STATUS OF THE RV
📉 RV Status Update – Reality Check, August 2025
🔹 No RV yet as August begins — and for good reason. The delays aren't mysterious or hidden; they're tied to real-world events and economics, not guru hype.
🔹 The idea that "budget tables" (Article 12) are holding up the RV is false. These tables are used to allocate funds to projects, not to trigger a revaluation. Many of those projects are delayed to 2026 due to falling oil prices and lack of funding.
🔹 Iraq’s major revenues are still in USD (petrodollars), not dinar. Revaluation is not needed to fund the budget — they’re still using the dollar for that.
🔹 For an RV to happen, Iraq must de-dollarize and unpeg from the USD — and they haven’t done that yet. Stability and control of the currency must come first.
🔹 The real focus is on fighting inflation, attracting foreign investment, and creating a strong financial structure — not just slapping on a higher rate.
🔹 Bottom line: No shortcuts. The RV must be economically justified and sustainable, not driven by speculation or internet noise.
