Whoa.....What a Surprise! Who would have thought? It's only talk right now but would change so much if it comes to pass.

This story isn’t just about currency, it could signal a major pivot point in global economics and geopolitics. According to an internal Kremlin memo reviewed by Bloomberg, Russia is considering a return to the U.S. dollar settlement system as part of a broader economic cooperation proposal for the Trump administration and a dramatic reversal of years of efforts to move away from dollar dependency after sanctions and global pressure.

For more than a decade, Russia has pursued alternatives to the dollar deepening trade in yuan, ruble, and other local currencies with China, India, and BRICS partners as a hedge against U.S. financial dominance and sanctions risk. A pivot back to the dollar system would mark an astonishing shift from that strategy. 

The memo reportedly outlines seven areas of potential cooperation between Moscow and Washington beyond currency including joint investments in fossil fuels, natural gas, offshore oil, and critical raw materials that could benefit U.S. companies and incentivize renewed economic ties.

If this proposal gains traction, the implications are huge: It could strengthen the dollar’s dominance at a time many expected de-dollarization to accelerate. It could reshape energy and commodities markets if Russia and the U.S. partner on resource extraction and export ventures. It might slow momentum within BRICS for local currency trade if one of its biggest members appears to reverse course. It could also signal a political angle tied to efforts to end the Ukraine conflict using financial incentives as part of a broader peace negotiation package.

But there are still big hurdles. Re-entry into the dollar system would likely require sanctions relief and major policy shifts from both sides and simply “discussing” the idea is very different from executing it. This potential turn in global finance throws decades of strategic realignment and economic diplomacy into a new light: Are we seeing the start of a recalibration of power or just another geopolitical bargaining chip?

Wow! Another surprise!

BREAKING: President Trump has summoned Presidents Milei, Santiago Peña, Rodrigo Paz, Bukele, Tito Asfura, and Daniel Noboa to a Presidential Summit in Miami on March 7, to form a regional bloc that stops the communist China offensive in America.
