China And Russia To Create A New Gold-backed Currency by altcoinng: 2:14pm On Oct 31, 2022
Fox Business experts believe that Russia and China will create a new currency backed by gold since China has been buying huge amounts of gold and Russia was forced to abandon the U.S. dollar due to sanctions.

Craig Singleton, a senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies and a former U.S. diplomat, explained that for two decades, Chinese leaders have talked about reforming the global financial system and weakening the dominance of the U.S. dollar.

Two components of that strategy center around a global commodity trading system based on the yuan and China’s efforts in partnership with Russia and other like-minded countries to challenge the dollar’s dominance by creating a new reserve currency.

In essence, Beijing and Moscow are seeking to build their own sphere of influence and monetary unit within that sphere, effectively protecting themselves from the threat of U.S. sanctions.

Swiss gold exports to China in July rose to their highest level since December 2016: during the month, Switzerland sent 80.1 tons of gold worth 4.4 billion Swiss francs ($4.4 billion) to mainland China, according to customs data.

Data from the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT), a global financial messaging firm, showed that 42.6% of global payments in August were in U.S. dollars, 34% in euros and 2.3% in Chinese yuan.

Ming-Hua Chiang, an economist at the Heritage Foundation’s Center for Asian Studies, emphasized that the yuan “lags behind the US dollar and the euro,” because the euro, for example, requires “a level of political and economic coordination and integration that does not exist in Asia today.

During the BRICS summit in July, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced that the BRICS countries (Russia, China, India, Brazil and South Africa) were planning to issue a “new global reserve currency. Analysts believe the move is an attempt to undermine the dominance of the U.S. dollar and the International Monetary Fund’s special drawing rights.

This is good news. We need an alternative world reserve currency so that if they ban us from one, we can use another one.
this option will be good for countries willing to challenge US status quo and dominance

We need a bipolar world!
It's long overdue. What we have today in the international politics is the Lords and the serfs order! It's terribly wrong.
We even need a brand new multi polar world.
Prior to the demise of the Soviet Union, lots of people thought that a world dominated by the Americans and the West, with all their pro democracy/pro free market economy rants, will be the best thing to happen to humanity going forward. It has been nothing but a catastrophe!

The West led by the Americans have decided to corner everything for themselves using all the dubious advantages that came with being the dominant global powers. The poor has been the worst hit by this as the gap between rich nations and the poorer ones widens... It's seems like western capitalism can't thrive unless there is a very clear line between the rich and the the poor.., the strong and the weak.., and the privileged and the underprivileged! Countries outside the Western hemisphere have struggled more with wars and civil carnage! Poverty and social turmoil have become convinient tools used by the west to subdue others, while they live in hedonistic opulence. It has to stop! Humanity deserves better.

Let's have different powers centers

"The changing world order." Russia bought several tons of gold in 2021 based on the detailed info I read on the global supply of gold as of December 2021.

The upticks in gold purchases was
a strong pointer to the fact that
Russia was already planning a full-scale invasion of Ukraine!

According to the South African president, Saudi Arabias Crown Prince suggested to him that he wants to join the BRIC nations few days ago! Do you know the other members of the BRIC nations and their ideology? Russia, China, India, Brasil etc. Remember that the leftist Lula was just elected the new president of Brasil! You remember that he was jailed partly because of his nonconformist stand to the imperial agenda of the West... Things are naturally aligning well for those opposed to Western domination of international politics..

If the Saudis ever makes any serious foundamental change of policy as it regards their age long insistence on using the dollar to trade for their oil, the dollar is toast! That's the only reason why the dollar is still competitive. Other major Oil exporting nations will follow suit. The Iranians and the Venezuelans have always wanted that change. They're never Americas allies. The gulf states with the exception of the Qataris make their foreign policies in agreement with the Saudis, so expect them to tag along the Saudis on that. Libya and Iraq are all messed up already and Russia the biggest Oil producer outside OPEC is no more interested in the dollar!

The dollar is in a huge danger. Very big danger..
The only way the Russians and the Chinese can bring The Americans to their knees is to radically undermine the influence of the dollar. And they seem to have decided to do that. It's a very risky venture. Take away the dollar and the Americans can never be able to be printing endless money as they like to maintain their endless military bases and fleet overseas.

So this war in Ukraine might have been planned for years and the Russians just decided to bite the other day. I also believe that it was because of the possibility of a war in Ukraine that led to The US into a hasty withdrawal from Afghanistan. They didn't want to have a sizeable chunck of their troops in such a jumpy and vulnerable place like Kabul, knowing fully well that their support for Zelenskys government might force the Russians to support say the Taliban against them in Afghanistan.
