There's been indications in the IMF's own reports, in what's called their article IV consultations...

there's been comments from the IMF...

where they've told them [Iraq] to liberalize their foreign exchange, to move to article VIII.   

There's been statements in those Article IV consultations that have been very encouraging regarding our investment leading us down the path of what we're looking for...

freedom of movement of capital...

'moving to article VIII will send a strong message to the global investment community that Iraq is open for business.' 

So there is no confusion there...they have to move to Article VIII...

if they want to convince the world 'hey, we're ready. Come and invest.'  

So article VIII isn't a dream we're hoping for,

it's a step in the process and we're just on the cusp I think of that occurring...

[Does Iran have any or a negative impact on our investment?]  ...

yes it has an impact...

The U.S./Iran situation is very serious and is escalating daily.

Instability, instability, instability. 

I'm anxious to see the Art. IV statement from IMF. 

It is suppose to come out today...that review will be interesting. 

Iraq continues to look stronger and stronger economically,

however, the M.E. tension is worrisome...

Murphy asks: Iraq is one of the poles of conflict and dependency

 

- 33 Minutes Ago

 

 

 

A few days ago, at the hearing of US Deputy Secretary of State Joan Bulashik and Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Middle East Affairs Michael Mulleroy on US policy in Iraq, US Senator Chris Murphy, the senior Democrat in the Senate Foreign Relations Subcommittee The United States Senate on the Near East and South Asia, Central Asia and the fight against terrorism, about Trump's plans for Iraq with regard to the reduction of the US diplomatic mission and the manner in which the popular mobilization should be followed.

First, in terms of the reduction of the US diplomatic mission, according to special information received by the Center for Links, it can be said that the US Embassy will not leave Iraq, and the missile attack that occurred nearby in May, which called for the departure of some of its insignificant staff, and the return of some And later on to their work, will not change the policy of the United States of America in support of the stability of Iraq, according to that information also, there will be no reduction in the US diplomatic mission in Iraq, but there is an American tendency to develop relations with Iraq in all areas, especially political and economic Adia and military.

A major state in the international community such as the United States of America is concerned not only with the absolute security of its diplomatic mission in Iraq, but also with the security of its friendly and allied embassies in Baghdad and the consulates in the Kurdistan region and Basra. Washington was upset by the attack on the Bahraini embassy in Baghdad, It is also disturbed by the assassination of the Turkish Deputy Consul in Erbil, which fears that these attacks may turn into behavior against its diplomatic mission and the missions of allied and friendly countries in Iraq.

A class in terms of intellectual orientation strongly linked to Iran, means that it follows the mandate of the jurist, and this is very dangerous for the United States, it is keen not to repeat the Lebanese version of Hezbollah in Iraq, because of this version of the serious repercussions on the Iraqi state, 
Second, it is the group that gained the respect of the Iraqi people because of the sacrifices it made in order to liberate the Iraqi land from the desecration of the organization calling for the terrorist. According to special information obtained by the Center of Links, this latter category will be won by Washington and its rehabilitation for the entry of its members into the Iraqi armed forces And, if Washington was able to cooperate with the Iraqi government to achieve this, they will thus be relegated an important part of the popular crowd about the Iranian line.
