Brazil and Argentina to start preparations for a common currency
Other Latin American nations will be invited to join plan which could create world’s second-largest currency union
Brazil and Argentina will this week announce that they are starting preparatory work on a common currency, in a move which could eventually create the world’s second-largest currency bloc.
South America’s two biggest economies will discuss the plan at a summit in Buenos Aires this week and will invite other Latin American nations to join.
The initial focus will be on how a new currency, which Brazil suggests calling the “sur” (south), could boost regional trade and reduce reliance on the US dollar, officials told the Financial Times. It would at first run in parallel with the Brazilian real and Argentine peso.
“There will be . . . a decision to start studying the parameters needed for a common currency, which includes everything from fiscal issues to the size of the economy and the role of central banks,” Argentina’s economy minister Sergio Massa told the Financial Times.
“It would be a study of mechanisms for trade integration,” he added. “I don’t want to create any false expectations . . . it’s the first step on a long road which Latin America must travel.”
An official announcement is expected during Brazilian president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva’s visit to Argentina that starts on Sunday night, the veteran leftist’s first foreign trip since taking power on January 1.
Sorry correction, hopefully the victims aren't ChineseGod forbid the victims aren't Chinese
I thought it was a racial hate crime for sure, but then there is a chinese wechat floating around saying the shooter was Chinese.Sorry correction, hopefully the victims aren't Chinese
However reading coolgod twitter reply, my worst fear confirmed looks like many Chinese/asian victims
I wonder who is responsible, white supremacists or black street gangs?
Why aren't Asian Americans arming themselves? They keep getting targeted. Every Chinese American should carry a gun when inside the country
They're undermining Modi (India) IMHO which is tangentially related to that country's continuing support of Russia. But thus effort to blemish Modi will backfire against Britain and the West aims to bring the leadership to heel and will maybe inflame intra ethnic tensions between Indo-Brits and Pakistani-Brits both within the UK government and the general society since they do bring their geopolitical issues within the UK itself.
But you can criticize the government in a democracy!
The UK ruling class are using the unpopular face of their Indian servant Prime Minister to ram through draconian laws that they will be able to use in the future, such as laws against general strikes, even as UK public servants are striking in protest over cost of living and France is afire with a million man strike
