On the other hand, Mr. Cltag must know that the central bank can not stop the requests purchase of foreign currency because demand that is not being met can create market last lead to the creation of the exchange rate last which hold economic analysis and impedes economic decision-making as it would contravention of the Convention on the International Monetary Fund (which Iraq is considered to be one of the first signatories as he is one of the early founders of the fund) because it will lead to get a big difference between the official price and the market price of the dollar.
