Donald Trump Trump threatens to impose a 100% tariff on countries that conduct business in currency other than the USDollar, adding a new pillar to his tariff platform.
Trump, who has long embraced protectionist trade policies, said the dollar has been “under major siege” for 8yrs. China, India, Brazil, Russia, and South Africa discussed de-dollarization at a summit last year. By contrast, Trump has said he wants the dollar to remain the world’s reserve currency, a pledge he renewed at Saturday’s rally. While Dollar dominance has lessened in recent decades, the US currency still accounted for 59% of official FX reserves in Q1 2024, w/Euro 2nd at almost 20%. Source: Bloomberg, HolgerZ

GERMAN MP: UKRAINE MUST PAY FOR DAMAGE TO NORD STREAM PIPELINES
Some major changes on Germany-Ukraine relationships took place over the recent days... Last week, Germany said it has frozen its military aid to Ukraine, claiming that a domestic budgetary crisis means it can no longer afford to supply Kyiv with new weapons. Olaf Scholz, the German chancellor, told his defence minister this month that there would be no money available for further military aid, according to a new report in the Frankfurter Allgemeine newspaper. Today, Alice Weidel has called for Ukraine to compensate Germany for the damage caused to its economy as a result of the attack: “The economic damage to our country caused by the demolition of Nord Stream presumably ordered by Zelensky - and not Putin as we were led to believe - should be "billed" to Ukraine.” Berlin-Kyiv relations were strained after the German Prosecutor General's Office issued an arrest warrant for a Ukrainian suspected of involvement in the pipeline sabotage.
