If the Iran War continues, the whole world would be pivoting to China for EVs, wind turbines and solar panels. Chinese EV makers, wind turbine makers and solar panel makers are going to be laughing hilariously all the way to the bank, making some people more envious than ever. Of course, we must not ignore the possibility that China will insists on being paid in Yuan for such sales, which is another nail in the coffin of the mighty US$.
Moreover, Russia and Iran have already insisted on being paid in Yuan for their oil, and if Iran sets up its toll booth guarding the Straits of Hormuz, with tolls collected also in Yuan, that is bound to make someone run amok.
De-dollarization had been brushed aside as a mere irritant to the mighty US$. Now, it may be too late to realize that the world is seriously taking up the de-dollarization move into main street, not sidewalks.
But as always, realization often comes too late to remedy when the shit already is all over the fan.

The real victory is not winning the war by fighting that war directly together with the combatants. The real victory is winning the war without firing a single bullet or losing a single soldier but gaining insight into the strategic dynamics of how to carve out a victory from watching that war from the sidelines.
How much has been learnt, what weapons are working and what weapons are rendered obsolete, what essential targets to take out first, matters in future conflicts. That is more valuable than shouting empty slogans about 'mission accomplished' on the decks of naval ships. Twenty years after that slogan had been shouted and rendered meaningless, the war in Iraq does not seem to be over. Iraq is still seemingly on the side of Iran in this war, with elements siding with Iran attacking USA linked logistics and personnel.
Strangely evident is the perception that China is the biggest winner of the war on Iran. China provided Iran with all the important weapons like hypersonic anti-aircraft carrier missiles and satellite system to sustain Iran's ability to carry out a prolonged war. And China, with its influence on Iran, has been instrumental in giving support to Pakistan to carry out the mediation to bring about a peace deal. We know that Pakistan had contacted Beijing earlier before carrying out its peace mission to bring the USA and Iran to the negotiating table. China probably does not want to be at the forefront of the peace deal, knowing it has been supporting Iran directly with military aid, which weakens its stance when dealing with the USA.
We have to see what the outcome of the negotiating is going to be. As always, the USA is already trying to give the semblance of being in a strong position with J. D. Vance warning Iran not to play around. Who had been playing around with negotiations earlier by carrying out attacks while talks were going on?
And Trump is again coming out to tell the world that Iran has no cards to play other than control of the Straits of Hormuz. Really? What cards does Trump have in most of his negotiating tactics. Basically, just using threats as his only card. Trump does have plenty of cards, a whole deck of jokers, that does not matter, just like all the useless cards he held when negotiating with China. After all, China is said to have been the country making all his cards, lol.
It is so sad, so pathetic, so silly that everyone is still thinking of talking to the devils and hoping for peace. The goals of the American and Israeli terrorists is about wiping out the Arabs and Muslims to take over their land. They will not stop until this objective is achieved. And they know that no one can stop them. There is no law, only the law of the jungle.
After so many years of stupidity, being duped, cheated and lied to by the Americans and the Israelis, the stupid still never learn anything. Any ceasefire is only temporary, to restock for the next killing.
Wake up you silly Arabs and Muslims and all the silly peace makers. You are not looking at the real issue. You cannot negotiate with the devils. The Americans and Israelis have only one goal, wipe out the Arabs and Muslims to take their land.
Any peace deal is for the USA and Israel to regroup, rearm and rebuild or repair its destroyed radar systems that are needed for its interceptor missiles guidance system, pending the next surprise attack on Iran.
The war on Iran had been on the cards for the last 40 odd years. Iran had been preparing for that during those 40 odd years. The Iranians knew it and also knows this is going to be repeated again and again, which is why it is making demands for guarantees that no such surprise attacks will take place henceforth. Whether the USA or Israel take heed is still uncertain until the deal is cut.
But as we all know, negotiating with the devil never leads to a legitimate solution. Unless the devil is subdued, which can happen when de-dollarization accelerates and no one buys USA debts anymore or need to stash mountains of US$ to buy oil that no longer is sold only in Petrodollars. Then, not only Middle East, but the whole world can live in peace.
Iran only needs to hold its 'Trump Card' which is controlling the Strait of Hormuz. That card alone has given Trump much to worry about, begging allies and foes to help with policing the keep the Strait open, engaging in disputes with allies, calling allies cowards for not helping him and threatening to exit from NATO. Putin must be laughing his head off, while Zelenskyy must be peeing in his pants.
Holding that 'Trump Card' already holds every card that Trump has in his hands, lol. No need for other cards.
