The recent news of the Chinese yuan surpassing the US dollar as the most traded currency in Russia holds great significance on both geopolitical and economic fronts. This development could suggest the deepening of economic ties between Russia and China, as both countries have made efforts in recent times to reduce their reliance on the US dollar and diversify their reserves. The increasing usage of the yuan in Russia could be perceived as a positive move in this direction. Moreover, the rise of the yuan as a significant trading currency in Russia may contribute to a broader trend of diminishing the role of the US dollar in the global economy. While the US dollar has been the dominant currency in international trade and finance for decades, its position has been challenged by China and Russia. The surge of the yuan as a major trading currency in Russia could potentially be a stepping stone towards the devaluation of the US dollar on a global scale, but could also mean very bad news for the Xi Jinping regime. Furthermore, if the yuan continues to gain traction as a leading trading currency in Russia and other countries, it could have a considerable impact on the global financial system. Some experts predict that the shift away from the US dollar could lead to greater volatility in global currency markets and undermine the stability of the international monetary system. The US may perceive the increasing use of the yuan in Russia as a challenge to its economic and geopolitical interests. To counter this, the US may adopt measures to safeguard the dominance of the US dollar. The rise of the yuan as the most traded currency in Russia points towards the changing dynamics of global economic power. While it’s easy to predict the exact implications of this trend, it’s also evident that the international monetary system is undergoing significant changes that could have far-reaching consequences for global economic and political stability.
Oh, where we have heard that before? Saddam Hussein did express an interest in selling oil in euros instead of U.S. dollars in late 2000, and Iraq began to accept the euro as payment for its oil exports in November of that year. Saddam’s move to price oil in euros may have been a factor in the decision by the United States to invade Iraq, as it threatened the dominance of the U.S. dollar as the world’s primary reserve currency. The U.S. dollar has been the standard currency for oil trading since the 1970s, and any threat to its status could potentially have significant economic implications for the United States. Muammar Gaddafi, the former leader of Libya, did express an interest in creating a gold-backed currency for Africa in 2011. Specifically, he proposed the creation of a unified African currency that would be backed by gold, instead of relying on the U.S. dollar or other foreign currencies. However, it is not so difficult to draw a direct connection between this proposal and the events that ultimately led to Gaddafi’s downfall. In February 2011, protests against Gaddafi’s regime broke out in Libya, and a civil war soon ensued. The international community, led by the United States, France, and the United Kingdom, intervened in the conflict, supporting the anti-Gaddafi forces with airstrikes and other forms of military aid. Gaddafi was eventually captured and killed in October 2011, after being found by anti-Gaddafi forces hiding in a drainage ditch near his hometown of Sirte. His death marked the end of his regime and the beginning of a new era in Libyan history. In the realm of geopolitics, the whole development carries a heavy connotation – anyone with even a basic understanding of the subject would recognize that it often signifies the coming war.
