De-Dollarisation.

[cufflinks]

Continued:

Senior Chinese officials have also tried to influence business leaders to encourage them to condemn our trade actions, leveraging their desire to maintain their operations in China. In one recent example, China threatened to deny a business license for a major U.S. corporation if they refused to speak out against our administration’s policies.

And when it comes to influencing the midterms, you need only look at Beijing’s tariffs in response to ours. The tariffs imposed by China to date specifically targeted industries and states that would play an important role in the 2018 election. By one estimate, more than 80 percent of U.S. counties targeted by China voted for President Trump and I in 2016; now China wants to turn these voters against our administration.

And China is also directly appealing to the American voters. Last week, the Chinese government paid to have a multipage supplement inserted into the Des Moines Register –- the paper of record of the home state of our Ambassador to China, and a pivotal state in 2018 and 2020. The supplement, designed to look like the news articles, cast our trade policies as reckless and harmful to Iowans.

Fortunately, Americans aren’t buying it. For example, American farmers are standing with this President and are seeing real results from the strong stands that he’s taken, including this week’s U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement, where we’ve substantially opened North American markets to U.S. products. The USMCA is a great win for American farmers and American manufacturers. (Applause.)

But China’s actions aren’t focused solely on influencing our policies and politics. Beijing is also taking steps to exploit its economic leverage, and the allure of their large marketplace, to advance its influence over American businesses.

Beijing now requires American joint ventures that operate in China to establish what they call “party organizations” within their company, giving the Communist Party a voice –- and perhaps a veto -– in hiring and investment decisions.

Chinese authorities have also threatened U.S. companies that depict Taiwan as a distinct geographic entity, or that stray from Chinese policy on Tibet. Beijing compelled Delta Airlines to publicly apologize for not calling Taiwan a “province of China” on its website. And it pressured Marriott to fire a U.S. employee who merely liked a tweet about Tibet.

And Beijing routinely demands that Hollywood portray China in a strictly positive light. It punishes studios and producers that don’t. Beijing’s censors are quick to edit or outlaw movies that criticize China, even in minor ways. For the movie, “World War Z,” they had to cut the script’s mention of a virus because it originated in China. The movie, “Red Dawn” was digitally edited to make the villains North Korean, not Chinese.

But beyond business and entertainment, the Chinese Communist Party is also spending billions of dollars on propaganda outlets in the United States and, frankly, around the world.

China Radio International now broadcasts Beijing-friendly programs on over 30 U.S. outlets, many in major American cities. The China Global Television Network reaches more than 75 million Americans, and it gets its marching orders directly from its Communist Party masters. As China’s top leader put it during a visit to the network’s headquarters, and I quote, “The media run by the Party and the government are propaganda fronts and must have the Party as their surname.”

It’s for those reasons and that reality that, last month, the Department of Justice ordered that network to register as a foreign agent.

The Communist Party has also threatened and detained the Chinese family members of American journalists who pry too deep. And it’s blocked the websites of U.S. media organizations and made it harder for our journalists to get visas. This happened after the New York Times published investigative reports about the wealth of some of China’s leaders.

But the media isn’t the only place where the Chinese Communist Party seeks to foster a culture of censorship. The same is true across academia.

I mean, look no further than the Chinese Students and Scholars Association, of which there are more than 150 branches across America’s campuses. These groups help organize social events for some of the more than 430,000 Chinese nationals studying in the United States. They also alert Chinese consulates and embassies when Chinese students, and American schools, stray from the Communist Party line.

At the University of Maryland, a Chinese student recently spoke at her graduation of what she called, and I quote, the “fresh air of free speech” in America. The Communist Party’s official newspaper swiftly chastised her. She became the victim of a firestorm of criticism on China’s tightly-controlled social media, and her family back home was harassed. As for the university itself, its exchange program with China — one of the nation’s most extensive — suddenly turned from a flood to a trickle.

China exerts academic pressure in other ways, as well. Beijing provides generous funding to universities, think tanks, and scholars, with the understanding that they will avoid ideas that the Communist Party finds dangerous or offensive. China experts in particular know that their visas will be delayed or denied if their research contradicts Beijing’s talking points.

And even scholars and groups who avoid Chinese funding are targeted by that country, as the Hudson Institute found out firsthand. After you offered to host a speaker Beijing didn’t like, your website suffered a major cyberattack, originating from Shanghai. The Hudson Institute knows better than most that the Chinese Communist Party is trying to undermine academic freedom and the freedom of speech in America today.

