Russia’s Plans to Replace the Dollar Are Going Nowhere

BRICS countries show little interest in Moscow’s proposal for an alternative financial system.

Browsing through the official photos of the annual BRICS summit in the Russian city of Kazan last month yields intriguing surprises. In several of them, Russian President Vladimir Putin holds a mock-up banknote featuring the flags of the five core BRICS countries—Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa. Looking at the pictures, one could be forgiven for assuming that the BRICS had just launched a common currency. This is exactly what Moscow would like the world to think as part of its bid to demonstrate that Russia is far from isolated on the global scene.

Why don’t you lay down your keyboard, man up and go fight for your beloved fUKRaine? They need you... the boots on the ground are deserting in droves, I hear.

Was there actually any such attempt?

There’s surely be plenty of beforehand press releases, coordination, fanfare and details of any upcoming event.

Perhaps a ‘goal’ would be more of an honest charaterization.

“Russia’s Plans to Replace the Dollar Are Going Nowhere”

As if it’s “Russia’s plan”. It’s actually the plan of the leaders of 80% of the world’s population. And if they want it, it will happen.

"...five core BRICS countries—Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa..."

85-90% of America's pharmaceuticals come from those two crapholes, and millions will dies if they cut our supply off.
