This is strange as the Russians should be able to do whatever they want as far as spend the rupees in India.

Send Gazprom or other state owned enterprises (SOEs) employees to India and give them equivalent of $5000 each and let them go buy Indian made goods and India services such as clothing, a hotel or resort stay, etc

Nope. Chinese are pulling similar shit as well.

They all want some dollar alternative system but won't stop fucking each other within it. Like the story of the Scorpion & the Crocodile crossing the river.

This is why I keep telling ppl that BRICS is PR bullshit and nothing more, really. Oh sure, they are developing their own alternative to SWIFT. So what? GIGO applies here. See above.

That is why that tweet said, "..building a $ alternative is HARD".

If Japan, South Korea,Taiwan, Australia, Canada, Costa Rica and Singapore wanted to do it, fine. They would have a shot because they have the cultures and subsequent legal property protections to make it work.

But loser shitholes like China, Russia and India who fuck over foreigners everyday when it comes to FDI like rain water falls from the sky? This is worse in a lot of ways. So yes, hard. A lot hard.

So, gold or the currency of a global dominant power. Preferably one with a Navy four times the size of all the others combined, with a big chunk of the world's GDP and at least 6,000 nuclear weapons.

But...BRICS! (AND "You don't know WTF you are talking about, DATF!)

America Hating Fluffers gotta fluff. <--- That's the real reason they post shit back at me.