These and other actions, taken as a whole, constitute an intensifying effort to shift American public opinion and policy away from the “America First” leadership of President Donald Trump.

But our message to China’s rulers is this: This President will not back down. (Applause.) The American people will not be swayed. And we will continue to stand strong for our security and our economy, even as we hope for improved relations with Beijing.

Our administration is going to continue to act decisively to protect America’s interests, American jobs, and American security.

As we rebuild our military, we will continue to assert American interests across the Indo-Pacific.

As we respond to China’s trade practices, we will continue to demand an economic relationship with China that is free, fair, and reciprocal. We will demand that Beijing break down its trade barriers, fulfill its obligations, fully open its economy — just as we have opened ours.

We’ll continue to take action against Beijing until the theft of American intellectual property ends once and for all. And we will continue to stand strong until Beijing stops the predatory practice of forced technology transfer. We will protect the private property interests of American enterprise. (Applause.)

And to advance our vision of a free and open Indo-Pacific, we’re building new and stronger bonds with nations that share our values across the region, from India to Samoa. Our relationships will flow from a spirit of respect built on partnership, not domination.

We’re forging new trade deals on a bilateral basis, just as last week President Trump signed an improved trade deal with South Korea. And we will soon begin historic negotiations for a bilateral free-trade deal with Japan. (Applause.)

I’m also pleased to report that we’re streamlining international development and finance programs. We’ll be giving foreign nations a just and transparent alternative to China’s debt-trap diplomacy. In fact, this week, President Trump will sign the BUILD Act into law.

Next month, it will be my privilege to represent the United States in Singapore and Papua New Guinea, at ASEAN and APEC. There, we will unveil new measures and programs to support a free and open Indo-Pacific. And on behalf of the President, I will deliver the message that America’s commitment to the Indo-Pacific has never been stronger. (Applause.)

Closer to home, to protect our interests, we’ve recently strengthened CFIUS — the Committee on Foreign Investment — heightening our scrutiny of Chinese investment in America to protect our national security from Beijing’s predatory actions.

And when it comes to Beijing’s malign influence and interference in American politics and policy, we will continue to expose it, no matter the form it takes. We will work with leaders at every level of society to defend our national interests and most cherished ideals. The American people will play the decisive role — and, in fact, they already are.

As we gather here, a new consensus is rising across America. More business leaders are thinking beyond the next quarter, and thinking twice before diving into the Chinese market if it means turning over their intellectual property or abetting Beijing’s oppression. But more must follow suit. For example, Google should immediately end development of the “Dragonfly” app that will strengthen Communist Party censorship and compromise the privacy of Chinese customers. (Applause.)

It’s also great to see more journalists reporting the truth without fear or favor, digging deep to find where China is interfering in our society, and why. And we hope that American and global news organizations will continue to join this effort on an increasing basis.

More scholars are also speaking out forcefully and defending academic freedom, and more universities and think tanks are mustering the courage to turn away Beijing’s easy money, recognizing that every dollar comes with a corresponding demand. And we’re confident that their ranks will grow.

And across the nation, the American people are growing in vigilance, with a newfound appreciation for our administration’s actions and the President’s leadership to reset America’s economic and strategic relationship with China. Americans stand strong behind a President that’s putting America first.

And under President Trump’s leadership, I can assure you, America will stay the course. China should know that the American people and their elected officials in both parties are resolved.

As our National Security Strategy states: We should remember that “Competition does not always mean hostility,” nor does it have to. The President has made clear, we want a constructive relationship with Beijing where our prosperity and security grow together, not apart. While Beijing has been moving further away from this vision, China’s rulers can still change course and return to the spirit of reform and opening that characterize the beginning of this relationship decades ago. The American people want nothing more; and the Chinese people deserve nothing less.

The great Chinese storyteller Lu Xun often lamented that his country, and he wrote, “has either looked down at foreigners as brutes, or up to them as saints,” but never “as equals.” Today, America is reaching out our hand to China. And we hope that soon, Beijing will reach back with deeds, not words, and with renewed respect for America. But be assured: we will not relent until our relationship with China is grounded in fairness, reciprocity, and respect for our sovereignty. (Applause.)

