Indonesia, UAE, Argentina, Brazil, Iran, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, etc. While these countries are not actively 100% ditching the dollar right now the simple fact that they are starting to use alternatives speaks of a trend. And we still need to wait for the BRICS to release their plans on their currency, after which the process will accelerate more. It is not only 3 countries, and it is, in my opinion, not so important how much economic power they have, but rather that the strength of the dollar lies in its universal use.
People have been saying this for over a decade. It hasn’t happened. Heck, Gordon Chang’s entire career is based off writing a “China is about to collapse” book every couple years. If anything, their economic position has continued to strengthen.
