Dretown39 Posted March 3 Report Share Posted March 3 1 hour ago, 6ly410 said: So back in January Iraq put out an article about restoring the mechanism of financing Iraq's foreign trade starting the process this month. They want to do this with different currencies. This sounds like to me they are starting to implement that process. If this is connected to that announcement then this is a good thing. I'm going to stay grounded..this month & next could be very interesting. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
