Washington, USAMOSCOW, Mar 29 The Ukrainian crisis has accelerated the process of weakening American hegemony, including the dollar. Columnist Mehmet Ali Güller expressed this opinion in an article for the Turkish edition of Cumhuriyet. There are no guarantees left for money in Western banks, property and assets in Europe and the US. The West, as can be seen from the Ukrainian crisis, can encroach on all this, ignoring the law, the author of the material states. For those who fell under sanctions, this state of affairs forces them to take action, look for new ways of trading and generally build a new financial system, the article notes. The Ukrainian crisis, the author emphasizes, is a clash over how the «new world order» will be built. And this clash is a struggle of currencies, not weapons. At present, the world has entered a period when the dominance of the dollar will weaken, national currencies will become important in trade and alternative financial systems will begin to be introduced. This is a process where US and Western sanctions will boomerang on them, Güller concludes.Publico: US began self-destruction of dollar hegemonyEarlier, Vladimir Putin said that Russia would now supply gas to countries from the list of unfriendly states for rubles.
