SOME of the TALKING POINTS:
- Visa and Mastercard has been replaced by the Union card sounds like a good move to me of course based on the Chinese currency and the Chinese financial mechanisms is that the shape of things to come?
- They've excluded Russia from the SWIFT system the inter-bank settlement system as they previously did for example with Iran as an economic sanction, do you think this kind of move is going to work?
- If Iran, Russia, china are already using a new and parallel system of financial exchange will other countries join that? Will India join it? Will Brazil join it? Venezuela? There are many places in the South and in the East that could do with getting out from under the Dollar hegemony?
- Is this the beginning of the end of Dollar hegemony or to paraphrase Mr Churchill is it merely the end of the beginning?
- This conflict's not just a military one - is it - it's an economic war. If you agree with me how did we end up here?
- This economic war want to end up causing damage to all parties to the conflict perhaps the European economies most of all?
- Russia's insistence on being paid in Rubles for example, for its energy, is that going to change everything?
