Ramaswamy supports Trump and commodity-backed currency

Billionaire entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy claims BRICS is developing a gold-backed currency to replace the U.S. dollar as the world's primary reserve currency.
"This is a major problem for the United States.
This would permanently increase our borrowing cost if the dollar is no longer the established reserve currency of the world.
So yes, actually, that does matter. The right way to deal with it, though, is not to try to swat that down, but increase the value proposition of the dollar itself by pegging the dollar to hard commodities," he stated in a press conference.
Vivek Ramaswamy dropped out of the presidential race and endorsed Donald Trump. Known for supporting currencies backed by commodities, his alliance with Trump suggests a shared vision for economic stability and challenges to traditional fiat systems.

BRICS Developing Independent Financial System, Russian Envoy

BRICS countries are developing an independent financial system free from third-party dominance, according to Russian Ambassador to China, Igor Morgulov.
Speaking at the 12th World Peace Forum in Beijing, Morgulov noted the increasing volume of Russia's transactions in national currencies with other BRICS nations.
He highlighted that Russia-China trade has reached $240 billion, with 92% of settlements in rubles and yuans.
Morgulov emphasized that BRICS is moving away from dollar dominance, developing mechanisms for an independent financial system.
Although a new single currency is not imminent, the group, which now includes Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Ethiopia, Iran, and Egypt, is progressing toward this goal.
"We are leaving the dollar-dominated space and developing the mechanism and tools for a truly independent financial system," he stated by RIA Novosti.

BRICS Alternatives to SWIFT

BRICS is the acronym denoting the emerging national economies of Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa.
It is a growing eastern world alliance led by China.
In another effort to reduce their dependence on the US dollar, BRICS members have been building their own global payment infrastructures for international transactions that are independent of the US dollar and can serve as alternatives to SWIFT, the leading messaging network for financial transactions worldwide.
This allows BRICS members, especially those who are often subjects of US sanctions, to create their own rules for international banking and settlement. Moreover, by extending alternative financial infrastructure to other countries and regions, BRICS can create greater buy-in for their own system and increase their financial and political influence through this alternative system.
Some BRICS members have independently developed their own cross-border payment mechanisms in recent years.
Both Russia and China have launched their national alternatives to the SWIFT global banking network and introduced their systems to broader global markets. Source: www.cambridge.org
