BRICS is not going away. Far too many countries that are in BRICS are already trading in their own currencies. Sovereign Nations cannot and will not live in fear knowing if they upset the US they will be sanctioned. Also Russia is the world's leading natural resource giant with $75 Trillion in Natural Resources. Russia doesn’t need any other country to survive. Being in BRICS allows them to trade with other BRICS nations. Also BRICS has far greater populations than the G7 nations. Could it be that what Putin means is that Russia and the US trade in their own currencies? Just sayin.
Putin has said this. Why does Zimbabwe need to convert to USD or a euros to trade with South Africa. Makes no sense.
Putin is deflecting the blame from him, so people can't say "Russia" attacked the dollar and did this to us! Putin is playing it smart and deflecting so that another "bad guy" can be found and hopefully it is the banks that are pointed to. Putin said nothing of only using and supporting USD, it will just be another option to trade with. BRICS will probably happen, and de-dollarization is happening as a unit of trade and as a money reserve in foreign countries. Even Euro holdings are going down as smaller nations divest.
Have fun holding onto your fiat and 401k. It's too calm now and the market is flying, they can pull out their investment and crash the economy before Trump takes office. By playing it "nice" they can say they didn't do anything. This is the calm before the storm...
