 <p>On August 14, the Indian government directed the Indian Oil Corp. (IOC) to settle payments for 1 million oil barrels with the UAE in the rupee. IOC is India’s leading petroleum refiner, and the local currency settlement was completed with Abu Dhabi’s National Oil Company. The US dollar was not used in the transaction and this was the first time that India and the UAE used local currency for trade.</p>

 <p>The buck didn’t stop there. Saudi Arabia, the UAE, India, China, and Russia are all putting their local currencies forward. If payment settlements in local currencies continue, the beginning of the end for the US dollar could well begin to take shape. The rising debt crisis in the US would allow <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="BRICS" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/brics.html">BRICS</a> to test the waters without using the dollar. If they succeed, then the US economy might crash, and if they don’t, they have many more chances to get things right.</p>

 <p>BRICS has made it clear that disinvesting in the US dollar is a long-term goal. Therefore, if they don’t bring the dollar down in this decade, they could well perhaps succeed in the next.</p>
