Nobody wants rubles.
What about BRICS?
Chinese banks halting transactions with Russia “en masse” highlights the growing impact of U.S. sanctions and the increasing caution among Chinese financial institutions to avoid secondary sanctions
Hit them where it hurts.
If I’m not mistaken aren’t the majority of transactions between Russia and China handled by teapot banks
Not a day too soon
Somebody ain’t paying their bills.
Let em cook!
I love how BRICS countries are in the alliance even though pretty much everyone hates each other there. It’s like, *”let’s all pretend we all get along and to fool the west we’re better and richer”*. Except they only fool themselves, not us.
soon china will demand payment in other ways… like ‘square kilometres of prime siberian territory’.
Chinese banks have so many Chinese customers and corporations that work heavily with US companies and dollars that if there are secondary sanctions on them, their customers will rage and potentially leave the Chinese bank for another so they can continue running *their* businesses. So it’s easier to sacrifice processing RUB transactions than risk all USD.
This is one of those things that I think even the Chinese government has difficulty controlling because the US effectively pits all Chinese banks against each other in a prisoner’s dilemma.
Giving a Chinese company an excuse not to pay its bills to Russia was genius
This is likely the real reason Russia has upped the pressure so much. Sanctions were always a lethal blow from the US towards Russia, as long as China did not bail them out.

And China profited

But, if China stops this, Russia is fucked and fucked quickly. They have a clock running now.
Still wanna chop that internet line Russia?
Same with Turkey. It’s over for Russia.
China is playing Chess while Russia is playing tic tac toe.
Remember guys, sanctions don’t work. It’s critical to keep this in mind! /s
Nice!!
Very interesting to see!
Your economy vs the economy she tells you not to worry about.
china: “bro I’m cashing out before putin makes the russian roebel fall because he can’t manage the fkn frontline”
Unlike Russia, China understands that War is bad for business.
Rubles are like cancer money huh?
assuming this is a result of the recent meeting between US and Chinese officials?
Hopefully this is the first step of USA to pressure the WHOLE China to stop doing transactions with Russia.
IBecsusr it’s enough that People’s Bank of China won’t stop doing transactions with Russia for all the other who stop to not matter much beyond being a slight annoyance.
