We are pleased to enclose Council Regulation (EC) No 1210/2003 of 7 July 2003 concerning certain specific restrictions on economic and financial relations with Iraq and repealing Regulation (EC) No 2465/96.

On the basis of Article 8 of the Regulation, we invite the professionals of the financial sector to immediately report any relevant information relating to the enclosed Regulation to the CSSF, who will forward the information to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Division of International Economic Relations, as well as to the Ministry of Finance. As the CSSF, through the circular letter dated 28 May 2003, had already requested the professionals of the financial sector to provide the information concerned, we invite you to only submit information regarding the changes that have occurred since that date.

    * Chronology of Events in Iraq, June 2003 June 1 Gun amnesty declared. (Kurdistan Democratic Party newspaper Khabat) The two weeks' notice given by the coalition forces to the population to hand over weapons and ammunitions in Iraq, started. Everyone can put his gun in a plastic bag and bring it to the Iraqi police centres. According to a statement by the coalition forces, anyone who carries gun in the streets, except a pistol, which has been allowed, after the two weeks notice will be immediately arrested and punished. It was stated that people can possess rifles like Kalashnikovs at home, but they are not allowed to carry them in the markets. Ba’athist killed in Basra. (Al-Jazeera satellite TV) A former army colonel who worked for the security agencies was targeted and killed on the Umm-Qasr-Basra road. June 2 Food rationing resumes in Iraq. (Radio Free Europe / Radio Liberty RFE/RL Iraq Report) Millions of Iraqis began collecting food rations as the UN World Food Program restarted the distribution of monthly ration packages in Iraq after two months. The rations will be given to Iraqi citizens who present pre-war ration cards. Around 60 percent of Iraqis were dependent on monthly rations under the deposed Baath regime. The UN distributed the rations from 1996 until the start of US-led war under the oil-for-food program, which is currently being phased out under UN Security Council Resolution 1483. Tension between Arabs and Kurds in Daquq region. (Iraqi Kurdish newspaper Jamawar) It was reported by Kurdish sources that after the Arabs who had been brought to the Daquq province within the context of the Arabization process had fled, and the Kurds returned to their properties and homes, some Arabs once again intend to fight their way back to those regions.

(Iraqi Kurdistan Democratic Party newspaper Brayati) After the surrender of a large number of officers and soldiers on the front-line areas to peshmarga forces, Iraqi authorities brought a large number of party and military officials to the front-lines to prevent soldiers from escaping to Kurdish-controlled northern Iraq.
