yota691 Posted August 29, 2020 Report Share Posted August 29, 2020 A historic agreement and a special file that the French President will carry on his visit to Iraq soon Editing date: 08/29/2020 15:10 • 30 times read [Baghdad-Where] Member of the Foreign Relations Committee in the Iraqi Parliament, Mukhtar Al-Mousawi, revealed, on Saturday, the files that French President Emmanuel Macron is carrying on his visit to Iraq soon. Al-Mousawi said, according to the Russian news agency Sputnik, that the French President, Macron, will visit the capital, Baghdad, next month, after changing the date of his visit, which was agreed upon by the French Defense Minister, Florence Parly. Moussawi added that the files carried by the French President on his visit to Iraq, on top of which are the discussion with the Iraqi government on electricity, because there is a German-French agreement on electric power. He confirmed, and Macron also carries with him a special file on Iraq's borders with neighboring countries: Syria, Turkey and Iran. He continued, that the French President's talks are economic and focus on energy. The Minister of the French Armies, Florence Parly, arrived in Baghdad last Thursday, August 27, and held talks with the President of the Republic, Barham Salih, Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kazemi, her counterpart Jumah Inad al-Jubouri, and the leader of the international coalition forces led by the United States of America against terrorism. Iraq suffers from a crisis in electric power over many years and a continuous interruption of the current current that prompted citizens to go out in angry popular protests, especially in the central and southern governorates, which are experiencing a significant rise in temperatures that exceed half the boiling point of water during the summer season. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longtimelurker Posted August 29, 2020 Report Share Posted August 29, 2020 I find the picture of Macron above as being peculiar so I researched pinky symbolism. I found this.. Communication seems to be the more prominent meaning amongst the sites I visited. What is President Macron saying? 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do remember that line from French IV. funny I remember all the curse words....those were more fun to laugh and say when no one understands what is being said... kind of like when foreign language people start speaking in their native tongue around english speakers... When they do this, I start little burst of giggles after something is said. They start looking at me strange. I then begin saying yes and nodding my head. Occasionally a no. It freaks them out they think I know their language. I mainly pick up the tone of their conversation. They eventually stop speaking in a foreign language and return to speaking english. Spanish (Latin American dialect) is somewhat easy to understand because you can pick up most of the words because they sound like the English version. I have even seen where they use this aspect to teach Spanish. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