There is an ancient Chinese proverb that reads, “Men see only the present, but heaven sees the future.” As we go forward, let us pursue a future of peace and prosperity with resolve and faith. Faith in President Trump’s leadership and vision, and the relationship that he has forged with China’s president. Faith in the enduring friendship between the American people and the Chinese people. And Faith that heaven sees the future — and by God’s grace, America and China will meet that future together.

Wiz, Normally when Cufflinks posts an entire article from another source he is rather careful about posting sources, unlike you. In fact Cuffy is quoting from an earlier article that he noted, yes he should have noted the source again. You play loose and fast with intellectual theft. One can recognize the syntax quite easily in different posters writing style.

But it is amazing how you will denegrate/dismiss those who do not share your racist hatred for anything Jewish or what sometimes you call a Zionist, often you will label that they are a troll or some one ignorant in your opinion. Yes Jewish interests have an (unfortunate) strong power grip on American politics. But there are far greater interests on the chess board ~ this you fail to see.   

Yes China wants to be a global player but like the United States, China has fatal internal flaws. The same can be said for the EU and Russia. So the international economy will move along slowly balancing and a more equal distribution of international use of funds and payments will slowly emerge.

But let me ask you this which World Power in the future would you like to see lead the world: America, China, the EU or Russia.* In other words would you like to see a Democracy/Republic, a dictatorship, a dysfunctional bunch of nitwits or a Economic Mafia be the future leaders of the world order? They all want to be in the game. Let me refresh your memory because you seem to have lost some, if it was not for assistance from America, a Democracy/Republic, during a couple wars you would not be speaking Greek or English today.

This is my concern. You guys think USA leadership is bad just wait to see what happens when the world has no leadership. This will not all happen over night it will take a number of years. But the next recession appears to be ready to happen soon.

Russia by 2050 or so may turn out to be a power house. As global warm takes effect, deserts get much larger, and oil is no longer used, Russia maybe an important place where food is grown. The planet should be two degrees C warmer by then. It appears polar areas will see the most warming.

Oh By the way, The globalist have an immigration limiting plan. When the USA and Europe are poor enough, the immigrates will go home.

1) In your effort to defend Cufflinks mistake, at the same time finding the opportunity to pop a shot at me, you are a hideous Liar because despite your covering up, still admit his mistake. Your behaviour it’s not only despicable but also amazing that you have the guts to accuse me for intellectual theft, without any evidence. Of course that kind of behaviour is typical of your tripe and that is what I don’t like about you.

You definitely have not much to offer to any of our discussion over here apart from a couple of lines with indifferent text to cover your daily Trolling post count for your bosses in Haifa. You are just a sad ANONYMOUS internet non person, pretending to be married and you are NOBODY. My self and other serious posters, have the guts to show or have showed our Real faces and for that I have to respect Moby but not you!

2) I avoid talking or criticising the only official terrorist state in the world, Israhell, because ignorant and nut cases like you have the guts to call me falsely Anti-Semite and I have to correct their fraudulent expression. 

The Jewish interests have not only strong power grip on American politics, the  President and government, MSN but also are milking the USA like a Dutch Cow.


3) “Yes China wants to be a global player but like the United States, China has fatal internal flaws. The same can be said for the EU and Russia.”

So the only real democracy is the USA

China like it or not, it it’s a world power. In 2016 its population was 1.379 billion and the USA was only 319.million, EU 508 million and Russia only 144 million despite it’s the largest country of the world but then you only count a country as a superpower if they have atomic missiles…. Like the terrorist state of Israhell…. Do you include also N. Korea too?

4) None of these countries it’s a real Democracy and I don’t expect any one of them to become one. Best scenario is to live and trade peacefully but energy and other trading interests will always give reason for disputes. Take a look how China has invaded other countries, especially in Africa and both benefit!

As about American help to my country after the WWII sorry to disappoint you but the USA and the UK only supplied arms, planes etc to the fascist German collaborators during the occupation and helped them take, again, power and win the civil war. The British, actually Churchill instigated the civil War to impose the exiled King and when they run out of money the Americans took over, continued and my country ever since has been fcuked Royally and never recovered.

Long story but the wounds are still open and now Trump had 1 American Base in Crete/Greece and now….. the Fascist Tsipra Government agreed to let them have 6 new bases. It must be for our own good and not for the US to control and steal the energy findings in the sea surrounding Greece.

As they say in England... pull the other one!

