BREAKING NEWS: Russia & Belarus ditching dollar trade in favor of national currencies. The Belarusian Prime Minister, Andrey Kobyakov, has called for a complete shift away from the US dollar towards national currencies in Russia-Belarus trade and price-setting. “That would be great if the entire trade turnover, as well as price-formation were set in national currencies,” Kobyakov said during the session of the Council of Ministers of the Union State of Russia and Belarus.
NOBODY WANTS YOUR AMERICAN DOLLARS. MORE AND MORE COUNTRIES DITCHING IT
“Positive trends towards the restoration of economic growth in our countries were secured in 2017 and have been reflected in results of bilateral trade. In 2017 Belarus-Russia trade rose by 23.5 percent to $32.4 billion,” he said. Russia’s Prime Minister, Dmitry Medvedev, noted that substantial proportion of mutual settlements between the countries is currently carried out in Russia's national currency.
“Last year, the parties closed some 83 percent of mutual trade deals in rubles,” Medvedev said. “That reflects complete trust to Russian national currency, and, what is most important - reduces dependence on external factors.”
The Russian Prime Minister highlighted the necessity to eliminate obstacles for mutual access for goods and services, as well as to increase the share of high technology products and export-oriented goods. Medvedev also said that the countries are planning to discuss the issue of joint traffic infrastructure.

Literally just read today about how Belarus and Russia have been part of "the Union State" since 1996. It is basically just WE WUZ SOVIET UNION. They were planning to pin the belorussian currency to the ruble for like 6 years a decade ago, but like some good 3rd world countries they just twiddled their thumbs until they gave up a decade ago. tl;dr it's not gonna happen, and even if it does, it will mean basically nothing

I understand that expanding trade outside of USD weakens American hegemony but doesn't it also fuck up globalism? Isn't the globalist plan to get everyone eventually trading with the same currency?
>40B in trade between two countries decide to use Rubles instead of USD. Literally less than 20% of Apple’s revenue.

“Price setting” never ends well. If they really do institute price controls someone is going to take it in the ass hard here. Price setting is why the Venezuelans have no toilet paper.

>“Price setting” never ends well. Are you that dumb that you don't understand what 'price setting' is referred to in this currency replacement situation?

US dollar is becoming worthless. US dollar is backed up only by brutal military force, not by any real values. More and more countries are ditching this worthless toilet paper. This is slow beginning that is getting momentum all over the World. Just watch...
US DOLLAR IS GETTING FUCKED. KEK Which countries are dumping the dollar and why? The European Union is considering switching payments from the US dollar to the euro after Washington threatened to target European firms working in Iran, according to reports. The measure may help the EU to retain one of the world's largest markets, which was opened for trade after the historic nuclear deal signed by Tehran and the P5+1 powers (China, France, Russia, UK, US, plus Germany) in June 2015.

Old Belarussian lady is asked about Lukashenko and the (((American))) opposition...then she finds out that the interview is being conducted by the opposition. This is what hardcore Nationalism-Racialism looks like:
The idea to eliminate the role of the greenback in international settlements is not new. Aside from the EU, a number of nations have been mulling the idea. RT discussed with analysts how realistic the prospect of countries ditching the dollar is.
In light of the recent developments Iran is the most pressured nation to drop the dollar with Tehran having partially adjusted trade without the US currency, Alexandre Kateb, president of Competence Finance SAS, told RT.
"When Iran was previously under sanctions from 2012 to 2015, it established new mechanisms to bypass US-related financial institutions, such as barter exchange and to replace the dollar with other currencies, such as the renminbi in its bilateral trade with China or the euro in its trade with European countries," the economist said. rt.com/business/427177-who-why-dumping-us-dollar/
