Russian FM Sergey Lavrov Thinks De-Dollarization ‘Can No Longer Be Stopped’

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov referred to the current shift that international markets are taking away from the U.S. dollar in favor of national currencies.

The Americans have started the de-dollarization process. Already now this process is being analyzed particularly by American political analysts and economists with deep concern.

U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen recently assessed the possible effect that the enactment of U.S. sanctions could have over the dollar hegemony, recognizing these might have a detrimental effect on its usage. Однако, Yellen noted they tried to use these “extremely important” tools “judiciously.”

Sullivan, who was economic an economic advisor during the Trump administration, заявил that while the issuance of such a currency would not substitute the dollar overnight, it “would begin the slow erosion of its dominance.”
