U.S. DOLLAR COLLAPSE - FOLLOW THE MONEY

Kim Iversen

Donald Trump has claimed that dumping the US dollar will be extremely costly for foreign countries which pursue the policy, adding that they will face unprecedented import taxes for pursuing non-dollar trade.

Speaking to his supporters during a campaign rally in Wisconsin on Saturday, the former U.S. president pledged to maintain the status of the greenback as the world’s reserve currency, emphasizing that it is “under major siege” as a growing number of states have been turning to other ways of settling trades.

“I hate when countries go off the dollar. I would not allow countries to go off the dollar,” Trump pledged.

If the United States lost its status as the issuer of the global reserve currency, he argued, “that will be like losing a revolutionary war. That will be, that will be a hit to our country, just like losing a war. And we can’t let that happen”.

“Too many countries now are fighting to get off the dollar,” Trump complained.

BRICS Pushes De-Dollarization

The global de-dollarization drive has received a big boost from the BRICS bloc, of Brazil, Russia, China, India, and South Africa.

China and Russia have de-dollarized more than 90% of their bilateral trade, instead using rubles and renminbi (RMB, also known popularly as yuan).

China and Brazil signed a deal to drop the dollar in trade, settling with yuan and reais.

Russia and Iran pledged to remove the middle man of the dollar from their bilateral trade.

Even the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) has made agreements to de-dollarize regional commerce.

All of these nations are instead using their own currencies to trade with each other, bypassing the dollar.

By far the largest economy in BRICS is China, which overtook the United States as the world’s biggest economy in 2017, based on International Monetary Fund (IMF) data, with GDP measured at purchasing power parity (PPP).

Today, China is the number one trading partner of the majority of countries on Earth. In just two decades, China’s share of global trade more than tripled, from just 4% in 2001 to over 14% in 2021, according to S&P Global.

As China’s economy has rapidly grown, and as its manufacturing abilities have advanced, it has also de-dollarized its international trade.

The United Arab Emirates has sold China gas in exchange for RMB, and Saudi Arabia’s minister of industry even said the oil-producing Gulf nation would be “open” to selling crude in yuan.

According to the IMF, as of 2023, slightly over half of China’s foreign receipts and payments are conducted in its own currency, the renminbi — a staggering rise in just two decades.

During a trip to China in April 2023, Brazil’s left-wing President Lula da Silva visited the headquarters of the BRICS New Development Bank (NDB), which is located in Shanghai.

The current leader of the NDB is the former president of Brazil, Dilma Rousseff, from Lula’s leftist Workers’ Party. She has vowed to de-dollarize the NDB’s lending, offering loans in the local currencies of members.

In a fiery speech at the BRICS bank, Lula declared, “Every night I ask myself why all countries have to base their trade on the dollar”.

To enthusiastic applause from fellow BRICS members, the Brazilian leader asked, “Why can’t we do trade based on our own currencies?”
