Russian Gold Reserves Hit Putin-Era High, Buying Frenzy Accelerates

This article is otherwise spot on, but one of the inaccuracies is the author assumes official Chinese gold reserves are actual.  Unofficially, China's gold reserves are vastly under-reported.

Kerry Meets Putin For The First Time In 2 Years As Russia And China Launch First Ever Joint Naval Drill

Obama is letting his lackey Kerry kiss the ring of Putin.  In martial arts terms, US foreign policy is tapping out to Putin.  The CIA/US had no business stirring up the hornet's nest in Ukraine anyway.

Paul Craig Roberts – As Greece Pivots, Putin Unleashing Ultimate Move To Crush The EU And NATO

Roberts doesn't go further, but if the scenario he paints becomes true (he's been prescient up until now), then USDollar hegemony is toast, which would roil global capital markets.  Everybody suffers short-term, but the global debt overhang would be repudiated.  A necessary reset will have winners and losers.  May the most competitive nations win.

Europe Furious That Putin Dares To Retaliate To Sanctions, Blames Economic Slide On Kremlin

As Putin predicted, US-led NATO economic sanctions against Russia will have a boomerang effect, hurting the US and Europe as much, if not more.  Russia is pivoting to other trade partners, including the BRICS and especially China.

The overarching (but unreported) problem is these sanctions are merely accelerating the demise of the USDollar as the global reserve currency.  Well done, US politicians.  You've just hastened the decline of America's standard of living.
