The Petrodollar: How the US Dollar Keeps the World PoorThe U.S. dollar isn't just a currency, it's a weapon. The U.S. dollar is the world's currency and the foundation for international trade. For billions of people across Africa, the Middle East, and Latin America, that single fact determines whether their economy thrives or collapses.This is the story of the petrodollar and how a secret deal struck in Saudi Arabia in 1974 gave the United States financial control over every nation on Earth. This video will explain why countries like Nigeria, Venezuela, Ghana, and Iran have seen their currencies destroyed. We also look at the rising influence of BRICS and why dozens of nations are now risking everything to break free from dollar dominance and build a new global financial order.Watch the video on YouTubePlease make sure to like, comment, share and subscribe.