China: Rise, Fall and Re-Emergence as a Global Power

 

Interesting how those who have been raised on their Island Asylum with visions of past Imperial Empire Glory spew such open hatred and contempt for their once subjugated and oppressed colony which is now the beacon to all free-thinking innovators across the Globe including 450,000 current Communist Chinese University Students - an intentional invasion of knowledge transfer agents that is backfiring because most want to stay and enjoy what freedoms we have left including freedoms of thought, speech and large familes if they so desire... 

The MYTH of Mainland Red Communist Chinese omnipotence is just that a MYTH built on a clay foundation.  Wizzers knee-jerk intensely personal attacks and refusal to discuss any of the Salient facts in Jim Rickards report or more importantly Vice President Mike Pence's well researched and thought out speech about Communist Red China's true aims and ultimate goals is a neon flashing sign of an anti-intellect.   As for cut and paste Google is censoring info as fast as it can update its algo-bots so I shared the full text so that and intelligent discussion can take place.

Having worked in Warrington in 2004 I gained a love of the British way of life (Before the Islamo-Saharian Anglo-Saxon-Celtic-Nordic population replacement invasions) And I learned about the British Islanders need and desire for a Global perspective and replacement of the ancient political colonies with a modern Global Finance and Risk management empire that allows any sort of major infrastructure including advanced telecoms and interwebs developments to occur and without which their British Commonwealth of Nations would not be able to function in the Modern World...  I appreciate the UK Global perspective even if often wrapped up in the legendary British Air of Superiority as their perspective is not necessarily wrapped up in the USA Globalists media criteria and controlled agenda.

Anyone wants to engage on the substance of the facts please do - for those who want to intimidate, disparage and attack go take a Wiz and avatar off.

Wiz is so hostile, insular, ignorant and unwilling to engage on substance that it lowers the effective knowledge sharing efficacy of RUA.

Dear Billy,

if you had invested in Euros since it's inception - would you be better off keeping you money in USD ?

You know the answer - despite all the issues there's been with EU nations defaulting

I'm not suggesting this is down to de-dollarisation - in fact I AM suggesting there are those who actively sought a fall in the USD's value

FYI I subscribe to a number of premium newsletters including a Lifetime Subscription to Jim Rickards Strategic Intelligence as Jim is locked into both IBM and the DoD and intelligence communities for his Financial Warfare Offense and Defense skills so good to keep up on his predictions and sense of which way the Global political and financial markets winds are blowing - premium paid subscription newsletters only provide links to the newsletter articles behind quite expensive paywalls... LOL if the Wizzer had to click through one of those he would accuse me of being an affiliate marketing shill... reminds me...

I have another Greek Acquaintance with USA-Greek Dual Citizenship - his mom was Greek American his dad 100% Greek who was a marketing exec with a major global Tobacco Company and upon his passing left him a Fidelity account that had grown to over $400K USD and he finally softened his rabid Socialist Anarchists verbal Trump hating bomb-throwing upon becoming financially comfortable - Wiz could be one of his long lost Greek Socialist Anarchy Uncles only on the poor side of the family.

Cuffinks

As we know nothing about you and your personal circumstances, in my view, you are nothing more than an anonymous person hiding behind an assumed name and nothing more.

You can claim whatever you like about yourself but still means nothing to us.

Some of us who have the balls and don't hide behind anonymity, have posted lots of information about our selves and our endeavour finding a woman of another nationality and culture and after many visits we go married to them.

When we joined these board most of us had the same aspirations but as the MOB gone out of fashion......we ended talking about politics and the US empire. Most of us do it out of habit.......others to fill a void in their life....... as about you, what shall we make out?  ........ fill the gap your self.

Personally I have been in the travel business for too many years to remember, now I am an old age pensioner and plenty of free time in my hands.

When I was in business, I managed to earn enough money to support their education and my two sons, both finished University.

The oldest managed to get a PhD in electronics/software and moved to California....... and the younger acquired two Master  Diploma's in Economics and Land management. Today he is married and is working in the CIty of London Banking system.

While running my own business... I learned a lot in investing money and many other things. I still like to keep an eye on the financial sector...... of the economy and mostly occupy my days with either cooking, looking after our garden or booking holidays for us to travel. My Russian wife studied in England, after she arrived here and get's out of the house for few days.....to earn her shopping pennies.

