The discussions culminated in the following:

1.Agreement to make banking arrangements between Iraqi banks and their Turkish counterparts through intermediary banks to ensure trade exchange for major merchants and importers and to make and pay remittances in the euro and Turkish lira currencies.

2.Agreement on organizing the trade exchange for small merchants and retailers (dinar in exchange for euros or Turkish lira) under arrangements with combined transfers according to a commercial organization that guarantees the integrated cycle of the commercial process (depositing in dinars inside Iraq, paying in euros or lira in Turkey, shipping goods from Turkey to Iraq).

Frank26  Question:  Article VIII, WTO do these matterYes without a doubt.  WTO you notice they have not been ascended into it.  Doesn’t matter.  Whenever they do it they’ll do it but what’s really important is in order to join the WTO you have to be Article VIII…All they have to do is raise the value of their currency, that’s it. 

Mnt Goat   “The Prime Minister’s philosophy confirms that economic reform cannot be achieved without reforming the banking system, and therefore the priority begins with reforming the financial system.”  …more proof that Iraqi’s economy does not need to grow any more at this time in order to get to the value of the dinar to what we need for a fair and honest rate reflected…the “priority” begins with reforming the financial system and currency reform is a large part of the financial system.  …Iraq will never be able to raise enough the money alone to rebuild Iraq and its economy unless they first complete the needed banking and financial reforms needed to attract investors…
