you on as a reserve currency that's according to the latest survey by the swiss economic powerhouse u. b. s. countries have been speaking to shift their currencies from the dollar in order to be less exposed to us dominance over the global financial system, as ortiz, rachel blevins explains. b, u. s. dollar may still hold the title of the world's reserve currency, but its biggest competitors continue to gain ground, especially as washington steps up its attempts to use economic power as a weapon against countries it doesn't get along with. but while the us has been turning up distinctions, countries like china has been on the ra, if in fact, according to the latest annual reserve survey from u. b as 85 percent of central banks say they either hold or want to hold the chinese you want. and that's no coincidence. as mainstream analysts admit that washington's campaign to target and isolate russia this year has led to concern
12:16 pm
that other countries will be next on the list. and that they could receive similar treatment if they don't go along with demands from the us. as a result of the current economic climate, central banks average share of us dollar holdings was 63 percent in june, down significantly from 69 percent in 2021. this as other countries, such as argentina and iran, have expressed interest in joining the bricks group of countries, which as it stands right now represents around 40 percent of the world's population and 25 percent of the global economy. so useless together with bricks partners. we are developing reliable alternative mechanisms for international settlements. we are exploring the possibility of creating an international reserve currency based on a basket of currencies. and with the western campaign to isolate from swift, moscow's alternative payment system has only continued to grow and now works with
12:17 pm
more than $50.00 for an organization from 12 countries. this all comes as china confirms it, is in the process of creating a you on reserve fun with indonesia, malaysia, hong kong, chill, a and singapore with each country planning to contribute around $2200000000.00 presenting a clear challenge to the dominance of the us dollar, meanwhile, countries like egypt are also looking for ways to survive without the big buck. as cairo sees the ways in which the current sanctions against russia stand to hurt its own economy. russian, theresa russo among the biggest spenders in the egyptian tourism sector. from that perspective, it makes sense for egypt to try to maintain these relations. the only way to do so under the current sanctions regime is to bypass the u. s. lead financial system which has become unduly restrictive, and it's by threats from the u. s. other countries are continuing to do big business with russia, with reports noting then an indian cement company may be historic purchase of russian call and you on rather than dollars. that could also be the case in the

future for saudi arabia, mid reports from earlier this year that the nation was considering one day selling oil and china currency, which would have a major impact on the energy industry. it comes as no surprise that the u. s. is not happy and it has been critical of all threats to the dollars dominance. who wouldn't like to see mechanisms that are designed to prop up the rubel or to undermine the dollar based financial system or to sicken vents of financial sanctions was started as a trickle is beginning to look like a stream. and then all comes in response to a us government that knows exactly how powerful its currency is and has been years working to weaponized it against other countries. the only problem, all those countries are now starting to show there is strength in numbers. as a pushback with increasing power, the problem is that there's a real there's a real split in where the united states should go even further in washington dc.
12:19 pm
i've been identifying what i think is a sincere split between the federal reserve and commercial banking interest in the us and white house policy and us treasury policy. i don't think those 2 groups are on the same page, and i think there's a very strong group of people within the us who realized that having the world's reserve currency is a burden we can no longer afford to have. and lar, encouraging this kind of d dollarization, the big question now is, when will saudi arabia break their currency pag to the us dollar? once the saudis do that? i think we, we wanna, we wanna look at that as a kind of step function in the, the rate of the dollar taishan. we're going to move into a different regime in terms of globalization of other countries. now we need clashes, broken out in the democratic republic of congo between the countries army and a rebel grape which accused rhonda is accused of backing. that's just
12:20 pm
a day off to the leaders. rwanda, an congo reached an agreement to de escalate military tensions on the border. the rebel group named m 23 has refused to recognize the latest p steel. both sides accused each other in negotiating the latest facilities which have led to the residents fleeing their homes. tensions have been on the rise since the spring of this year and peak last month when the surgeons re claim control of the congolese town of boone anger. the democratic republic of congo says m. 23 is a proxy of the rwandan military. a claim that rwanda staunchly denies. now the rebel group changed its name to march 23rd movement to m 23 to honor the date of significant date of the ceasefire. deal with the d. r. c. now, under the terms of the agreement, the unit was then integrated into congo least military. however,
12:21 pm
the rebels turned against the d. r. c. government emit pew conditions in the army and unwillingness to implement the terms of that deal. most recently, the d r. c, designated the m 23, a terrorist group, and since then, refuse to hold direct peace talks. now political analysts broke down the latest round of clashes for us from both the london and the congolese point of view . a counter intuitive is actually to ensure this said to say today and it 3030 and it says the security concern photo is that when, when the crash is taking place, some of the rockets being is thrown on the on the parent on the wanda. so i think what is imperative for d? c is to take a time to analyze why to him, to enter in the fighting

a fall. because you may address the same but not to address their child is dominant thing. solar panel production is a threat to the west screen agenda that's according to new port from the power spaced international energy agency, which once western countries to rapidly increase their share of the industry. now china produces more than 80 percent of the world's poly silicon, which is used for solar panels at a fraction of the cost of western competitive. but the international energy agency have cautioned that the e u in u. s. shouldn't depend on those supplies and should instead boost their own manufacturing, particularly if the e wants to reach it 0 mission go within the next 3 decades. it's all so called on the u. s. to could drupal it, solar panel production,

reportedly to avoid trade policy risks with beijing. china has been instrumental in bringing down costs worldwide for solar power, with multiple benefits for clean energy transitions. at the same time, the level of geographical concentration in global supply chains also poses potential challenges that governments need to address those well, struggles with severe energy crisis due to a disruption in the supply chains. the thought of china, perhaps controlling a developing energy source, is raising west in fears. but whereas the previously has accused beijing of ignoring it screen agenda, it's goal of reaching 0 mission targets by 2050 could now rely entirely on china independent expert. andrew long says, china's rule in the global move to green energy is vital. a time as the walls,

thinkers, manufacturer, and the biggest trader and $130.00 countries of china is the largest father. compare would only for the $740.00 united states to try to embed it in, well, the flying very chain, especially on the energy of the green energy. i mean, the solar panel, what's all, all the, most of the world's manufacturing sorta, panel designers, together with the kind of special mechanism minerals. most of them are in china. so i think that this is the reality. and the irony is that in the united states, there was a cam saying that i still don't have the other well my recipe of climate change and best of interest. ready protective oil and, and, and also bills and most of all the don't have the infrastructure. so the more affordable solar panels a to the world. but in this age group all power,

being out white band in the u. k. now, the british government's new bill is unfeasible. that's according to a petition for more than a dozen rights groups. they say the legislation would actually clamp down on people's rights to express their opinions on social networks. international editor of the morning star newspapers, steve sweeney says, the bill would strengthen the government's power to decide which media the public can access. this is irma of great concern, not just to turn this but to freedom and democracy. really. this is the bill that's being presented. the online safety bill is gives unprecedented powers to the states to determine what media people can access. the amendments don't really offer any safeguards the i can see. so this is really targeting an alternative or alternative viewpoint. and of course the situation in ukraine has made them kind of want to,
12:27 pm
to focus on so much more. because at the moment in the british media, in particular, and the same in the united states, i know that there is only one narrative that is being presented to the public. and that narrative is the same narrative as the british government. as the united states government, as nato, this is incredible by any country that calls and calls itself a democracy to restrict the you know, the right to information in such a way, i think is, is absolutely unprecedented. and we should, we should, we should do all that we can to oppose it. let's see, global news update from us, our chance national. we do hope you'll join us again. next balance. ah, look forward to talking to you all. that technology should work for people.