FYI I have learned in my life never to underestimate anybody who I don't know much about him/her and that is how I managed to survive.

Enough said and bear that in mind.

2nd of all get laid or get some meds for your anger issues, I suggest also taking large amounts of Magnesium with Calcium it works wonders to calm the mind. A good B vitamin complex is also good for nerves/ anger issues.

Now here’s a news flash, none of us Americans posting here can control US foreign policy, I’m not even sure if the President of the USA can control the rogue agents of the CIA; it’s a monster.

Stop venting your hatred of the US, we have zero influence here. Write some letters to the US President, to Sec of State Pompeo, etc.

The lack of nicotine it's not causing me any loss of memory or any harm as you point out but on the contrary has sharpen my memory and the problem is on your side, because you don't like me remind you and your co-patriots about all the charitable actions around the world by your Governments during the past 80 years.

I can assure you that all systems are in full working order on my old body and things improving daily from my mild cold.... and I have no intention following your advice to use any supplements.

I am sure you are missing the point, that I have made yesterday on another post. This board and other one's before were the places to visit to ask for advice, discuss and exchange ideas about our international adventure in finding a woman on another country, mostly in the FSU. For all us, the European old timers, it was obvious the different approach by the US members and the others from other parts of the world.

For the US members the views and attitude was similar to ordering a Pizza delivery where the European one's we were treating this adventure more seriously. The latest example on this board was/is the case of the "mad professor"!

Of course the Europeans had always an advantage due to the proximity to the FSU.

Well now we mostly talk American politics therefore be prepared to hear different points of views against the action of your own Government.

BTW I just read this morning that even Trump complaints against the Zionist FED and their games with the interests, so why I should not criticize what I don't like from the actions of your government ?

If the deep Zionist state who is running your country does not listen to your complaints, of course I don't expect they will listen to my criticism.

Now here’s a news flash, none of us Americans posting here can control US foreign policy, I’m not even sure if the President of the USA can control the rogue agents of the CIA; it’s a monster.

Stop venting your hatred of the US, we have zero influence here. Write some letters to the US President, to Sec of State Pompeo, etc.

Please come back and inform us, no doubt they will listen to you.   

The lack of nicotine it's not causing me any loss of memory or any harm as you point out but on the contrary has sharpen my memory and the problem is on your side, because you don't like me remind you and your co-patriots about all the charitable actions around the world by your Governments during the past 80 years.

I can assure you that all systems are in full working order on my old body and things improving daily from my mild cold.... and I have no intention following your advice to use any supplements.

I am sure you are missing the point, that I have made yesterday on another post. This board and other one's before were the places to visit to ask for advice, discuss and exchange ideas about our international adventure in finding a woman on another country, mostly in the FSU. For all us, the European old timers, it was obvious the different approach by the US members and the others from other parts of the world.

For the US members the views and attitude was similar to ordering a Pizza delivery where the European one's we were treating this adventure more seriously. The latest example on this board was/is the case of the "mad professor"!

Of course the Europeans had always an advantage due to the proximity to the FSU.

Well now we mostly talk American politics therefore be prepared to hear different points of views against the action of your own Government.

BTW I just read this morning that even Trump complaints against the Zionist FED and their games with the interests, so why I should not criticize what I don't like from the actions of your government ?

If the deep Zionist state who is running your country does not listen to your complaints, of course I don't expect they will listen to my criticism. 

 

Yes I’m sure the European gentlemen have an advantage in trying to date and possibly marry those Eastern women. I’m happy to just look around locally.

Your last statement is key in regards to the rest of your post. Congress is really where there might have been a stand against such narrow and tyrannical interests but they’re all afraid of going against the status quo.

We had 80 years of your wonderful Democratic leadership.

It helps to know what the countries you have invaded and destroyed think about you! try and read some foreign sites...... and learn.

Thanks you

 

Wiz new flash, During the last 80 year the standard of living of the around world has increase like it has never done so before. Some of this increase is likely to be undone when the west falls. Why are you so hell bent on wanting so much death and destruction everywhere. I think maybe you need professional help.
 

For the USA people and the large multinational companies yes it is true but try and tell the same comments to all those countries you invaded, pillaged and the million of innocent people you killed to impose your style of "Democracy".

 

TEXAN and Cofedearte

Today I watched the program, WATCHING THE HAWKS,  on RT THATis that is produced in the US and I am sure you will not like what they published.

