Again barely literate gobbledygook that betrays zero understanding of international economics I don't even know where to start. It is okay to educate yourself say take an Eco101 class before mouthing off on this stuff. The process of educating you is gargantuan task but nevertheless no deserves this viral ignorance.

The knocking off of the dollar of it's perch from as the nearly preeminent currency of international trade is not a short term thing, the US has been the currency of choice for less than 80 years, even at the time of the start of it's influence in the immediate aftermath of World War 2, the sterling did not disappear overnight.


Your arguments are typically short on actual figures but long on barely coherent innuendos, The dollar constitutes 59% of all allocated currency reserves in 2022 down from 70% in just 2001. A quarter of the reduction could be directly attributed to the remnibi (Yuan), the trend seems to be accelerating. If the trend holds and the Saudis do not strike a new petrodollar agreement it is estimated it would constitute less than half by 2030.

Even more striking, some countries that have shed the dollar even more stopped reporting the composition of their reserves, more and more countries are striking trades in bilateral currencies and gold
.

While the dollar addiction would be terribly hard to break the trend is clear and it would eventually rapidly swell US's cost of borrowing and lessen the impact of it's unilateral sanctions.

It is starting to generate chatter and worry among US policymakers and a presidential campaign who unlike you provincial nobody know how to read trends, graphs, charts not just spill illiterate agitprop all over the internet.

The US would fight tooth and nail, try their utmost to fight any potential BRIC currency which could only exert a deleterious effect on the dollar even of it is not widely adopted which isn't a sure thing. The US is worried, it should be.


Any educated person knows great powers do not lose their powers overnight, it is death by a thousand cuts which is why the US is fighting like a rabid dog to preserve the 'international order' with itself conveniently at the top, but this international order is destined to die under the sheer weight of it's contradictions
This is top notch analysis with right use of words.

you have been seeking my attention for a while now, but the truth is I don't have the TIME for a senseless back and forth rumble match with you, I don't sir accept my sincere apologies.

in respect to the long epistles you wrote, they are all base on one word "probability"
All I pointed was base on facts present today, not on estimate figures or imaginary feelings


it been over 4 years now since the idea of floating a new brics currency was first touted, we are still waiting for it to launch, young man one of the most and defining qualities of money is acceptance, so till your imaginary brics currency comes out or your fallacy of the dollar losing its spot as the number one currency's of choice for inter Nations trade, I will advise you to kindly keep the hole in your face shut

like I said am not in anyway interested in a profitless arguments with you


P.S waiting patiently for the floodgate of insults., don't disappoint me😉
The Truth of the matter is what the analysis of that guy is void of argument. The fact that proposed currency of the brics nations has not been announced which you base your argument on, does not negate the fact that the international polity system is changing. These things takes years to accomplish even to 50 years upwards.
The US dominance today did not just start all of a sudden. It took shape with time and here we are today. Mind this is not a debate of pro West vs pro East. It is just from observation of what is happening. There is a gradual dynamic change in the world currently weather we like it or not.

there is a misconception that countries will stop using the dollars to trade, and that will pose a risk to the USA.

China the biggest economy in brics, will still do business with the USA, which is the biggest bi lateral trade In the world and it will be done in dollars
Top 5 China biggest trading partners are the USA, EU, Japan, Hong Kong and Taiwan, will China not do business with its top 5 trading partners in dollars ?

Another big bric,member is India, India biggest trading partners is the EU,China USA UAE Russia, while India may not use the dollars when trading with China, Russia, won't India use the dollars when trading with The EU,USA and the UAE ?

Brazil top trading partners are China, the USA, Argentina, Netherlands and Chile, Brazil may use its indigenous currencies, but will it not trade in dollars when trading with the USA Argentina, Netherlands and Chile ?

finally the eye service South Africa, it's top trading partners include China, the USA, Germany, Japan, UK, and India.while south Africa might not use dollars when trading with China and India base on the brics affiliation, won't they use the dollars when trading with Germany, Japan, UK the USA and others ?

the greenback will always and still be the most widely and acceptable means of Forgien exchange.

USA
China
Japan
Germany
India
UK
France
Brazil
Canada
Italy's
South Korea
Spain
Mexico
Indonesia
Isreal
Turkey
Switzerland
Poland
Norway
Thailand
Belgium
Sweden

This are the top biggest economies in the world in no particular order,
how many of this biggest economies will be willing to ditch the dollars, a currency which most have thier forgien reserve for a imaginary currency floated by Putin ?
Except USA, china or any other country can trade with EU in euro currency na

😂😂😂😂😂. The sanctions are not even working.
Being able to circumvent sanctions doesn't really means it don't affect you....

Imagine the usual route you'd usually take to your house and there's a road block there forcing you to go take a longer route to arrive at your destination.
That's how western sanctions on Russia is, it only made the road longer for Russia.

Their oil and gas are still flowing.. price cap didn't work. The west sanctions failed because it did not stop the war which was their aim for the sanctions.

Of course it will be better to do business without sanctions but then again Russia adapted even though all this is a temporary solution their shadow fleet, India, middleman etc.

Russia was also heavily sanctioned in 2014 after annexing Crimea. Did that stop it from executing the 2022 special military operation?


Lol you don’t understand Russia. You will.... Soon.

If it was heavily sanctioned as you claim

so when will they give Ukraine the money?
when you don't take TIME to read, you start making a fool of yourself, from trying to discredit me after I posted a credible news, now you have now jumped to when we Ukraine get the money.

how did Ukraine get its hirmass system, how did they get tank's, how did they get Western long range weapons, wasn't it from the aid given to them by the USA and it's allies.

go ask potus biden and the rest of the g7 when Ukraine will get the funds, I don't have the capacity to tell you that.

how do you feel now that you have carefully read the article, don't you feel stupid now ?

young man keep your sentiment to yourself, am not interested ok.

Cheers have a nice day ahead.

⚡The U.N.

Despite the Pier not being utilized for the Operation, the United Nations has said that the Operation raised several “Security Concerns” that they will have to Review.
