The WinePress has noted in other reports that Russia has made critical powerplays that will shape the dynamics of the future of relative currency strength, to wit, weakening the value of the U.S. Dollar and the E.U.’s Euro while strengthening Russia’s Ruble.
Mikhail Mishustin, Russian Prime Minister, explained last week that Western nations are using their currencies as blackmail against Russia.
The dollar and the euro are increasingly being used as an instrument of political pressure and economic blackmail.
Mishustin expressed Russia’s “focus remains on de-dollarization” of their economy. In other words, a near if not a total elimination of the use of the dollar in transactions and contracts.
RT wrote, ‘According to Mishustin, in the face of sanctions Russia has to strengthen interaction with its partners and make more active use of multilateral mechanisms. In particular, agreements should be reached on a free-trade zone, cooperation in transport and logistics, as well as the use of national currencies in mutual settlements between CIS countries.’
More recently Finance Minister Anton Siluanov referred to these Western currencies as “toxic.”
The American and European currencies are toxic for us. What should we do with them?
What do we need them for? That is, we are selling our own wealth – gas, while getting candy wrappers, toxic candy wrappers. Who needs them?
He spoke to students at a university in Moscow
RT further explained what Silunov was referring to: ‘The comparison comes from a popular children’s game in the Soviet Union, in which kids would collect gum and candy wrappers. Different wrappers would have different values according to their rarity. For instance, an American gum wrapper would be more valuable because it wasn’t sold in the country. In reality, of course, they were worthless.’
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
For wisdom is a defence, and money is a defence: but the excellency of knowledge is, that wisdom giveth life to them that have it.
Ecclesiastes 7:12
This really isn’t much of a surprise, as the U.S. especially has the petrol dollar in place to get monopoly share of the global economy, and Russia and the East are so sick and tired of being under America’s heal. The sanctions levied against Russia have done nothing but hurt us whilst empowering Russia and strengthening their relationships with China, the “stans” and other Middle Eastern nations, India, and so forth.
America’s currency will eventually be nearly worthless at some point in the future. When? I am not sure, but that future is rapidly approaching.
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

I believe Russia will also be part of World War III and they’ll be fighting alongside China, Iran, and maybe North Korea.
I love to think on this: Unlike during those illegal wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and the so-called war on terror, America will NOT be living in their Shangri-La of watching TV, playing games, living in sin, enjoying retirement, welcoming new neighbors with a pie and indoctrinating them, and going to church-never mind the fact that over a million falsely accused and innocent Iraqi men women and children were being tortured and killed by these over glorified mercenaries once called US troops-Americans were living in their phony “good old days” bubble and flowers, butterflies, lollipops, teletubbies, and picnics in the park-that will NOT be the case when World War III arrives.
Andy, I agree 100% with what you say, however I think Russia will attack Israel before they team up with China. I know if Turkey attacks Israel Russia will join them, and God will fight that war for Israel, and he will leave 1/6 of them so they will go tell others how great Israels God is, and I think that will happen before WW 3 .
I need to immerse myself in the King James Bible, my only trouble is how to apply it to today, events, what certain things mean, but I love it all the same!
Bryan and Jacob are like tutors to me as well as true pastors, not some obese hireling that wants your money so he can load up on KFC after the service, no true men of God!
No, they are true men of God!
Not these hirelings that are obese and only care about Five Guys Burgers & Fries, or some effeminate droning hireling with his girly demeanor and his lacy underwear!
Andy, I know the psalms 83 war comes before WW3. And I think the rapture happens when Israel is being attacked by her enemies, and what I have been taught it looks like all hell is about to break lose in the middle east. Chad Thomas ( watchman on the wall 88) he is great at keeping us informed as to what is happening in the middle east, as well as other topics. His videos are short ,however they are very informative
