in Iran's oil exports has contributed to the exceptions in reducing the immediate price of crude oil and condensates from the Middle East to the lowest level in more than a year. 
In November, the United States granted exemptions from sanctions to eight countries and allowed it to import Iranian crude for 180 days. Japan and South Korea are among the top five buyers of Iranian crude and condensates before halting imports in the third quarter of the year ahead of sanctions. 
South Korean refineries are expected to stop buying until the end of the year, and shipments may resume in late January or early February as buyers are in talks with Iran to sign new contracts, industry sources said. 
"They are seeking the best price and are in talks with Iran," a source familiar with the matter said.
Most tankers are reserved until December, so South Korea may be able to ship Iranian oil in January at the earliest, he said. 
The arrival of oil shipments from Iran to South Korea takes about 25 days. Iran also has the option of selling oil from tanks in Dalian, China, shortening delivery times. 
Last week, a South Korean delegation visited Iran to negotiate the 2019 supply of condensates from the southern Pars field. 
"There are issues that need to be resolved, such as repayment. We can not buy at the moment and will not rush.Iran is also trying not to sell at a cheaper price. We will not import Iranian oil until January. " 
Fuji Oil, one of Iran's biggest buyers of crude oil in Japan, plans to resume imports of Iranian crude from January and is also looking to buy condensate.
Fuji Oil chief executive said last week the company was considering whether to sign a new contract on Iranian crude, adding that the price of Iranian oil was competitive against competitive raw materials. 
JXT, Japan's largest refinery, said earlier this month it would resume loading Iranian crude from December. 
While Japanese buyers are likely to buy Iranian crude by February, they may not buy any quantities from March until the government renews the sovereign insurance of ships in the new fiscal year beginning April 1, industry sources said. 
Japan began to apply the sovereign insurance system in 2012 in the face of sanctions on Iran's oil to cover any shortfalls in protection, compensation and insurance for vessels carrying Iranian crude to Japan.
The government declined to give information on the volume of imports to be allowed from Iran under the 180-day exemption. 
Some sources said the exemption from sanctions would allow Japan to buy about 100,000 barrels per day of Iranian crude. This represents a significant reduction for buyers who bought about 165,000 barrels per day of Iranian oil from January to September. 
Japan joined South Korea in a temporary moratorium on loading Iranian crude in mid-September.

According to this article, it doesn't look like Iraq will comply with US sanctions against Iran.  So if they trade with Iran using dinar, and then RV, Iran will benefit big-time.

Russia denies a proposal for a partial lifting of the blockade on Iran in return for withdrawal from Syria

Russia denies proposal to partially lift the blockade on Iran in exchange for a withdrawal from Syria



 Twilight News    
 5 hours ago

 The Russian Foreign Ministry has denied claims that there was a Russian proposal to partially lift sanctions against Tehran in exchange for the withdrawal of Iranian troops from Syria.

Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov told reporters on Wednesday that Moscow had not proposed to Israel and the United States to lift part of the sanctions imposed on Tehran in exchange for the withdrawal of its troops from Syrian territory.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu revealed during a closed meeting before the Committee on Foreign Affairs and Defense of the Knesset, a Russian-Israeli-US deal, which could lead to the withdrawal of Iranian militias from Syria, according to Israeli media reported.

The Israeli Channel 10 reported Tuesday evening that the deal included the removal of the Iranian forces from Syria in return for easing US sanctions against Tehran.

For his part, drew the newspaper "Maariv" that Netanyahu said Monday before the members of the Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee that Russian President Vladimir Putin offered to ease the US sanctions on Iran in exchange for withdrawal from Syria.

Netanyahu met Putin in Paris, 10 days ago, on the sidelines of the events marking the centenary of the end of the First World War.

Meanwhile, Israeli Chief of Staff Lieutenant-General Gadi Eisenkot warned Tuesday of Iranian positioning in Syria.

During his tour of the Golan Heights, First Lieutenant Gadi Eisenkot pointed out that Hezbollah is far from the capabilities the Iranians aspire to form, even though it has gained increased military and operational experience.

For its part, the United States called on Tuesday all foreign countries, primarily Iran, to withdraw its troops deployed in Syria.

In response to a question about the Iranian militias in Syria, the US Special Envoy for Syria, James Jeffrey, told a news conference on Tuesday by telephone: "These Iranian forces are not only to support the Assad regime but to achieve long-term goals in the region is to impose hegemony To achieve its benefits and transform power in Syria as it did in Lebanon and Yemen and try in other countries. "

He noted that since US President Donald Trump took office, the US focus in Syria shifted from the fate of President Bashar al-Assad to a focus on combating Iran's role in Syria.

The US envoy also stressed that the withdrawal of Iranian troops from Syria is an undisputed demand and that changing the Syrian regime's conduct is a condition for Syria to receive international aid.