Take a look and hear the truth from American Journalists. about your country and its international policies.  If you still believe you are a Democratic country.... think again especially after the latest episode with the Saudi friends and their actions in Turkey!

All your Governments after WWII were Bloody hypocrites
international gangsters and murdere's.

The Samson Option: Israel's Nuclear Arsenal & American Foreign Policy
by Seymour Hersh

The Samson Option explodes one of the world's most closely guarded secrets—the secret of Israel's atomic arsenal. It relates, for the first time, the political, diplomatic, and military repercussions that have for decades been concealed from the world.

It is also about America's ability not to see what it does not want to see. All American presidents since John F. Kennedy have turned a blind eye toward Israel's growing nuclear capacity while paying lip service to the goal of nuclear nonproliferation.

In The Samson Option, Seymour M. Hersh, the Pulitzer Prize-winner who wrote the first account of the My Lai massacre in South Vietnam, reveals one of the classic clandestine operations of our time: Israel's spectacular underground nuclear facility in the Negev Desert, where its technicians and scientists began manufacturing nuclear warheads in the late 1960s. It describes the bitter infighting within the Israeli government over the bomb and its huge cost. It tells how the money for me nuclear program was raised abroad, and how the early technology was acquired with the aid of France. And it shows how and when Israel threatened to use its nuclear power.

The Samson Option reveals many startling events that played a secret and significant role in the history of our times from the early 1960s through the Gulf War:

•   How, in the late 1970s, Israel not only stole reconnaissance intelligence from our most secret of satellites, the KH-11, but used that data to help target the Soviet Union;

•   How Jonathan Pollard, the American spy now serving a life sentence in jail, was a key figure in Israel's nuclear program (and how some of Pollard's intelligence was turned over to the Soviet Union at the express direction of Yitzhak Shamir, the Israeli prime minister);

•   How Israel created a false control room at the nuclear reactor at Dimona to give U.S. inspectors the false impression that the facility was solely for research;

•   How the Eisenhower administration made a concerted last-ditch effort in December 1960 to force Israel to acknowledge its nuclear ambitions—and failed;

•   How Israel threatened Henry Kissinger and Richard Nixon with the use of nuclear weapons on the third day of the 1973 Yom Kippur War, successfully blackmailing the White House to airlift much needed supplies;

•   How South Africa cooperated with Israel to create a mysterious 1979 "flash" in the South Atlantic, actually a test of an Israeli-South African nuclear artillery shell;

•   How Israel used a top London newspaper editor to help catch Mordecai Vanunu, its nuclear traitor;

•   How a prominent American Jewish Democratic party fund-raiser also raised money for the Israeli bomb—and was able to intervene repeatedly at the White House; and

•   How the American intelligence community was finally able to learn what Israel was doing at Dimona—though it was understood that no one's career would be enhanced by providing such intelligence to the White House.

The Samson Option is ultimately a narrative of how the bomb influenced the diplomatic relations between Israel and America far more than was seen or understood by the press and the public. It shows that, in every sense, Israel was born a nuclear power. Since its founding, some of its leaders, including David Ben-Gurion and Ernst David Bergmann—the little-known scientist who was the father of the Israeli bomb—were determined that no future enemy would be able to carry out another Holocaust. Just as Samson brought down the temple and killed himself along with his enemies, so would Israel destroy those who sought its destruction.

The message of The Samson Option is stark: The next Middle East war might very well be nuclear.

Venezuela has declared they no longer accept dollars on foreign trade with the V. government. Euro is the new magic word.

[msmoby]

Like THAT is going to help a regime that has screwed up big time

[msmoby]

Quoting from zeroclue.com  isn't going to change the fact that the biggest promoter of de-dollarisation is the wack-job in the White House

Who would that be?

It is certainly true that the sanctions, treaty breaking, and threats, emanating from the White House and government are providing an enhanced stimulus to the rest of the world to set up systems that are less affected by those actions.

Strangely enough, I am coming to the opinion that this is conscious, but unable to be spoken about. In the longer term it is not a bad idea to move toward a multi polar world where the ability of the US to impose its will through monetary manipulation is significantly reduced. His stated goal of removing all tariffs is a sound one and he is succeeding in moving the world in that direction.

Removing the status of the US Dollar as preeminent reserve currency is better done sooner rather than later. The big concern must be the reaction of the US to these changes because there is very strong opposition to such a path.
