"The famous currency trader and financier warned Russia and other oil-producing countries to sell their oil and price it in euros rather than US dollars, because the US dollar continues to fall against the euro.

The US dollar poses a danger to oil-producing countries and their economies, he said."

Will Russia/Putin listen? Wonder what currency Iran paid Russia for nukes?

Perhaps Soros has his pants in a bunch because he spent all that money trying to bring Bush down ... and lost big. I think he is just determined to get him. Should be in that cage with Saddam.

Oh, now he's also blaming Russia for breaking the dollar. Only an idiot can believe that. Russia has tranferred 13% of their reserve and aim at 25% to the Euro, but that amount is still less then 100 billion dollars, petty change. I don't know what Russia will do, but I'd worry more about China and Japan, they're the big time owners. What this turd is trying to do is get the oil in Euros so it will be much more expensive for us, as countries will dump the dollar to buy Euros and the market will flood, pushing the dollar value down and our interest rates up.
