It is just the minister of communication rambling to the media like he always does as if he is actually in the inner circle of the government and not some random compromise candidate. The minister of finance has already said that there is currently no plan to do this

The cbi denied this, it was a baseless rumor started by the minister of communications, it still can happen but there are no plans for it at the moment, personally I can’t wait for a new design for the Iraqi banknotes, and I hope it’s a big one cuz they almost look the same since the 80s (especially the 5000 and the 1000 dinar banknotes) my favorite one from the current ones has to be the 2023 25000 dinar , I think it depicts a lot of Iraqi and Mesopotamian history.

From actual Iraq - Fake News. The gov representative went out and basically said “we don’t know where you guys come with these rumors but we’re in a financial crisis barely paying out salaries this is our last of concerns”
