I’ve not paid shut consideration to the main points of the sanctions Washington has imposed on Russia and on different nations that take care of Russia in sanctioned objects, which in my impression are largely army associated objects. My view has been that the sanctions have been good for Russia by forcing Russia out of the globalist lure towards self-sufficiency. The sanctions have primarily damage Europeans through increased vitality prices and misplaced enterprise alternatives. Thes sanctions additionally damage Individuals who invested in Russian oil and Russian monetary devices. These investments are actually carried on US monetary statements at zero worth.
A report from the Hal Turner Radio Present despatched to me from a reader in Europe claims that Financial institution of Russia official Vladimir Chistyukhin has concluded that Washington’s new sanctions have drastically expanded and now lower off each nation from the greenback system whose banks course of Russian funds. In different phrases, Washington is making an attempt to stop Russia from partaking in any worldwide transaction besides maybe these by which funds are made by the bodily switch of gold, as such funds could be made outdoors the banking system. Allegedly, Chistyukhin sees the expanded sanctions as Washington’s effort to destroy Russia by destroying the Russian financial system. It does appear like Washington’s effort to eradicate the import/export portion of the Russian financial system.
In accordance with Hal Turner’s report, banks in Turkey, the United Arab Emirates, and China, afraid of being lower off from the funds system, have stopped processing Russian funds. However how can such a scheme work? How can Chinese language banks refuse to course of funds to and from Russia when China is dependent upon Russian vitality? How can Indian banks refuse to course of funds when India is dependent upon Russian vitality and weapon techniques? Such sanctions would cease the export of Russian wheat and impose starvation, even hunger, on many. Consider all the companies in lots of nations whose operations can be disrupted, maybe inflicting their chapter. It’s tough to think about the world going together with this. These sanctions, if actual, additionally appear to be a provocation too massive for Putin to disregard.
I stay puzzled why Russia, China, and the BRICS haven’t been proactive and extricated themselves from the greenback system. China, for instance, can’t adjust to these sanctions and retain Chinese language sovereignty. If China, India, et.al., adjust to Washington, they may have accepted Washington’s hegemony.
Maybe it’s resistance to coming to phrases with actuality that has prevented a majority of the world sick of Washington’s bullying from collectively exiting the greenback system, allotting with all financial contact with the West, and confining their commerce to their bloc. As an alternative of permitting Washington to isolate Russia, why doesn’t the Kremlin manage the isolation of Washington and its NATO puppets? I’ve by no means understood why the Kremlin needs to provide vitality to nations with whom Russia is at conflict.
Good management is the rarest of all issues. Maybe the world hasn’t sufficient of it to flee Washington’s grasp.
If the newest sanctions are efficient in the way in which Washington apparently intends, Washington could have pushed the world nearer to nuclear conflict. It’s arduous to imagine {that a} nation as nicely armed as Russia will sit there and let Washington destroy its financial prospects and endanger its nationwide existence.
