Saudi Arabia to join BRICS???
    #28040156 - 11/08/22 12:15 PM (1 year, 6 months ago)

Looks like China's leader Xi Jinping is going to meet with MBS IN SAUDI ARABIA, who wants to join BRICS which is planning on starting their own reserve currency soon.  Plans for moving away from the dollar has always been a reason for the US to topple foreign governments.  Things could get interesting real soon with Saudi Arabia...

I am in a minority on the shroomery, as I frequently defend the opposing side when they have a point about something or when my side make believes something about them.  I also attack my side if I think they're wrong.  People here get very confused by that and think it means I prefer the other side.

The sooner SA gets the boot the better. We don't really need them. Let them burn their oil as they wither into the sand.

Imagine being so deluded that you believe rogue states like Saudi Arabia and Russia could have anything to do with a trusted reserve currency.

SA only exists because of their oil. The US and Europe enable this. China and India will pick up the slack when we get rid of them. In the long term they have nothing else. Their downfall is obvious. Good riddance.

Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa (Argentina, Iran, KSA maybe?)

Just the 5 existing countries represent nearly half of the global population, significantly more than the U.S.

I think it would be better to base the world’s reserve currency on something substantial (like human population) rather than the power of finance capital and the US military, but who knows.





As for Saudi Arabia joining BRICS, I don’t see it. This is leverage.

It’s impossible for Russia especially to be involved in some sort of new currency. It’s farcical.

That’s like saying the Euro can’t be trusted because Romania is in the EU.

Half the world population hasn’t cut off financial transactions with Romania

Any currency that involves Russia is DOA

Even if they had, this is the entire point of developing a reserve currency that isn’t beholden to US interests.

It’s also just a terrible time to launch a competing currency to the dollar. The dollars value as a reserve currency hasn’t been this high in decades and the US has the best economy in the world. Interest rates are finally in the Goldilocks zone. It’s just bizarre that anyone would choose this moment to challenge the dollar

In terms of economic power more than half the world has cut Russia off

I don’t think they will. China is in a much better position to play the long game, and BRICS’ future will go where China leads it. I think they know that the yuan won’t ever be the reserve currency, but they can make headway with a new, extra-national currency in an appeal towards democratic values and internationalism.

Well that’s the thing isn’t it? The powerful minority dictating policy to the majority.

A move away from that is more important to nations in South America or Africa or SE Asia than Russia’s currency manipulations. We just don’t see it like that because we sit atop this pyramid scheme.

Yeah nothing says democratic values like Russia, China and Saudi Arabia. And India is teetering on the edge of authoritarianism.

Enough of the world has cut off Russia that I am having serious trouble figuring out how to get assets out of the country.

We’re taking about money not population.

Replacing the dollar as a reserve currency isn’t in the interest of China since a lot of its own reserves are denominated in dollars
