It won't have big economic or political repercussions.
Russia's domestic exchange is simply offering to trade futures contracts if people are interested. |

No major problems until it starts trading in Euros, and even with our "pre-emptive" war/s; eventually it will.
The perceived power of the USA resides mainly in the dollar. A thousand years from now, the survivers of the human race will study how we died and think, how utterly stupid. |

Survivors? Are you saying that we should switch to Euros in order to survive?

Sounds reasonable. I'll probably die of old age; completely unrelated to oil trading. |

It is better to keep your fingers away from the keyboard and be thought a fool than to type, submit, and remove all doubt.
The real reason we are in Iraq and want to be in Iran |

Ah, it seems you mised this thread. Sinner countered the Iranian petroeuro bourse conspiracy theory quite well in my opinion.
And if you actually think the US is gonna start a large scale military campaign in Iran like we did in Iraq, then you really havn't been paying attention at all, have you? |
