in 1974 Kissinger made a secret deal with Saudi Arabia price oil in dollars, get military protection in return. the us denied this deal existed for 40 years until Bloomberg got the documents in 2016. now Saudi Arabia joined brics and is open to non-dollar oil trade. the architecture is quietly shifting. would love to hear what this community thinks.
