Iraq To Drop Dollar For Yuan In Trade With China

"The Iraqi central bank announced that, for the first time, it plans to allow trade from China
to be settled directly in yuan instead of the US dollar to improve access to foreign currency.

"It is the first time imports would be financed from China in yuan, as Iraqi imports from China have been financed in (US) dollars only," the government’s economic adviser, Mudhir Salih, told Reuters." ZeroHedge
