 <p><strong>“For the formation of a new and fair world order, a transition to trade in national currency is necessary. As well as strengthening cooperation on energy, industry, and modern technologies. All this plays an important role,”</strong> he said.</p>
 <p>Mokhber called on the SCO to intensify local currency payments and stop using the US dollar. <strong>“So we, in particular, call on the SCO member countries to intensify settlements in national currencies,”</strong> he announced. The SCO and <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="BRICS" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/brics.html">BRICS</a> are coming up with different ideas to use local currency and not the US dollar.</p>
