On 6 September, Al-Ghadeer TV (Badr Organization — official) and Al-Nujaba TV (Nujaba — official) relayed Central Bank governor statements saying currency changes fall under the bank’s authority, deleting zeros requires parliamentary legislation, seven banks may soon conduct non-dollar transactions, new lending initiatives are planned, most Al-Taif Bank deposits are guaranteed, issued currency totals 107 trillion dinars with nearly 40 trillion circulating, and banking reform continues with Oliver Wyman without further international sanctions. Al-Ghadeer TV (Badr Organization — official) also carried the governor’s statement that Iraq invests in the United States because it is a safe haven and the country that granted Iraq immunity; Al-Nujaba TV’s posts from the briefing did not carry that statement. No named authority or press report has independently substantiated the governor’s underlying assertions.
