That's a very good question.
I read with interest Trump's statements vis-a-vis the BRICS, and I do not necessarily think he will link the two that closely. He'll probably bifurcate and deal with Russia individually.
My concern when it comes to Russia-Ukraine is that there could be an effort to negotiate over the Ukrainians' heads with Moscow and over the heads of Canada and our European allies as well. I see the effort by the administration to end the war, but not necessarily to end the war on the best terms for Ukraine.
When it comes to the BRICS and the international monetary system, it's a very good question about the dollar as the central reserve currency. In many respects, there's been conflicting information here. On the one hand, we see Russia and China actively working to create an alternative system, and Russia's economic resilience thus far points to an ability to perhaps be somewhat diversified away from the dollar, but on the other hand, when there's an economic crisis, everyone wants to flock to the dollar, and the dollar remains incredibly strong. It still is the central reserve currency that gives the United States great leverage, as people want to be part of the U.S. financial system.
I don't really see Brazil and India siding with China and Russia and perhaps going in that direction, but it is something that many experts in the global financial system are really watching out for to see how that progresses over the next few years.
