Venezuela’s President Maduro Sparks Global De-Dollarization Movement

Venezuela’s President Maduro Sparks Global De-Dollarization Movement

According to Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, there is an inevitable decline in the global use of the US dollar.

Various initiatives challenging the dominance of the US dollar are emerging, signifying a sustained and accelerated de-dollarization of global commerce and trade.

Maduro attributes this shift to US sanctions, prompting nations to seek alternatives and reduce their dependence on the world’s reserve currency.

He highlights African nations as key contributors to the ongoing process of de-dollarization, emphasizing that as the world becomes more multipolar and multicentric, a basket of currencies will emerge.

Maduro also cites Zimbabwe’s introduction of a gold-backed digital currency as a significant indication of future developments.

This currency serves both as a means of payment and a store of value for citizens. Additionally, Maduro mentions the economic alliance BRICS, comprising Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa.
