DSull: (IMO) There will be NO RV until there is a stable government in Iraq (period!). No one wants Maliki as the PM, except Maliki.
Although Maliki's political party (the SOL) have the most votes (93-95), it will take at least 167 parliament votes to win the PM seat.
The process is not like here in the US, where we basically have 2 parties, and we vote for a President. In Iraq, they vote for a political party, as in Parliament seats. Those winning groups form a block of at least 167 seats, which gives them more than half of the Parliament Seats and subsequently the right to chose a Prime Minister.

....
Once these "blocks" are formed, Parliament holds
its first meeting and names a President.
At this time, the "winning block" (the one formed earlier, which obtains at least 167 seats), submits there PM Candidate for ratification. Once this PM is accepted, an announcement is made and the PM is seated. There is the government. |
There is time given between each of these stages of the
process, but it is a max time.
Clearly the new Parliament has now been formed, because they were scheduled for their first meeting on June 30th. Then, a few days ago, that initial meeting was moved up to this Tuesday (June 24th), a full week early!
Your guess is as good as mine, but, I believe the government has already been formed. We simply await the official process to be completed and the announcements.
Again, IMO we will not see an International RV until there is a stable government. And, rightly so.
All that being said, as well the fact of the July 1st date for so many agreements to start, including the ISX -International release date, I do believe that Iraq is expediting this "process" and will have a new, seated, functional government before the end of this coming week, in order to RV their currency by or before July 1st.
I will even take it one step further and say that Maliki will not be the next PM, but Chalibi will.
Personally, I would also like to see Barzani (from the Kurds) as the next Iraqi President, but that's just wishful thinking.
Here's to our long awaited international RV between Tuesday (June 24th) and Tuesday (July 1st)!

BigIron: A trillion dollars? Really? The greed of these politicians...appalling. 17% of Iraqi citizens live in poverty. Remember what happened to Sadaam Hussein? I hope they catch every corrupt MP. Get a rope.

6-20-14 Arthur [via Poppy3] The Iraqi constitutional process is that they have 15 days after the new Parliament is ratified (June 15th) to start the new Parliament session. But we now know they upped that to the 24th instead of July 1st. So on the 24th they will vote in whoever the new speaker is if isn't Najafi which I don't think it will be because he smells of the last Parliaments failures.
That person will get 2 deputies voted in at that time with him. Then they will elect a President. That President will then turn to the largest Bloc which will be the new National Coalition and they will pick their candidate for PM who will then pick his Council of Ministers. All this is coordinated to happen very quickly and all we need is for the process to get started in earnest.

WmaWhite: Just an opinion concerning the revaluation of the IQD...the Prime Minister will NOT announce a change in the value of the IQD. Instead, it will be the Central Bank of Iraq. It is a financial event...NOT a political event. There is a difference.
WmaWhite: Here is a translation of a very recent comment the Governor of the CBI made: ..Here is a more detailed summary of what was said, as per my friend who's native language is Arabic: This video is saying that the Governor of the CBI Mr Turki is expressing his regret that the financial currency politics of Iraq has to deal with the current situation in Iraq.

However he is assuring that the CBI has the capability of
supporting the currency exchange of the Iraqi dinar to the most extent
without a bar limit, and that the central bank reserve is very safe at banks
outside iraq.
He also noted that the reserve of the hard currency exceeds 70 billion dollars and the gold reserve is almost triple as of last year. |
