Which one of the following statements is not correct ? Dinar/New dinar is the currency of
Explanation
The incorrect option is UAE. The United Arab Emirates uses the United Arab Emirates dirham (AED), not a dinar, as shown in the ISO currency listing [1]. Yugoslavia has been associated with the dinar (including a “New Yugoslavia Dinar” code) [1]. Tunisia’s national currency is explicitly the Tunisian dinar, referenced in official trade/government documents [2]. Sudan has used a Sudanese dinar (SDD) in currency listings and converters, demonstrating the dinar denomination’s use there historically or in some periods. Therefore, among the four choices only the UAE does not use a “dinar/new dinar.”
