US Dollar USD to Russian Rouble RUB exchange rate history
That has absolutely nothing to do with knocking the dollar off as the global reserve currency. No one anywhere is stating that the Rouble is going to become a reserve currency. There are massive advantages to having the reserve currency in dollars for the US and we do not want to lose those advantages. it would have a very adverse effect on our economy.
 
Nice rant.
But since we don´t know what he did to Ukraine, your other stuff does not appear to be credible.

We don't? Didn't you mean to say you didn't? Why don't you open your eyes, unplug your ears and look at what Putin has done to the people in Ukraine? Do you remember what Stalin did? He purposely starved over 9 million people to death. They were from Ukraine. What about what Putin has done to journalists who opposed him? What do you think about that? Playing by the rules? No? Explain.
The West knew that elections would not change anthying in his favor.
When the western incited and supported Nazis took over Kiev and toppled the government, Russia occupied the Crimea in favor of the population that voted to belong to Russia. So what has Russia done wrong?

Wrong question. What haven't they done wrong? Mass murder, mass starvation, communist leaders that treated their own people with brutality unspeakable! Learn the true history of what they did to the people of Ukraine! Watch this video.


During the winter of 1932 and 1933 in the span of one year the Soviets systematically starved to death 7 million men, women and children Ukraine . Some estimate the total number over 9 million souls perishing by the time it was over.

Putin isnt the 1933 soviets and any deeds of the soviets cannot wipe off the fact that the Crimea people feel Russian.

That does not change the fact that Russia invaded a sovereign nation and is now holding it.

It also does not change the fact that this is the second time it has done so in the last ten years.

A sovereign nation or a recently installed western puppet regime? The Crimea people are happy with it, so what´s the problem?

I don't think you can make the assertion that the Crimea people are happy with it. The vote was held under the direct supervision of Russia's military and the press is being controlled by the same.

Crimea did not ask Russia to come and take the area over - Russia rolled in and did it on their own and claims that is what they want and has continually lied about what is occurring there and why they moved into the region. You can have issue with what the US did over there (I do as well) - it does not justify Russia's actions though.


The ultimate problem is that Russia is going around conquering other nations now and that is a serious problem for the stability of the world.

The referendum was fair and true. The West just does not like the result and this is why it falsely blames it.
 
Currency Wars – Russia and Netherlands Central Banks Buy 30.34 Tonnes Gold In December
By GoldCore Research / January 27, 2015

Russia and surprisingly the Netherlands were the largest central bank buyers in December – accumulating a significant 30.34 tonnes between them as currency wars intensify.
The Netherlands, which has the ninth-biggest gold reserves, raised its bullion holdings for the first time in 16 years. It added 9.61 tonnes to bring total gold reserves to 622.08 tonnes.

Russia raised its gold reserves for a ninth straight month in December as the country continued its multi month gold buying spree, adding to the fifth-biggest gold holdings in the world, data from the IMF showed yesterday.

Russia continues to dollar cost average into gold and increased its bullion holdings by another hefty 20.73 tonnes to 1,208.23 tonnes in December.

Is Russia in US' oil trap, or US in Russia's gold trap? Here is a very interesting article.

Russia, United States
By Dmitry KALINICHENKO (Russia

Despite numerous success reports in the style of Fox News and CNN, today, Western economy, led by the United States is in Putin’s trap, the way out of which no one in the West can see or find. And the more the West is trying to escape from this trap, the more stuck it becomes.
http://orientalreview.org/2014/12/25/grandmaster-putins-trap/

Only way to halt military aggression is via diplomacy or more severe military response. Putin knows we wont do anything militarily, and even if we did given our recent performance against goat herders and kids with rifles and RPGs, the Russians have nothing to fear. We sabre-rattled to Syria and backed down. And they don't have a nuclear arsenal comparable to our own.

We need to accept the reality that the US isn't a superpower any more. We're just one of the fellas on the block posturing and puffing out our chests trying to impress our fellows.

Isn't a superpower anymore?

No, we don't 'need to accept' that tripe because it clearly is false. The US is still the most powerful nation on the planet - both economically and militarily. That pretty much defines a superpower.
 
Russia unloads 20% of its total U.S. holdings in one month

February 21, 2015

According to a report from Zero Hedge the Russians have already started unloading their dollar reserves. In the month of December alone they sold a record $22 billion in U.S. Treasurys. While this may not seem like a big number, it is over 20% of their total US dollar holdings.
