An internal Russian document reviewed by Bloomberg reveals that the Kremlin has prepared a set of proposals that may open the door for Russia to use the U.S. dollar again, as part of a potential broad economic partnership with the administration of U.S. President Donald Trump.
The high-level memo, prepared during the current year, outlines seven points where Moscow believes that Russian and American economic interests could intersect, following an agreement to end the war in Ukraine. These points include cooperation between the two countries in supporting fossil fuels at the expense of green alternatives, along with joint investments in natural gas, offshore oil, and vital raw materials, as well as significant potential gains for American companies.
