Anyone dumb enough to still believe the Ukrainians did not develop and already possessed Chemical weapons?
Look what the Ukrainians were asking the Turks before buying the Bayraktar drones. Question No 9.
Is the UAV equipped with a system/mechanism for spraying aerosols with a capacity of more than 20 liters?

And of course, not much to do with Ukraine. Although, I suspect on certain aspects of that subject at least we might agree. Allah forbid! Ehh?

You want to make the most twatish of claims on a public forum and when pulled up on it you have a thousand things to say none of which are to do with what you said originally. Endless distractions. I am hypocrite. I am drive by posting. I am off topic. You were not talking to me. And on and on and on. How about you say something about your actual claim ? Are you gonna stand by it ? Give your arguments that you think support it ? Of course not because it is not something you have derived from any actual reasoning or evidence or logic. It is pure unadulterated prejudice and nothing else.

Short people are less happy and more bitter an angry than tall people. Oh and I happen to be tall but that is just co incidence. Poor people are less happy and more bitter and angry than rich people. Oh and I happen to be rich but that is just co incidence. Dark skinned people are less happy and more bitter and angry than light skinned people. Oh and I happen to be light skinned but that is just a co incidence. English people are less happy and more bitter and angry than non English people. Oh I happen to be non English but that is just co incidence.

All twatish statements. All just indicative of prejudice detached from actual reality. Just like yours. Or am I wrong ?

So have you got anything at all germane to say in defence of your outlandishly twatish claim ? Of course not. Go on I dare you, try and support your absurd claim you chose, as an adult, to make here in public. You said it but having said it you appear to want to talk anything but the actual claim. You know the one YOU made by choice and without any prompting and that was itself 'off topic' as you seem to selectively care about that.

Russia sanctions threaten to erode dominance of US dollar, says IMF

https://www.ft.com/content/3e0760d4-812 ... 2b6f8f5773


The unprecedented financial sanctions imposed on Russia after its invasion of Ukraine threaten to gradually dilute the dominance of the US dollar and result in a more fragmented international monetary system, a top official at the IMF has warned.

Gita Gopinath, the IMF’s first deputy managing director, said the sweeping measures imposed by western countries following Russia’s invasion, including restrictions on its central bank, could encourage the emergence of small currency blocs based on trade between separate groups of countries.

“The dollar would remain the major global currency even in that landscape but fragmentation at a smaller level is certainly quite possible,” she said in an interview with the Financial Times. “We are already seeing that with some countries renegotiating the currency in which they get paid for trade.”

Russia has sought for years to reduce its dependence on the dollar, a campaign that accelerated in earnest after the US imposed sanctions in retaliation to its annexation of Crimea in 2014.

Despite those efforts, Russia still had roughly a fifth of its foreign reserves in dollar-denominated assets just before the invasion, with a notable chunk held overseas in Germany, France, the UK and Japan. Those countries have now banded together to isolate Moscow from the global financial system.

Gopinath said the greater use of other currencies in global trade would lead to further diversification of the reserve assets held by national central banks.

“Countries tend to accumulate reserves in the currencies with which they trade with the rest of the world, and in which they borrow from the rest of the world, so you might see some slow-moving trends towards other currencies playing a bigger role [in reserve assets],” she said.

The dominance of the dollar — backed by strong and highly credible institutions, deep markets and the fact that it is freely convertible — was unlikely to be challenged in the medium term, she added.

A new world of currency disorder looms

Gopinath noted that the dollar’s share of international reserves had fallen from 70 per cent to 60 per cent over the past two decades, with the emergence of other trading currencies, led by the Australian dollar.

About a quarter of the decline in the dollar’s share can be accounted for by greater use of the Chinese renminbi. But less than 3 per cent of global central bank reserves are denominated in Beijing’s currency, IMF data show.

Beijing was in the process of internationalising the renminbi before the current crisis and was already ahead of other nations in adopting a central bank digital currency, said Gopinath. But she added that the renminbi was unlikely to replace the dollar as the dominant reserve currency.

“That would require having full convertibility of the currency, having open capital markets and the institutions that can back [them]. That is the slow-moving process that takes time, and the dollar’s dominance will stay for a while,” she said.

The war would also spur the adoption of digital finance, from cryptocurrencies to stablecoins and central bank digital currencies, she added.

“All of these will get even greater attention following the recent episodes, which draws us to the question of international regulation,” said Gopinath. “There is a gap to be filled there.”

Zelensky in sunny Florida, to fight till the last Ukrainian!

Zelensky fires 'traitors'

There was a rare glimpse of internal dissent in President Zelensky's nightly video address.

He announced he had sacked two senior members of the Ukrainian national security service on the grounds they were “traitors”.

"Today another decision was made regarding anti-heroes” he said. “I do not have time to deal with all the traitors, but they will gradually all be punished.”

He named the two top officials, adding that those "who break the military oath of allegiance to the Ukrainian people... will inevitably be deprived of high military ranks".

“Random generals are out of our way!” he added.

Note the BBC trying to play it down with words like “rare glimpse”…

Yeah right...
