The Federal government in America has officially declared China and Russia "adversaries." The United States of America is the only superpower in the world. It has many tools in its arsenal (such as the strongest army, military bases across the globe, advanced civilian & military technology, global reserve currency, and financial systems) to assert its policies. It forces almost all countries worldwide to follow its rules and regulations.
All those countries that dare to challenge US supremacy in any way will find that the deep state in the United States of America doesn't hesitate to use military and economic options to destroy them.
Right from its inception, the American army invaded many countries, killed numerous people across the globe in the name of protecting democracy and freedom and fighting terrorism, supported dictators, funded the creation of terrorist organizations, and secretly promoted Islamic terrorism around the world. As a result, countries like Cuba, Mexico, Iraq, Iran, Syria, Afghanistan, Japan, Vietnam, India, Zimbabwe, China, and Russia are the victims of the hooliganism of the US government, its intelligence agency, and its army.
America doesn't want any country to become strong and challenge its supremacy in the world. That is why it uses multiple methods to punish all those countries that develop rapidly in different sectors and try to have an independent foreign policy. The speedy development of China, India, Brazil, Russia, and South Africa severely threatens US hegemony. These days, the United States of America has launched an undeclared war against Russia and China. It is using multiple tricks to stop the natural development of these two countries and prevent them from taking the number one position in the world.
The United States of America encouraged the most corrupt country in Europe (Ukraine) to get involved in a war with Russia and cause severe damage to its economy. Soon after the commencement of the Ukraine-Russia War, the collective West imposed several rounds of economic sanctions against Russia to destroy its economy and change the current regime. Despite all these, Vladimir Putin has managed the situation smartly in his favor. The Russian economy is performing very well compared to Western economies, which are vulnerable to economic recession, hyperinflation, industrialization, mass unemployment, failure of the banking system, etc.
The United States of America is doing everything possible to stop the natural development of China and prevent it from taking its position. Recently, the US government has signed a deal with Australia to supply it with nuclear submarines and create an Asian NATO to encircle China. They also provide deadly weapons to the Philippines, Taiwan, and other neighboring countries so that they can inflict heavy damage on China should the war begin. In addition, there has been a growing call in the United States of America to ban the popular Chinese social media site TikTok just because it is a Chinese app. Again, Uncle Sam seems unhappy with China's rise as a superpower.
Despite all these hostile actions from America and other Western countries, China and Russia are working together to challenge the supremacy of the US and make this world multipolar.
Non-Dollar Trade Between Russia and China
US currency is widely used for international trade. The more American dollars a country has in its Federal Reserve, the more it is considered a stable nation. But the problem is that the American government uses the dollar's status as a weapon against all those countries that don't agree with its policies.
It never hesitates to impose economic sanctions on countries, companies, and individuals who don't obey its orders. It doesn't allow so-called hostile countries to conduct trade in dollars. That is why big countries are looking for possibilities to use other currencies for international trade. Russia is trading with China in national currencies, thus eliminating the share of US dollars in international trade. In the same way, other countries are engaging in non-dollar business. The world has realized the dangers of reliance on the US-dominated financial system.
China's Soft Diplomacy
The United States of America is more interested in increasing hostility between countries so it can sell deadly weapons to conflicting parties and make lots of money. This country needs wars and terrorism in other countries to maintain its military-industrial complex and finance its economy. Thanks to the USA, we have witnessed wars and conflicts in different parts of the world.
But China thinks differently and promotes peace and harmony between countries. Recently, Chinese President Xi Jinping facilitated talks between two bitter enemies—Iran and Saudi Arabia—and helped them normalize their relationship after several years of hostilities.
China also floated a peace proposal to stop the Ukraine-Russia war. Still, as expected, the United States of America rejected the idea, saying that China's peace plan would benefit Russia. So the world is saying that the American government is interested in adding fuel to the fire and prolonging the Ukraine-Russia war as far as possible. As a result, the USA is losing its relevance globally, and China is becoming more popular in multiple countries that love peace and prosperity.
Alternatives to SWIFT
SWIFT is a network of international banking systems controlled by America and its Western allies. Countries, people, and business organizations use this system to send money digitally from one location to another and conduct international trade. But due to the differences on multiple issues, the United States of America has forced the governing body of SWIFT to disconnect many countries from the system, such as Russia, Iran, Cuba, Syria, etc. But fortunately, Russia and China have developed alternatives to SWIFT. If disconnected from SWIFT, these two systems will allow countries to continue trading with China, Russia, and all participants. Moreover, both countries actively promote their alternatives to SWIFT, and there is a high probability that more banks & financial organizations would love to join them.
Internationalization of Chinese currency
After being disconnected from the dollar-dominated international monetary system, Russia has been actively using the renminbi for international trade. It has allowed the Russian government to minimize the damages caused by the economic sanctions imposed by the collective West. Different countries worldwide have started holding Chinese currency in foreign exchange reserves, and they are reducing their holdings in the USA at an alarming speed. The Chinese government is also taking active steps to internationalize the use of its currency and break the dominance of US dollars.
Recently, China and Brazil decided to drop US dollars in mutual trade. Russia and China are already trading in rubles and renminbi. In the same way, Brazil and Argentina plan to launch a common currency and ditch the US dollar. India and Russia are trading in rupees and other currencies. India is also trying to promote the use of its money, and the good news is that 18 countries worldwide have agreed to conduct trade in the Indian rupee.
BRICS is trying to create a common currency for international trade, and we will have good news in the next 2 to 3 years. As a result of all these activities, the use of the US dollar in international trade has decreased significantly. If all countries stop using the US dollar by developing alternative trade mechanisms, the United States will default on the same day. For example, Saudi Arabia has agreed to sell its oil in Chinese currency, which is bad news for the US dollar's dominance. If it happens, the US will no longer be the world superpower.
China and Russia Are Making Rapid Progress In the IT World.
All leading IT companies are headquartered in the USA, such as Google, Yahoo, Bing, Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, Twitter, Microsoft, YouTube, IBM, etc. We use American IT products daily and conduct essential things without any problems. However, we must remember that the American government, the Pentagon, the military-industrial complex, the corrupt deep state, and greedy politicians dominate American IT companies.
Therefore, if you use American IT products, don't expect your privacy and data to be safe. That is why Russia and China have developed alternatives to Google and other Web services. For example, Russia has Yandex, Rambler, and social media channels. So even if Google exits the Russian market and closes all its services to Russians, they have Yonex and other companies to keep their work going.
In the same way, China has Baidu and various social media channels. Telegram from Russia and WeChat from China are excellent alternatives to WhatsApp. Being an IT professional, I firmly believe that China and Russia will give a tough fight to the technological supremacy of the United States of America in the coming years. That is why the big companies in the USA are unhappy with tech products made available by Russia and China. I have been actively using Yandex, a good search engine from Russia, to avoid the excessive use of Google in everyday life and protect my privacy as much as possible.
If Russia and China continue to work together in multiple sectors, soon we will have a multipolar world free from the hooliganism of the United States of America.
