  1. Only 12% of the global economy is traded outside the USD. The dollar is like English, it's one of the few reliable constants in this world.

  2. ​ @ruzicas.5819  Canada sent over 500m USD of russian money to Ukraine for infrastructure repair. Even personal oligarchs accounts have been seized.

  3. Yet 88% of global trade is in USD.

  4. Yeah, yeah, now give back the north west passage you stole, and apologise for the Windsor White noise.

  5. Lol Brazil and South Africa have pretty much left brics. russia has become a Chinese vasal state.

  6. Keep telling yourself that. Meanwhile the world will continue to do 88% of trade in USD.

  7. Interesting since Brazil and South Africa have been giving russia the cold sholder since 2022.

  8.  @praveenspike  lol, the same country that created the food shortage in the first place. russia should pull its troops out of africa and stop exploiting the continent for minerals and hydrocarbons. Leave Yemen, Syria, Mali, Sudan, Libya, Eritrea, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Central Africa, and Madagascar. russia needs to stop their colonial exploitation of others if they want to be taken seriously. There's a reason russia has only 6 countries that support them in the U.N, and not 1 is a BRICS member. BRICS is falling apart not expanding. There's a reason why most of Asia, and South America vote with Ukraine in the U.N.

  9.  @praveenspike  russia had invaded all those countries in the past 10 years. The federation never had Poland or Ukraine. We're not talking about history here, all those countries have been exploited by russia recently, most still have russian troops exploiting their resources.

  10.  @praveenspike  275k in Iraq and Afghanistan but interesting inflation. You want to know how many were lost in Chechnya twice, Georgia twice, Dagistan, Transnistrea, Abkhazia, South Ossetia, East Prigorodny, North Alania, Tajikistan, North Caucuses, Excetera. russua has easily put down over a million civilians since 1991.

  11.  @praveenspike  yeah, russia is still up like 5 to 1. Last 10 years alone russia has meddled with half of Africa.

  12.  @praveenspike  Patrick Lancaster is a well known putin asset. Go read the UN OHCHR report or watch a perun video.

  13.  @praveenspike  crypto, the tanking currency russia is desperately trying to recreate to refulate? Look at the sonnenfeld reports. russian economy is in the tank. Probably why India agreed to sanctions against russia.

  14.  @praveenspike  actually I'm Canadian, i can tell you are an Indian nationalists though. Based on your idea of supremacy.

  15.  @praveenspike  why attach India to a sinking ship? Does India prefer to be with russia, Belarus, and North Korea, or would you rather work with everyone else 🤔
    1
  16.  @praveenspike  lol, when did west attack India? If you really want to chain yourself to a sinking ship go ahead. russian economy has shrunk and has little value for India. There's a reason they announced they are following the oil price cap. In the end working with dozens of nations is better then working with 1 large baren land. Don't forget how the west helped India get the land back from china lost in 1962.

  17. Why that random date*

  18.  @buravan1512  Well I remember August 1991. The failed coup and dissolution of the evil empire. World rejoiced that day.

  19. Probably because China keeps trying to challenge the US

  20. Lol In 2030 russia won't be relevant. Euro and Japanese Yen have way more potential. India China and Saudi Arabia are too corrupt to compete.

  21.  @michaelmcgarrity6987  the price of LNG already went below pre war levels. I haven't seen anyone ditching the dollar or Euro. Keep dreaming though.

  22.  @michaelmcgarrity6987  LNG has 40% less emissions and has 600 times the energy density. A little LNG goes a long way. The price has gone down if you'd bother to actually check. It stabilised last year after the LNG terminals opened in December. Lol, or keep living in your special little fantasy where the west is reeling. Now excuse my while I decide to have duck or elk for dinner 🍽 Price is 2 to 5 times higher you say, then its 10 times higher. Do you pull random numbers from a hat, or spin a wheel,

  23.  @michaelmcgarrity6987  uh huh, I'm sure your an LNG expert and totally not some random dude pretending to know what he's talking about. Energy prices have been down since December when the first terminal opened and the price cap went into effect. Recently even India announced it was following the oil price cap. People in Europe aren't freezing or going hungry like it says in russian news. Granted thanks to covid, china's economic policies, and the war, inflation has gone up globally

  24. At the rate bitcoin keeps dropping I'm not sure any other currency will give you scarcity like bitcoin will 😉

  26. The national debt is essentially a low interest loan. As long as the money is invested well it pays off in the end.
